Food

Food is another important Resource for your colony. While less urgent than Oxygen or Water, nevertheless food is very important to Colonists. If the food ever runs out, colonists get very sad. A colonist that misses a single meal may spontaneously explode.

Food may be produced in a Greenhouse or Farm, or may be imported from Earth by Rockets.

The colony can store up to 400 kg of food at first, but more Food may be stored by converting Greenhouses into Refrigerators. Refrigerators increase the Food storage limit of the colony by 400 kg, and become increasingly valuable as the colony grows in size. Greenhouses converted to Refrigerators will no longer produce Food, so net Food production will decrease by 2 kg per sol when the conversion occurs.
