ToiDiaeRaRIsuOy Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hello, I have placed an espresso machine as my recreational building for the great hall requirement. However, I find that none of the dupes use it even though it has water and pincha peppernuts and is powered. Is this normal? I was expecting to see my dupes enjoy a good coffee after visually showing their disgust for the lice meal.

Saturnus Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I find they only use them in a recreational room. In there, plaster them wall to wall if you have the pincha pepper nut supply to sustain them. They use much less power than arcades and jukebots but have a long lasting +6 morale bonus compared to a measly +2 for arcades and jukebots. If you have 4 of them and 16 dupes, all your dupes will have a permanent +6 morale bonus from them.

I don't have concerns for my morale as I have that under control; it's more of an aesthetic thing for me: given that the great hall requires a recreational building, and given that the espresso machine is next to the water cooler a perfectly logical choice, you'd expect them to use it. It's quite the dissapointment as I really went out of my way to build a pincha peppernut greenhouse specifically to have the espresso machine used in the great hall.

Sasza22 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Are you sure they have enough time during the break to use the recreation stuff? Do they use jukebots and arcade? Often you need an extra aquare of downtime for them to use some of the stuff.

Steve Raptor Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Strange, I always put my espresso in my great hall and they always use it. Do you have enough downtime blocks? I run with 3.
