Chilli: Difference between revisions

A '''chilli''' is a type of pepper as well as a renewable resource food item that can be planted or consumed. When consumed, it restores [[Health Bar|health]] and [[Hunger Bar|hunger]] to a [[blockhead]], also increasing its body temperature by 10 °C, allowing a blockhead to stay warm in cold places. However, when a blockhead eats too many chillies, its health will decrease.

A chilli appear in game resembling their real life counterpart. The chilli pepper is long and tapered with a red waxy skin. A green stem and calyx are attached at the pepper's shoulder. It also seems to glow when planted.

If harvested just before maturing, it can still produce a full crop, but a young plant will produce only one pepper. A chilli plant will reach maturity in about two days. Once mature, the average life cycle is about 1 day before dropping a single pepper and reverting to its young stage. It will go through this cycle several times before completely de-spawning, producing a total of up to half a dozen peppers. Agriculturally, the pepper can be placed in a block of [[dirt]] or [[compost]] to grow a [[Chilli Plant|chilli plant]] for farming additional chillies.

"Chilli" is the spelling used in the United Kingdom and other areas of the former British Commonwealth, with "chile" used in the southwest U.S. and "chili" in most other places.
