Let WX-78 STARVES faster ---- with too many slots taken up

[Mgtamin]

In current version Alpha circuits, Hardy Circuit and Super-Processing Circuit (with its highest form Beanbooster circuit) is much stronger than Gastrogain Circuit. Moreover, 14 slots WX-78 in this version is strong enough. 21 slots WX-78 will be much stronger. 

To limit his strength and let WX-78's strength link to game process, WX-78 can starve faster with more circuits. So that WX-78 can only support 6-7 slots in the early game, and with the game in progress, WX-78 can afford more slots even all 21 slots. The formula I thought for WX-78's daily hunger drain speed is: (without Gastrogain Circuit)  

75(base) + 5 * (max(used_slots - 6, 0)) ^ 2

It means that no more than 6 slots used doesn't boost hunger drain speed (75 per day). With more slot used, WX-78 has to Increase the power of bioenergy generator.

WX-78 with 7 used slots needs 75+5 food per day.

WX-78 with 12 used slots needs 75+180 food per day.

WX-78 with 21 used slots needs 75+1125 food per day, meaning that WX-78's hunger is exhausting at 2.5/s extremely high speed. He needs to eat a dragon pie or a gear every half a minute to keep his body and circuits working. DON'T STARVE!

The formula could be further improved. Gastrogain Circuit and Super Gastrogain Circuit can be used to decrease extra food consumption. For example, every Gastrogain Circuit counts -1 slots and super Super Gastrogain Circuit counts -3 slots in hunger consumption speed. Super Gastrogain Circuit's hunger drain decrease is also valid to extra hunger drain of circuits.

that sounds annoying then actually balance the character

Another buff for Gastrogain Circuit is that with Alpha Circuits Tinkering is that the circuit can increase sanity and health gain from food. So that WX-78 can recover himself to full health and sanity easier when his max health and sanity is high.

For example, WX-78 can recover 25HP&10Sanity from Butter Muffin instead of 20HP&5Sanity with Alpha Circuits Tinkering and Gastrogain Circuits.

The idea is good, but the numbers seem to be written with one's feet.
You must grant other players the freedom to not use Gastrogain, even if they utilize all the circuits. Just like they have the freedom to play the game normally without using any circuit
A daily range of 150 to 225 is acceptable, and there are precedents for this in DST. 1200？ I choose to use a mod.
