Afflictions



Afflictions are in-game status effects that you can contract through various means; the most common of which being ingesting flooding water while drowning in it. Every biome's water has different properties, and will affect which afflictions you can contract in each area. Each of them will affect the player differently and will alter their appearance, as well as release many particles that indicate to other crewmembers that the player is afflicted.

Doctors - You can cure your afflitctions by talking to Doctors found in Civilizations, as long as they weren't attacked or robbed.
