Vine Genome Theory
Vine Gene Sets
The following gene sets became known through extensive mutagen use to build single gene sets within a genome. ~Pascalito and Ariella
Acid = OYYG
Color = RROOYY
Grapes = OOOR
sKin = YRO
Quality = RYYR
Sugar = YYY
Vigor = GGGRO T9 mutagen testing suggests that vigor is GGRO
Hue = GYR
Quantity = OOOR
Vine Gene Sets Knowledge
FACT 1:
Starting values for all stats for a vine when first planted are 0 except for Grapes and Vigor. Grapes starting value is between 8 and 12 (inclusive and regardless of how many Grapes gene sets a vine genome has) and is 'assigned' randomly for a unique vine genome. You might also think of it as each type of vine is 'assigned' an amount of starting Grapes and every cutting from that vine will ALWAYS have that amount of starting Grapes. Vigor begins with 100 health and will always decrease with each tend. See Vineyards and Wine Guide also. Starting Vine Stats of Zero
FACT 2:
When doing a tend, the default range amount for any attribute will give a range amount of -4 to +4 when there is zero gene sets for that attribute. Example: If a genome had no Quality gene sets of RYYR then the Quality amount after doing a tend would ALWAYS fall between -4 and +4 to whatever previous total was for Quality.
Exception to this rule above is the 'attribute' of Vigor. Vigor is the health of the vine and it always decreases with each tend. It's default with zero gene sets of Vigor in a genome is -1 to -14.
FACT 3:
For each gene set of an attribute that is in a genome, the default range amount is incremented by -4 and +4 on the default above. Example: If a genome has one Quality gene set RYYR then the Quality amount after doing a tend would fall between -8 and +8 to whatever previous total was for Quality.
For the attribute Vigor, for each gene set it decreases the negative range by 1. So for one gene set of Vigor, GGGRO in the genome, the range would now be -1 to -13. Kind of measly.
"Starter" Vines
There are seven varieties of vine. Their exact genomes are listed on the Genomes page
This is a visual representation of what each gene string does, and where it is located in the vines available in-game. If you would like to add your own vines to it, please contact Peacefulness in-game or on Discord. The spreadsheet below is also available at: https://tinyurl.com/y62r3xjf
