Use

There are two ways to use the Ecology skills:

  • Single point sample tests
  • Ecology Survey Kits.

Ecology factors can be adjusted by hand-planting vegetables: https://atitd.wiki/tale10/Vegetable

Single Point Tests

Degree Test for Using Baseline Notes
First Heavy metal pollution 1+ Tadpoles 0% The more tadpoles die, the more heavy metals there are in the soil.
If more tadpoles are used, the reading becomes more precise.
Second Soil acidity 1 Cabbage Juice 7.0000 Standard pH scale. (Below 7 is acidic. Above 7 is alkaline.)
Third Ground water level 1 Dried Flax 50%
Fourth Phosphorus level 1 Buttermilk , 1 Dirt 25%
Fifth Soot level 1 Papyrus Paper , 1 Cactus Sap 0%
Sixth - A Nitrogen Level 1 Horned Hookworm , 2 Charcoal 25%
Sixth - B Potassium Level 1 Sulphurous Water , 2 Charcoal 25%
Seventh Salinity 1 Salt Water , 1 Copper Wire 0%

Ecology Survey Kits

Ecology Survey Kits are made on a chemistry lab, requiring Ecology 6 (Skill). Five kits are made at a time.

  • Select the Ecology type you want and see a colored grid for 2 minutes.
  • Colors on 500' x 500' grid represent levels.

Affecting Ecology

Ecology effects cover a radius of roughly 60 co-ords from the point where the player is standing when the action is complete.

Material Increases Decreases Required Action
Sulphurous Water Ground Water pH Empty Jugs
Salt Water pH ? Empty Jugs
Jugs of Water ? ? Empty Jugs
