Does food stack in post cu? Like can you take 2 brandy? Or at least do bonuses stack? Say I have a pikkata pie and an air cake, will they stack or will the highest take effect.
Are any of the non-stackings bugs?

The last time I checked (which granted was last weekend, things might've changed):
1) You cannot stack the same food/drink. You get a message saying "you are already under the effect of that enhancement". This is true for skill buff foods (which is the same as pre-CU) and HAM buff foods (which is new in the CU).
2) You cannot stack separate foods that grant bonuses to the same skill/effect. So you can't take an Exo Protein and a Synthsteak (both give damage mitigation bonus). This is identical to the current situation on Live.
3) You cannot stack separate foods that grant bonuses to the same HAM stat. So if you drink Cafand get +100 health / +100 Mind regen (stats without tissue) you cannot eat a Teltier Noodle (+100 Health / +100 Action regen) because of the overlapping Health buff.
#2 is a moot point, since we currently deal with the same thing on Live. #1 might be acceptible if #3 was not in effect. Customers would require using multiple foods to buff stats, which could act as a boost to the variety of items we sell.

To my knowledge unless its in the Corr Forums ( which are invisible to us normal folks ) they have not confirmed nor denied this is a bug or that it is working as intended. If it is as intended with the little chart Sciguy made we will see a big hit in sales. I mean a really big hit.

Thank you ^_^
I sure hope this is resolved and stated for sure if any of those are a bug are not.
