105 -* **Description: **Tricky and Kyte are intended to need Blue Mushrooms/Blue Grubs to perform their sidekick actions, and should be unable to help you if they're too hungry. The mechanic is introduced in the SnowHorn Wastes' tutorial area (with the SnowHorn, alpine roots, geyser, and digging spots) and it does function correctly in this area: Tricky needs to build his digging experience before he can dig certain spots, and he needs to be fed mushrooms before he has enough energy to continue digging. This mechanic isn't used for the rest of the game however, in some cases because the buddy interaction points have their energy and experience requirements set to 0. The sidekicks will simply perform the actions without any cost! It's likely that Rare simply had yet to add the energy costs to these object, or disabled them to facilitate debugging and testing the game. Additionally, Tricky and Kyte's blue/red UI mushroom gauges don't update at any stage.
