Metabolic efficiency, denoted by the [[File:Metabolism.png|20px|Metabolism]] symbol, controls the rate at which pawns get [[Saturation|hungry]]. Harmful genes will increase their metabolic efficiency, getting hungry slower, and thus consuming less food overall. Meanwhile helpful genes reduce metabolic efficiency, getting hungry faster, and thus consuming more food. A baseline human has a metabolic efficiency of 0 (100% hunger rate), and genes can bring it as low as -5 (225% hunger rate) or up to 5 (50% hunger rate). The game prevents you from giving pawns less than -5 metabolic efficiency; it doesn't stop you from exceeding 5, but hunger rate will not go below 50%. | Metabolic efficiency, denoted by the [[File:Metabolism.png|20px|Metabolism]] symbol, controls the rate at which pawns get [[Saturation|hungry]].

Complexity, denoted by the [[File:Complexity.png|20px|Complexity]] symbol, affects how many [[gene processor]]s you need to create a [[xenogerm]] from a set of genes. A [[gene assembler]] can create xenogerms with a maximum complexity of 6, plus 2 for every attached gene processor. Complexity also determines the base time it takes to create the xenogerm, ranging from 4 hours at ≤3 complexity, to 23 hours at ≥20 complexity (which is then scaled by the [[research speed]] of whoever operates the gene assembler).{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Specific math}} | Complexity, denoted by the [[File:Complexity.png|20px|Complexity]] symbol, affects how many [[gene processor]]s you need to create a [[xenogerm]] from a set of genes.
