I can't say that I agree with this move as I don't personally think 10W and a bit of heat is too great an asking price for room bonuses, but I'm sure some will love this change.

Indeed, I do not agree with this change either.

I approve of removing light requirements from rooms and replacing it with a bonus - carrots are always better than sticks.

The carrot was the +3/+6 Morale Bonus from eating in a Mess Hall/Great Hall, +1/+2 from sleeping in a Barracks/Bed Room, etc.

I was supposed to play DST tonight to loot some sick skins, but you made it more difficult than it should Ipsquiggle :cower:

I greatly enjoy this update :victorious: There would be too much to quote if I had to detail :friendly_wink:

Is tuning'up a generator a "work" on a "machine" ?

Nice update by the way. So much enjoyable to be listened as a commu when unbalance mechanisms are highlighted.

EDIT : wooops. Sorry but I'll join some of us. I really love the +15% bonus, but I disagree with the light requirements withdrawal.

Has Sushi been removed as a food item?  I don't see the recipe to make it anymore on any of the food prep stations.

Sushi has been removed but Pacu Fillet has been added. Pacu fillet is just raw fish meat (1000kcal, quality +2)

Does this mean lettuce is only eaten raw and used to cook mushroom wraps now?

It's not really the cost I had a problem with it was the requirement. I didn't like that you MUST have the light source for the room. Changing the bonus for working in light from 5% to 15% and getting rid of the requirement makes me want it instead of needing it. Also, people were just adding lights to the room then disabling the lights so there was no reason to have it.

It's on burgers too, but that's it.  Side note, burgers apparently need to be cooked in the oven, even though they're a mix of already cooked food.  Same with the Surf'n'turf.

These rooms already didn't require lights in the previous build.

Yep, 10W aren't much already and with the most simple automation - a motion sensor hooked up to the light - the requirement could be brought down even further, while staying true to the design intent. I didn't really mind the light requirement. On a positive note, this means less messy wiring in the core base.

Anyways long list of very good changes - both in terms of bugfixes and balancing <3

While I agree for the power plant, what about the others ? Massage clinic, hospital, great hall, recreation room, washroom, and so on... I'm not sure 15% benefit are working on them. Will the dup use toilet, sink, massage table, sick bay, arcade, etc... faster ?

The current food system feels very much broken:

  • Barbeque is still the only food providing a "buff". Why should I use it as an ingredients?
  • Pacu were already the best source of "meat" (pre beta branch) and now they got even better as an early food source. (You can refine them now without pincha pepper).
  • Nosh beans feel like a useless addition. Hard to farm, but still no real benefit.

Not sure if that´s just a beneficial change. (I would prefer the old state where the gas/liquid will just stop moving.)

In the last version adding a light requirement to really every room seemed a bit pointless.

But I would prefer if lights would still be a requirement for the higher tier rooms like great hall or washroom.
