Chocobo Food Satisfaction

Re: Chocobo Food Satisfaction

I've only been feeding Ayu Sandorian Carrots, she gobbles them up in one gulp, and then the next day shes starving, go figure :\

Lol, if you excersised them till they have almost nothing left on that health bar. Then feeding to full will cause the next day for them to be starving. Did it before, I excersised to half that bar feed to full. Next day got "Not hungry but not full". Used all that bar up and feed to full, next day got "starving".

Also as I've found out you should worry about wasting that bar down, it won't let you waste it down completly. Once it's to low for that personal care plan you just get an error message saying the chocobo doesn't have the energy to do that plan.

Yea i've sort of guessed that much, but seriously... chocobo has so little energy altogether, 2 walks are enough to wear her down immensily... though thats probably because her endurance is nothing to boast about

2 walks is all you get? I usually can take mine on 4 regular walks, or tell it a story like 8 times.

The little chicks have insanely low stamina, but I remember noticing that it built up from day to day, because one day I could suddenly take her on three walks, when the day before she had been too exhausted to go on a third walk.

I think I could take her on four or so and then the graphic got updated to the adolescent graphic and...I remember being suprised by this...there was NOT an accompanying large HP boost with the graphic update. I think there was a slight one, however.


Now that my chocobo is adult, it doesn't seem to be gaining any more HP, but I have noticed something...

As the care plans get more strenuous, even when I feed my chocobo to full, it does NOT have a full HP bar. I really think this is care plan related, though, and not food related.

Yes, I've already tested that and posted result on the CSP thread about that. Evaluating by Health bar and pixels lost it's ends up being something like:

Rest = +2 pixel
Basic Care = -1 pixel
Walk town = -2 pixel
Music = -2 pixel
excersise alone = -4 pixel
excersise in group = -4 pixel
play with children = -4 pixel
play with other chocobo = -4 pixel
carry package = -4 pixel
exhibit to public = -4 pixel

Mine has just turned adult so the drain from adult ones I don't know yet, if it follows the trend though then I would guess the 3 new adult ones will drain out about 6 pixels worth.

Re: Chocobo Food Satisfaction

My little Dame Illusion is 11 days old - she eats 1 x Vomp Carrot and 2 x Sand'orian carrots every day, which she swallows in one gulp.

I've also noticed that when I feed her a Sand'orian Carrot she does a cute animation where she jumps up into the air - and recently I've been getting the message "Your chocobo is recieving a lot of affection and should respond to anything you give it now - she's in excellent confidition".

I was wondering if this was possibly the secret affect of Sand'Orian Carrrots, or does this happen with every food?

I've noticed this with my chocobo too, but I'm quite happy to feed her on a daily basis.

Lol, the hunger is due to draining her health bar down. Food restores that health bar, if the chocobo was completly full then it can restore an entire health bar. If the chocobo was "not hungry but not full" it will restore half of the health bar.

As for that cutscene I got it frequently and never fed it san d'oria carrots.

For my chocobo,

Basic Care = -1 pixel
Listen to Music = -2 pixels
Walk in Town = -2 pixels
Exercise in Group = -3 pixels
Play with Children = -3 pixels
Play with Chocobos = -3 pixels

My chocobo's "stamina" has ranged from ~25 watch-overs to ~33 watch-overs. I didn't notice an increase when she got to adolescence. All her stats are still Poor, though.


Back onto topic...

I've got some more food data and I'm updating the initial post.

*word of warning* for those of you who were wondering...
If you feed your adolescent Carrot Paste, the Affection will *decline* and the food satisfaction is very low.

I got some tentative Affection results for Sharug and Azouph greens, but my chocobo got full before I could test more fully. I'll have to wait for another day to finish that.

Re: Chocobo Food Satisfaction

Interesting, Nakti. It sounds kind of like what I would expect when you try to feed your 3 year old baby food, though. Sort of the chocobo's way of saying: "C'mon, mommy, I'm a big kid now!" I'd wager that herb and veggy pastes go over about as well during adolescent stage, too.

Thank you for the vote^^

I've got some more data to update in the next day or two and I've devised some more food tests to narrow the satisfaction range. I've been testing this whole time, but I can only do one test per RL day so it goes slowly.

Re: Chocobo Food Satisfaction

Shameless bump and request for Sticky!!

(since my lack of gil prevents me from doing this myself)

The main values are done!, but I'm continuing to refine them and will continue to update. I'm also currently evaluating Affection levels on these foods.
