Statuses

There are different status effects that you can get in the game Under the Ocean. Most are bad and change the way you move or act.

Infected Wound[]

This happens when an open wound is ignored for a long time, and letting it get infected. This is really dangerous because the infection will get worse fast, making you pass-out

Planed Changes[]

Some changes to statuses are planned to be made, making the injuries easier to understand and visually representing what is wrong. As the creator, farmergnome, says in the UTO Roadmap document: "There is something to be said for simplicity, I think for the most part, the illness display works on a mechanical level, it is nice that it tracks multiple injuries and stuff, though, I think there is too much information and noise being leveled at a player on this screen for too long, and for a new player, or someone used to playing..... every other game on earth, multiple health bars all blinking at you isn’t the best way to get the point across, it just confuses people, not to mention having loads of text splattered across the base of the screen is really distracting from the gameplay experience. So while I am happy with the level of detail in the

illness display, I think it needs to be summarised in one bar, rather than 5 or so, with the option to see those 5 bars with the stats if the player wants to, introduce the player portrait bar a floating

UI like all the others mentioned earlier [...]"
