Vacuoles are organelles used to store compounds more densely than [[Cytoplasm]]. By default they store 8 of each type of compound.
Eukaryotic organelle which stores compounds much more densely than '''[[Cytoplasm]]'''. Can be specialised to increase storage even further.

Eukaryotic organelle which stores compounds much more densely than Cytoplasm. Can be specialised to increase storage even further.

Requirements

A cell must have a Nucleus to evolve Vacuoles.

Processes

No processes

Modifications

Optionally modify the Vacuole to set a specialization for one specific compound (except OxyToxy NT oxytoxy).

By default, the Vacuole stores 8 units of all compounds. With a specialization, a Vacuole instead stores 16 units of one compound and 0 units of all others.

Effects

No effects.

Upgrades

No upgrades.

Strategy

While extra storage is useful in any situation, a Vacuole is especially helpful for organisms which use Photosynthesis (cells with Thylakoids or Chloroplasts). If the day/night cycle is enabled in game settings, photosynthetic cells must have enough space to store the Glucose glucose they need to survive the night.
