−	There are 5 fishing window user input options that allow the player to manipulate certain aspects of the fishing process. To use them, the player selects an option, and then clicks the OK button. After this is done, the window updates and lists the queued action in the Next Action listing of the window. This action will be executed at the start of the new event cycle (an event cycle occurs every 7 seconds during the fishing process). When one of these options are used, the player initiates a unique animation at the next window refresh cycle. It is believed that when some of these options are used (tug inputs in particular) they will affect the chance for a new event (nibble, bite, caught something) to occur. It is believed that the server selects some button or a combination of buttons to be used for each 7 second interval that the windows refresh. If the player hits the right button or sequence of buttons in a row, their chances to initiate the next higher event will dramatically improve the next time the update comes around. No known formula or values for how this process works exist so we will need to make something up.	+	There are 5 fishing window user input options that allow the player to manipulate certain aspects of the fishing process.

 Each species is found on every planet however each planet has its own unique color variations for each species. When collected, fish are essentially containers that have two items inside them: chum bait and fish meat resource. To obtain the fish meat and chum bait, a player must use the Fillet Fish radial menu option on a fish after it has been caught. Fish can only be filleted once. After being filleted, the fish container is emptied (no items can be put inside it) and can be used as a decorative piece. Fish meat and chum bait stack sizes vary. Fish meat is observed (precu) to range between 1-17 units and chum bait is acquired in sizes between 2-5 (probably 1-5). Fishmeat ranges observed in the nge are between 3-22 units.
