Paxtonnnn Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 (Inspired by @Mezukie.) How hugging works: When a Dupe's stress is 20% or less, they will attempt to hug stressed Dupes. If a Dupe has a "Not a Hugger" negative trait, they won't hug others and when Dupes try to hug them they push them away, adding stress to both Dupes. That's my idea, but it's probably completely awful and if you have any questions ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleb Jander Greek Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Nice idea! Another one in the same line would be like this: when you have two dupes going for massage therapy in adjacent tables, they could chat and add a bonus of stress reduction. It can also be applied to adjacent mess tables, statues, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nightmare Tank Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Duplicants really do need more communication between each other. At the moment, they seldom acknowledge each other. Mostly because they're all busy doing their own jobs. Though duplicants for example eating next to each other could chat for a bit. Or in adjacent showers. Shower talk can be pretty common. And any duplicant who's just had an incident (i.e. recovered from entombment or being trapped in a non-oxygenated area, survived being attacked by a Hatch, etc.) should probably have a hug or some kind of considerate action from another duplicant.

tehMugwump Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Nice, but after a dozen+ cycles, I'm the one that needs a hug, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta agree with that, but if it means all my duplicates are still alive, it's worth it. I feel like these little guys would be more social than we are in the real world.
