Environmental Factors:    Page 1 | Page 2 Temperature:   - Affects travel speed of the cells, making travel much slower and dangerous in low temperature areas   - Small cells attack significantly faster in high temperatures   - All cells generate a small amount of heat. Large colonies can generate noticeable amounts of heat especially if they are burning a lot of food (for combat/research/etc)   - Polluted areas constantly absorb heat, creating cold spots Humidity:   - Represents the amount of salt: high humidity means fresh water, while low humidity means salty water   - Fresh water allows cells to become larger, stronger and healthier   - Salt water increases power regeneration rate of the inhabitants   - Vacuoles in cells help regulate humidity by reducing the osmosis of humidity from nearby sectors Food Sources:   - Representing small algae and minerals, food is the most important quality in a sector   - Cells slowly consume food, eventually depleting the environment   - Without food, cells starve to death   - Food slowly grows back if the sector is left unoccupied   - Lysosomes allow cells to harvest food faster and more efficiently Pollution:   - Represents the amount of toxic waste in the environment   - Decreases health regeneration of cells, causing severe damage to unprepared colonies   - Lysosomes can help cells resist the effects of pollution
