Food and Fighting

[Egavactip]

Food in Angband should be:

1) VERY SIMPLE.

2) Not needing micro-management by the player

3) Totally unconnected to healing spells, potions, abilities of all kinds.

4) Unable to be over-consumed (VERY IMPORTANT).

5) Accompanied by impossible-to-miss alerts when hunger and starvation begins.


Also, any food system designed for Angband that does not meet all of these requirements should be able to be TURNED OFF through a menu option, so that players can forego ridiculous effects like being fatally slowed because they are almost, but not quite, "full."

So, simply, a timer to death that can be reloaded?

With the balance based mostly on how easy/hard it is to get the resource to reload it?

That's too much like real food!
