Bread Sickness

Bread Sickness is a harmful status effect inflicted on Ducks when they are fed bread. Unlike the Poison effect, Bread Sickness can kill the affected entity.

Effect

Bread Sickness is a lethal poison effect. After an initial 4-second delay, it deals 1 damage (half a heart) at regular intervals until the effect expires or the Duck dies.

Visual Effects

  • Particles: Sneeze particles appear randomly around the affected entity (30% chance per tick)
  • Color: The effect uses a sickly green/brown color (representing moldy bread)

Causes

Cause Potency Duration
Feeding bread to a Duck I 20 seconds

Immunity

Ducks are fire-immune, but this does not protect them from Bread Sickness damage.

Trivia

  • This effect references the real-world advice that bread is unhealthy for Ducks, as it provides little nutritional value and can cause health problems.
  • Ducks are still attracted to bread and will follow you around if you’re holding it.
