Balanced nutrition - fruit on the island biomes

Hello everyone!

Here is just an idea that came to my mind after some hiking on the floater island.
Wouldn't it be nice to grab some fruit off the trees?
I mean eating fish all day long is fine, but how about some variety?
Even acid mushrooms were edible back then.
Fruit could even regrow... fish are... well... gone forever after I make them a meal.

Let me know what you think :)

    I was thinking the same way. Food is good, but what about vitamines? I would like to see the need for vitamines, not essential but if you dont have them (lets say eat a fruit every 3rd day) you character start to slow down or has problems to see sharp. Something like that. Combine this with a new base module (glasshouse) or something buildable inside the base (like a garden) where you can raise the fruits but not for free. It would be cool if you would need a resource (like water) to raise fruits. This would work like the bio power generator. Have 1-2 water in your inventory, put fruits inside your garden or whatever, push a button and here we go. No water, no multiplication. The rest is just a question of balance. Maybe having a watertank as module or inventory as well. There are so many possiblities.

    I would also like to see the same system for fishes. If the big aquarium comes (I know it will) you have to feed them. No fishfood, no breed. Also the system could be the same. Having 1-2 units of fishfood on yourself, push a button on the aquarium (feed) and here we go. Growing them for free is a little bit cheap.

    It should be possible for fruits in the garden or fishes in the bowl to survive without resources (for temp. storage) but miltiplication should only be possible with your intervention like giving them needed resources like water or food.

    The problem would be that, in the spawn zone, there are no trees.
    I would recommend the applying of buffs through a balanced nutrition of fruits and meat.
    But there also have to be some poisonous or unripe fruits to let the player learn.
    Also, an overconsumption of fruits of ine kind could have negative effects on the player.
