Command : STARVATION

Basic

[##:##] starvation [<SECTS>|l <UNITS>|s <SHIPS>]

The starvation command warns you of possible starvation in your sectors, land units, and ships. [##:##] starv

With no arguments, the starvation command will list all of your sectors, land units, and ships that will starve at the update. [##:##] starv <SECTS>

With this syntax, the starvation command displays all sectors in <SECTS> that currently do not have enough food. It does not take into account emergency food growing & supplying (see info supply) It also does not worry about feeding babies... it merely check for starvation. If you want population increase, you'll need to chuck in some extra food...

For example:
[##:##] starv #0
