Internal Name chemoreceptor

Chemoreceptors are external organelles that represent the microbe's ability to detect compounds in the environment. They can be set to detect a specific type of compound or set to be able to detect cells of other species

Requirements

No Requirements

Processes

No processes.

Modifications

Modify the Chemoreceptor to select what type of compound to search for, or alternatively what species to detect. It is also possible to set a search radius, which is the distance it's going to search in; as well as the minimum amount to detect which is how small a patch of compounds can be for it to be detected.

Effects

The Chemoreceptor draws a line towards the nearest patch of a certain compound or cell of a certain species. The color of the line can be customized in the Modification Menu.

Upgrades

No upgrades.
