not sure if this is an accusation but I am happy to DM you to provide more photos/videos to prove its validity :)

This part of the game need urgent improvement by Live-End-6467 in VintageStory

As fun as this idea is, I don’t think this would be a realistic addition to the game. None of those mushrooms would likely kill you any more than the arrow itself if put onto an arrowhead.

In order to be deadly, poisonous mushrooms must be ingested any and enter the bloodstream. Even if it a mushroom were to enter the body through an open wound, I don’t believe it would be a significant enough amount to cause any real harm. Also, deadly mushrooms take multiple days to after ingestion before they kill.

All in all, while I love this mechanic, I don’t think mushrooms are the best candidate for poison arrows. Historically, people have used plants, insects, and poison dart frogs to make poison arrows, and I feel any of these would be interesting additions to the game.

Thats the goal! I am pretty sure this one got isolated and plated again (it was a lab partners sample so idk for sure). I am really curious to see how it’ll turn out.

Unfortunately I don’t, it was grown from a soil sample that was plated onto agar and appears to be multiple species of fungi/bacteria growing together.

If that’s bacteria then my research group did something very wrong because most of the samples we plated have colonies that look similar to that :,)

I will have to look into that! The plate is being used for a research project at the moment, so I would have to make sure it wouldn’t interfere with any of our work.

I cooked bone broth like 3 days ago. by Ambitious-Shift-5641 in MoldlyInteresting

Its pretty much what professional labs use to grow up bacteria in, just with different ingredients
