    if you're reffering to arcanum, some you need to bribe the followers, others are there just as decoration.

    Yeah, I think the food is just something to make the game look a little more fancy. But you can get sauced off a couple of bottles of wine, it makes your dialoge options "dumber" for a littlewhile, depending on how much you drink.

    Hehehe, I made a little mod...buying a drink from the bartender casts Disentegrate on you :smile:. Very funny, because he then asks "Anything else sir?"...don't know why it's funny though...

    As for food, it contains calories, amino acids and all the other good things that you need to grow up big, fat and lazy with. Therefore eat as much of it as possible.

    Are your mods uploaded anywhere, Jarinor? I'd like to try them out.

    Anyway, some foods can be used to raise followers reaction to you. Some like wine can be used to lower perception as well. I imagine that would be useful if you wanted to pickpocket or prowl around someone. Get 'em good and drunk first. Though to be fair, your alignment should go down more for doing so. It's really evil to roll a drunk guy.

    Oh yeah, and some food items are ingredients for certain tech schematics.

    The mod is pretty crap...just testing things out in it (by coincidene, the mod is called "Tester"...). I can make people follow you when you "examine" them though, and I made my very own auto-death script :smile:. Very handy for making a town full of dead people - just kill them all off when the mod starts (making their hitpoints 0 in WorldEd just makes a standing dead person :smile:.

    IIRC eating food restores fatigue.
