Slime Types

Pure Slimes

Pure Slimes only have one breed, and are the basic Slime that is produced from Slime Incubators. When fed a Plort of another Breed, they transform into a Largo Slime, and their max size increases to 4.

Largo Slimes

Largo Slimes are combinations made when a Pure Slime eats a Plort of another Breed. They inherit the diet, favorite food, and Plorts produced of each breed, making them the best in terms of farming.

Tarr Slimes

When a Largo Slimes feeds on a third type of Plort, it will turn into a Tarr. These evil Slimes feed on Largos, Pure Slimes, and Players, growing in size after feeding and corrupting eaten slimes into Tarrs. Keep your farming area tidy to prevent these monsters from being born.

Feeding Slimes

Each breed of Slime will have a specific diet that is shown when hovering over them using mods like Jade. When fed an item or mob they eat, the following happens:

• If the Slime is less than its max size (3 for "Pure" slimes), the Slime will grow.
• Slimes will be healed by 1 heart.
• If Slimes are at least size 3, they will produce a Plort of its breed.
• If Slime is a Largo, it will also produce a Plort of it's sub-breed.
• Slimes will be happier and their happiness will stop decreasing (if they were starving).

Favorite Food

A Slime may have a favorite food in either item form, entity form, or both. When fed one of these, Slimes will produce an additional Plort for each breed.

Experiment with a Slimes diet and deduce their favorite foods!

Happiness

Slimes have a happiness value that will raise or lower depending on certain actions that take place. When a Slime spawns into the world, it will have half of the maximum. The happiness system is a work in progress that will be gradually expanded upon.

Increasing Happiness

A Slime's Happiness will increase from the following events:

• When it feeds. Eating its favorite food will double the increase.
• When feeding near at least 3 Slimes of the same breed (including largo) it will get a small happiness boost. It will gain a bigger boost when near 6-7.

Decreasing Happiness

A Slime's happiness will decrease from the following events:

• Slimes Happiness gradually decreases when in a starving state.
• When killed, a Slime's happiness will greatly decrease.
• When fed, if a Slime is crowded (Near 8 or more Slimes of the same breed) happiness will greatly decrease.

States

A Slime has 3 different happiness states: Happy, Neutral, Sad, and Furious. Each state will cause or limit certain behaviors.

Happy

Happy Slimes will perform their specified positive behaviors if they exist! The more happy a Slime is, the more it will perform it's positive effects.

Neutral

The basic happiness state of a Slime. It won't perform any negative behaviors, but it won't perform any positive ones either.

Incubated Slimes are born in this state!

Sad

Sad Slimes will still produce Plorts, but they won't be happy about it. They'll perform negative behaviors more and more as their happiness decreases.

Furious

At extremely low levels of happiness, Slimes will attack the player. They will frequently perform negative behaviors, won't produce Plorts, and won't turn into Largo Slimes.
