# status.ron > The status icons: levels, labels and tips. **The status icons: levels, labels and tips.** Read by the game's rules: a change here changes how the game plays, and a world remembers the content it was made with. File: `assets/data/status.ron` ## About this file The status icons (Linear DCM-57): the small column of icons beside the weapon panel. There are no stat bars in normal play; an icon appears when its value passes a level here, changes as it passes the next, and goes when it drops back under the first. One entry per icon, drawn in this order. `levels`: one to four, each `at` higher than the last; the icon shows the highest level whose `at` the value has reached. `severity` (1 to 4: the icon's colour and border) is the level's place in the list unless given. `label` and `tip` are what hovering shows, in one line ("Very thirsty: ..."). `good` (optional) is a dimmer icon shown while the value is below `below`. What each kind's value is: ```text Health the share of full HP lost, 0 to 1 Hunger, Thirst, Tiredness the need, 0 (fine) to 1 (worst) Endurance the share of endurance spent, 0 to 1; plus 1 while winded Load the weight carried over the carry limit (1 = at the limit; a level is passed when over it) Pain pain, 0 to about 1 (wounds, treatments' stings, a night on the floor, less painkillers) Bleeding HP lost to bleeding per game hour Sick 1 a wound is festering, 2 feverish, 3 turning Queasy 1 with food poisoning Asleep 1 while asleep ``` These are what the icons say, not what the game does: the effects themselves start where the world's settings put them (the needs' 0.35 / 0.6 / 0.85, pain's 0.2 / 0.45 / 0.75, the load's 100% / 130% / 160%), which the levels here are set to match. ## Fields The file is one `StatusData`. `status.ron`: the icons, in the order they are shown. | Field | Type | What it is | |---|---|---| | `icons` | `Vec` | | ### `IconDef` One icon in `status.ron`. | Field | Type | What it is | |---|---|---| | `kind` | `TagKind` | | | `good` | `Option` | | | `levels` | `Vec` | | #### `TagKind` What kind of status an icon is about. | Value | What it means | |---|---| | `Health` | | | `Hunger` | | | `Thirst` | | | `Tiredness` | | | `Endurance` | | | `Load` | | | `Pain` | | | `Bleeding` | | | `Sick` | | | `Queasy` | | | `Asleep` | | #### `GoodDef` An icon's good state: shown dimmer while the value is below `below`. | Field | Type | What it is | |---|---|---| | `below` | `f32` | | | `label` | `String` | | | `tip` | `String` | | #### `LevelDef` One level of an icon in `status.ron`. | Field | Type | What it is | |---|---|---| | `at` | `f32` | The value at which this level starts. | | `label` | `String` | | | `tip` | `String` | | | `severity` | `u8` | 1 to 4; 0 (left out): its place in the list. | ## The file
