Hygiene is one of the most important factors of daily life aboard the Daedalus. The agents of Mush are guaranteed to become Dirty while doing their shroomy deeds, which naturally puts suspicion on anybody caught with less-than-perfect hygiene. Crew members will be expected to report exactly how and why they've become dirty, and are advised to avoid it if possible. Certain crew members are even expected to never be dirty due to the nature of their roles.

Measures against Dirtiness

Holding the Stainproof Apron will protect you from most actions that can make you Dirty. (see below for a specific list)

To remove the Dirty status from your character, take a Shower in either of the dorms. If both showers have been dismantled, an emergency shower will be available in the Refectory, which can only be used once a day.

Showering takes 2 Action Point in regular showers, or 3 Action Point in the emergency Refectory shower. Holding either the Soap or Super Soaper reduces the cost by 1 Action Point. The Super Soaper will also remove 1 Spore from your body when you shower.

Adverse effects of being Dirty

Icon Finola loses 1 Morale for every cycle she spends dirty due to her Icon Germaphobe trait, meaning that she should avoid being dirty at all cost.

Prohibited actions

Due to the dangers of the Mush, the NERON AI prohibits dirty crew members from accessing a number of consoles. While dirty, you will not be able to perform the following actions:

  • Working on Research.
  • Working on NERON Projects.
  • Analyzing planets. (You can scan for planets, just not analyze them.)
  • Working on the Communications Console.
  • Grafting plants. (When trying to graft a fruit onto a plant, the plant must not be thirsty, dried out or sick, and the person doing it must not be dirty. If any of these things is the case, the plant will die and you will lose the fruit.)

Causes of Dirtiness

Avoidable

These actions can make you dirty, but will be avoided if you're carrying the Stainproof Apron.

Guaranteed

The following actions/diseases will make you dirty no matter what.
