Restoring AP

Each night (if you survive The Attack, of course), you will be restored to your maximum . There are also numerous methods to gain beyond this.

Food

You can eat a single piece of Food each day. Doing so will give you the Fed status.

• Eating basic food restores your to the maximum.
• Eating premium food restores your to the maximum, plus one. This is 7 for a healthy individual, or 6 if they are Wounded.

Water

Unless you are Dehydrated!, drinking from a water source restores your to the maximum and gives you the Refreshed status. Even when Refreshed, you can still drink again if you are Thirsty or Dehydrated!, which will improve your status ({MetaInline|Dehydrated}} to Thirsty or Thirsty to normal), but it will not yield any extra either.

Drugs

Some Drugs can restore . Using any drug will give you the Drugged status. This does not prevent you from using additional drugs, but doing so will give you the Hooked! status.

• Taking Anabolic Steroids restores your to the maximum.
• Taking Twinoid 500mg restores your to the maximum, plus 2. This is 8 for a healthy individual.
• Taking Unlabelled Drug or Betapropine 5mg (expired) has a chance of either restoring your maximum , or your maximum plus 1.

Alcohol

Drinking alcohol restores your to the maximum and gives you the Drunk status, preventing you from drinking any more alcohol that day. This will be replaced by the Hungover status the following day, preventing you from drinking that day, too.
