The Newbie's Guide to Getting Energy

This page hasn't been made despite being linked for some time, so here goes a rough draft:

Summary: Eat from Mikhail's. Take pep pills to consume Body. Expect 50-60 adventures a day.

It takes energy to do things in Metroplexity; if you want to do more in a day, you need to get more energy. You can get more energy by eating food, which uses up Hunger, or taking certain drugs, which use up Body.

Hunger:
Early in the game, the best things to eat are either the platters at Mikhails or the protein bars. Other decent sources are much less abundant and aren't much better. Try to get approximately 2 Energy for each Hunger consumed, but more likely you'll get less just because you can't always get what you need.

Once you make it to the University, more options become available. Caramel bars from the bookstore are good, if you can afford them. If you get a sushi kit, and learned to Fish at the Docks, you can cook a fish with sushi rice for better food. See Ocean Eyes for more details on how to get more energy out of your sushi.

Body:
Body is used for all drugs but only a few drugs give energy. Once you hit the Docks you can take Pep Pills for about 1 energy per body; much later on you can learn to make Caffeine Powder (requires Experimental Chemistry) from 2 Pep Pills, for about 2 energy per body.

Body is often better used on other drugs, especially Eclipse.
