Staminometer with stamina

The Staminometer that is used to feature the stamina.

Stamina is a meter HUD in the Baldi's Basics series. It allows the player to run anywhere so they can get away from Baldi or other characters and collect notebooks faster and more efficiently.

Mechanics

Baldi's Basics Plus

Stamina

The Staminometer's needle moving.

The Staminometer is a display to show how much stamina is left. It has a red to green gradient background and there is a blue needle that shows the amount of stamina left. It is located at the bottom left of the screen as a heads-up display.

When the player runs by holding the "Run" key (Left Shift by default), the Staminometer's needle will move to the left. However, if the Principal of the Thing sees the player run for more than a half second (except in the playground and Principal's office), he will scold them for breaking one of the school rules, so caution should be taken while running.

There are five ways to recharge stamina:

  • Stopping and waiting for several seconds.
  • Eating an Energy Flavored Zesty Bar. This will refill stamina to 200%.
  • Collecting a notebook.
  • Walking around or standing still in the playground. (Running here does not recharge nor drop the stamina.)
  • Drinking from the water fountain.

Overcharged stamina

The Staminometer without the needle.

If the Staminometer's needle is located at the left and covering half of the needle, the player will not be able to run, making them vulnerable to Baldi. Also, when the player eats an Energy Flavored Zesty Bar, the needle cannot be seen. It will slowly move to the left while they are using stamina until it returns to the normal full position, then the drain speed returns to normal.

Out-of-Stamina

The meter when stamina has completely run out.

The stamina meter is located on the top center of the screen. It is a green bar with a red background, and when it runs out, a warning (YOU NEED REST!) will display at the bottom of the meter.

Authentic

Staminometer in Authentic Mode.

It uses the same design as Baldi's Basics Plus. However, in Authentic Mode, there is a lever on top of the Staminometer to start or stop running.

The player has infinite stamina while in Baldi's Office, glitched school and Baldi's Basement, so even if they run around for a long time, the needle will never move to the left.

Trivia

General

  • The player recharges stamina while they are playing Playtime's minigame, if they are standing still*, which would seemingly and logically consume energy. This might be due to the fact that the player is standing still when they play jump rope, and mystman12 did not program the jumping to decrease stamina.
    • It might also be due to the fact that because the player is standing still* and is vulnerable to Baldi, the stamina recharges to allow the player to run away from Baldi if he is close by once the player had finished Playtime's jump rope minigame. This keeps the game fair.

Baldi's Basics Plus

  • mystman12 tried to fix the glitch that the stamina did not recharge in the blue locker in V0.1.4, but since another glitch occurred, the blue locker issue was left unfixed after fixing the new glitch.[1] It was later fixed in V0.1.5 along with a similar glitch while teleporting or getting sucked in the whirlpool.
  • Staminometer with stamina Plus V0.3

    The old Staminometer from V0.2 to V0.3.4.

    Prior to V0.2, the stamina did not have the "STAMINOMETER" texture and it was only a plain bar, similiar to Classic/Birthday Bash.
  • Prior to V0.3, it allowed the player to collect logs quickly and bring them to the campfire before it dies out in the camping field trip.
  • Prior to V0.3.5, the stamina was featured as green or red bar. The red part of the bar meant depleted stamina.

Baldi's Basics Classic

  • Classic HUD outside

    The stamina meter seen outside when using hacks.

    The stamina GUI moves outside the hallway where the player sees the splash screen, along with the inventory and the notebook counter. This can only be seen when using noclip hacks.
  • The stamina was changed three times via update patches:
    • Prior to V1.1, if the player was out of stamina, it would recharge after standing still for 3 seconds. Also, notebooks did not refill the stamina.
    • Out of stamina Classic V1.3
      The "YOU NEED REST!" warning was a bit different from V1.2 to V1.3.2: The font was bold, non-pixelated, colored in black instead of red, and would flash rapidly. In other words, the text would look like "YOU NEED REST!".
    • Prior to V1.3, the player would slow down when they ran out of stamina. Since this version, the player will move at walking speed in that case.
    • Prior to V1.4, the stamina meter was located at the bottom left corner of the screen. Since this version, the meter is located at the top middle.

Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash

  • While the player is on the elevator-like platform, the stamina will not be refilled until they blow out the fire on the cake's candle. Pressing the "Run" key will reduce the stamina in that case.
