Recreation buildings can be used during Downtime and award a Morale buff. Each recreation building provides a buff for a certain duration. Usage Time is reduced by Lit Workspace for all buildings except Beach Chair.
The game code indicates the Party Line Phone isn't meant to benefit from Lit Workspace, but it seems actually to (possibly a bug). Morale×Duration is the "morale⋅cycles. If you can supply the morale requirements for your duplicants by means that don't take up extra time (room bonus, decor, food), then none of the recreation buildings is worth using (showers included).
most efficient recreation building Morale per duplicant time (→ buff duration, usage time, morale amount) or morale per resource cost? I'm having trouble making recreation rooms. I know how to build an Arcade and Dancing area but they take so much power that my powering room is struggling.
When my dupes learn new things they take 18 morale for building, digging, athletics and having an extra morale room makes me take the suit. my dupes have 2 slots of rec time but they hardly ever seem to use the rec buildings. my sauna is burning ceramic because no one uses it, they're too busy with the showers right next to it and don't go to the sauna.
same with the jukebot, but at least it's not burning my ceramic >.> what gives? do I need to have like 60000 downtime slots for my dupes to use the rec buildings? they aren't even. In this episode we wrap up on some Germ cleaning, Create a Recreation building, re-orient some of the base, and plan out some more farming. Lots to do and mo.
Build the Water Cooler, it's the easiest to build and maintain recreational building. From the Gamepedia page: The Water Cooler serves as a "Recreational" object needed to create the Recreation Room as well as a gathering spot for Duplicants during break time. One of the things I've not really figured out properly yet is how to get the dupes to use the recreation room and the facilities there-in.
Some of the dupes enter, some just run off to sleep, some don't use the morale booster building. What do i have to do to ensure my Dupes get the Morale boost. Can you offer the most effective recreational room (s) (preferably with a screenshot), with the maximum decor and providing the most effective amount of morale, taking into account the fact that duplicants sleep 3 blocks and rest 4 blocks.
I think it is possible to create 2 recreation rooms of the maximum size so that duplicants can choose where to go. At the same time, it is desirable to. We're back to Oxygen Not Included, and my colony has started to get a bit bored without anything fun to do! Today I think I'll create the perfect RECREATION.
Rooms offer a variety of bonuses, but most rooms will provide a buff to Duplicant morale. A room can only be one type, if a room meets the requirements of multiple types of room simultaneously then it will be treated as a "miscellaneous room" with no bonus until it is specialized as a single type. The room size requirements are measured in two-dimensional area, so a rectangular room 10 tiles.
