It seems, that Diona get referred to as overweight while in the light, and walk like fat people.
Diona are not fat people.

Nikky, they're slow. They're not fat. The hunger indicator signifies that they're full of light, meaning they don't need to get anymore. They don't get faster, the hungrier they are.
More-so, they're plants, which biologically means they have a slow metabolism. Meaning they don't process energy as quickly as others, so they walk slower, to conserve what energy they are able to attain.

Well, I get faster in the dark, and slower in the light. I know this. That, and I spawn with the 'overweight' hunger icon, which debuffs you with slowness, last time I went on a binder as a human.

This is due to Diona 'eating' light and getting fat because they're always exposed. IC, put it down to being a walking greenish that doesn't need to get anywhere fast.

Chaz is right, if you're playing a sentient shrubbery, what's the hurry?

Random idiocy aside, yeah it makes sense to me that Dionae do not go anywhere fast. They live like, indefinitely, I think? Unless some dickhead kills them. So they're probably very mellow and all that. Like being a zen master.
I always pictured them moving slowly, gracefully and with a slight creaking like tree limbs - the latter of the two SS13 can't really be coded for I don't think. |

Yeah, your rights. It's stupid, but it makes more sense, I suppose.

Mikal I see them like the Ents in Middle earth, they do EVERYTHING slow, and I love it.

I always imagined the Dionea as basically being Groot.
