Hi guys,

I've been using apples on the pig so far and it seems fairly slow going, its about half way through level 3 and I've had it for 5 or 6 days. I've noticed there are two more expensive foods but there both still only +6 hunger.

Do they increase the exp gained per minute? Or does the hunger go down more slowly? Or am I missing something completely obvious? lol

Cheers

Yeah upgrade then at level 5 or even before I'd just use pigmeat. Buy it off players 200k a piece and it fully restores satisfaction. I think meat restores like 175 total while others 10-20. Work out what's cheaper.

Note being aware satisfaction total increases by 25? at 3,5,7 and 10.

I havent played for a while so numbers may be wrong

Erm, i may be wrong but I dont think the food makes them level any quier.

Apples can only be used up to level5? So once your pig hit 5 you can't use them anymore.

it doesn't matter what food you use, the pig levels the same speed.
I think someone said you need 28 days of active game time for the pig to hit level 10.

Thanks guys great feedback.

The pig can autopot but only one 'batch' of apples. It wont bring another in from your bag when it uses the 10 you have placed in the top right corner.

I'm undecided on the pig meat because its 200k. To gain 175 hunger with apples would be 87k =/

Hey Shane, nah I checked this out yesterday. I put the apples in the pigs top right hand box and went AFK. They were all gone when I came back. Although I left the laptop on all day while I was out at work, so only gained a few AFK lvling hours before the hunger was at zero xD

It will auto pot the stack... E.g. 10 is the stack for apples.

Once those 10 are gone, you need to manually put another 10 back in it's slot.

Meat is not worth while when you can use Apples, but after lvevl5 you can't use apples, so may be cheaper.

The autopot will work as long as you aren't already on 0.

If the hunger ticks down to 0, it pots. If you put the stack in when the companion is already at 0, then it doesn't work.

Fresh meat is key... 1 mill = 5 meats or more on TM. They stack so just put them in the slot and afk, you need around 4meats for about 10 hours afk time. Apples are only good when your online if your afk leveling it you need meats as you only need to stack a few.

I think it’s totally retarded to have a system that incentivizes having the server afk. Make the pig level like game gold where it only accrues when you are active or hunting and reduce the total time some. What a waste to leave my comp running for a month non stop to level the pig - talk about global warming issues...

Keeps the server usercount inflated and look better on LOMCN front page, which is key in making your server seem great.

Think that was the point, get people to stay online all day and night to massively boost the user count of the server.

You say it's to make the Usercount look better but people afk leveling pigs are going to be active player anyway its expensive to keep a pig afk eating non-stop.. Nobody is doing it for a laugh like.

People afk levelling pigs wouldn’t be leaving themselves in sz without the pigs.

People in sz when they wouldn’t be online obviously boosts the server count

And what's the problem? That is good for the server and good for all the ppl that plays the server, as it means more potential ppl come to play here.
