ATLAS improves its realism with new changes implemented in the recently released Patch 557.6.

Players should pay close attention to new tweaks introduced to vitamin management. While they no longer take damage over time from vitamin depletion, poisoning, deficiency, and surplus, they will get a debuff for each vitamin that is poorly maintained. For example, if players are completely deficient in vitamin A, they will take 20% increased damage.

In addition, players will have to be mindful of how much they eat because there are real consequences to overeating now. Besides having visibly large stomachs, players also run the risk of developing torpor, which could prevent them from doing any activities in ATLAS.
