Sight

Sight is a pawn capacity: How well a character can see. Sight affects most colonist stats, with varying impact, though its importance will depend on the pawn's role in the colony. Sight is capped at 100% for many stats, but some combat and medical skills are uncapped.

At the time of writing, the maximum possible Sight capacity in the core game is 250% with a healthy pawn high on go-juice and luciferium with two archotech eyes installed, while also being infected with sensory mechanites. With the Royalty DLC installed, it is possible to reach a Sight capacity of up to a maximum of 325% with the addition of the Focus psycast.

Effects

Sight has a number of unique interactions with other mechanics beyond the tradition effects on stats. Pawns with 0% Sight:

• are not subject to the factor from low light levels on move speed or on global work speed.
• will not receive the "Observed corpse" or "Witnessed ally's death" moodlets.^{[Other similar moodlets?]}
• do not do not gain nor lose any opinion for any other pawn based on their beauty stat.
• cannot recreate at a telescope, poker table, billiards table, hoopstone ring, or any type of television. They also cannot skygaze or view art for recreational purposes.

Factors

The following factors affect Sight.

Base factors

• Eye efficiency. 100% importance, no allowed defect, no max.
  • The game assigns 75% weight to the stronger eye and 25% weight to the weaker, so entirely losing a single eye reduces sight by 25% rather than 50%.
  • Blindness: 0% part efficiency
  • Cataract: 50% part efficiency. Results in -12.5% sight for the first eye affected, -37.5% for the second eye.
  • Bionic eye: 125% part efficiency. Results in +18.75% sight for the first one installed, +6.25% for the second one.
  • Archotech eye: 150% part efficiency. Results in +37.5% sight for the first one installed, +12.5% for the second one.

Sight	Right eye
Blindness	Cataract	Organic eye	Bionic eye	Archotech eye
Left eye	Blindness	000%	037.5%	075%	093.75%	112.5%
Cataract	037.5%	050%	087.5%	106.25%	125%
Organic eye	075%	087.5%	100%	118.75%	138%
Bionic eye	093.75%	106.25%	118.75%	125%	144.25%
Archotech eye	112.5%	125%	138%	144.25%	150%

Offsets

The following offsets affect Sight.

• Sensory mechanites: +50%
• Go-juice: +35%
• Luciferium: +15%
• Tox gas:
  • Mild: −10%
  • Moderate: −25%
  • Severe: −40%

Post factors

• Blindfold: Sets maximum to 20%
• Focus psycast : x130%

Example

(100% Base Sight + 37.5% 1st archotech eye + 12.5% 2nd archotech eye + 15% luciferium + 35% go-juice + 50% sensory mechanites) * 1.3 psycast Focus effect = 325%
