Life Mechanics

"In Wildoria, survival isn't just about dodging bullets—it's about staying fed, rested, and energized enough to work another shift."

The Vital Resource System​

Unlike simple games with just a "health bar", Wildoria simulates a living organism through three distinct vital resources:

ResourceRepresentsUsed For
HP (Health)Physical integrityCombat, Fall Damage, Environmental Hazards
LIFE (Energy)Stamina & HungerWorking Shifts, Sprinting
MOTIVATIONMental FocusGathering, Crafting, Professional Tasks

LIFE (Energy & Hunger)​

Your LIFE bar is your fuel. Every action you take in the city drains this resource.

Consumption​

  • Working Shifts: Starting a shift as a Delivery Guy or Miner consumes a significant chunk of Energy.
  • Crafting: Focus and physical effort drain Life.
  • Existing: Even doing nothing slowly burns calories.

Consequences​

  • Low Energy: Movement speed slows down.
  • Zero Energy: You pass out. You cannot work, craft, or fight until you recover.

Recovery​

To restore Life, you must eat or rest.

  • Snacks: Quick energy boost.
  • Meals: Sitting down at a restaurant restores huge amounts of Life.
  • Sleep: Log out in a Hotel or your Apartment to recover over time.

HP (Hit Points)​

HP is your capability to withstand physical trauma.

Damage Sources​

  • Combat: Attacks from bandits or wildlife.
  • Environment: Falling from heights, radiation zones.

Recovery​

Unlike Life, HP does not regenerate quickly on its own (unless you have specific Talents).

  • Medical Items: Bandages stop bleeding, special foods restore HP.
  • Services: Visit a Doctor player or the Hospital.

Mana (Magical Energy)​

Mana is the fuel for your magical abilities and skills. It flows through the ley lines of Wildoria and those attuned to it can shape reality itself.

Consumption​

  • Casting Skills: Every spell or ability draws from your Mana pool.
  • Enchanted Items: Some magical gadgets drain Mana when activated.

Regeneration​

Mana regenerates passively over time. The smarter you are, the faster you recover—Intelligence sharpens your connection to the magical weave.

  • Resting: Sitting in a safe zone or meditating speeds up recovery.
  • Talents: Certain arcane talents enhance your natural Mana flow.

Running Dry​

If your Mana pool empties, you can no longer cast spells. Wait for your energy to return, or drink a Mana Potion to instantly restore a portion.

Motivation (Professional Drive)​

Your Motivation represents your mental stamina and willingness to perform professional labor.

  • The Fuel for Work: You need motivation to gather resources (mining, fishing) or craft items.
  • Efficiency: As you master a profession, tasks become less draining.
  • Recovery: Motivation regenerates slowly over time, or faster when sleeping in a bed.

See Motivation System for cost scaling details.

City Residents (NPCs)​

The city is alive, and its residents operate on their own schedules.
