Disturbed sleep issue

[exotrax]

Have an house with separated rooms and doors but when people weak up in the morning they move for a short time to other rooms, why ? Is there a manners lvl to skill up ? :P
What you do to avoid this behavior ?

It is just an AI that hasn't learned better yet.

In my experience, they usually only do this when the schedule is set to "sleep" or "relax" and they've already fulfilled this need. In that case, they wander a bit with the "?" displayed on their picture.

Try adjusting the schedule to fewer hours of "sleep" and/or "relax" and see if that fixes the problem.

(The only other time my survivors go into another bedroom, that I've seen, is when they want to "relax" in a chair in that room or access a wardrobe/chest in that room - but those are obvious reasons and probably not what you're referring to, in this case.)

I've never experienced this issue in about 250 hours of playing the game. Perhaps I don't have the issue because I have all my settlers on "Do Anything" 100% of the time -- much less complicated that way, and the work still gets done.

I assume your rooms all have only one entry/exit door, yes? In this case, I have seen survivors wander into other rooms that aren't theirs.

Let me interrupt myself briefly -- everyone needs their own private 4x5 room to get the +18 perk. And it's obviously best if they only have one entrance

If the sleeping schedule is set for them all to wake up at a certain time, but they are already well-rested, I've seen my folks get up and just stand in their bedrooms until sleep period expires.

Anyway if you look back a few days I posted a little screenshot called Example House. I don't run into any issues with disturbed sleep with that layout. Hope it helps, and if I only repeated stuff you already knew, my apologies.

be careful, i was in mod "with a own house, more happy" so i put table, chair, armchair, leisure ect ect and as you cant define a "house user" as for bed, toons use everything in range.... it can make a disturbing active

It's because you have relax after sleep. You can set them to work for 1 hour, then relax for 2, then work for 10 for example.

That's was the problem, thanks Martin

Just want to point out that Legadian said the same in the 2nd post

mmrh.. kinda.. the issue is that relax follows sleep, they tend to wander.. reducing relax time doesn't stop it, you need to block them completely, for example, if you use anything, they can still wander into peoples rooms as anything has a relax component. The only recourse if this is bothering you and it does on higher difficulties, is stop using relax after sleep.

I've been using 8 sleep, 6 work, 4 relax, 6 work for example.. and it seems to work ok, so long as they aren't working long distances from the base. Also 8 sleep 6 work 2 relax, 6 work, 2 relax then sleep.. also does ok.

I hope they fix this. I don't want to break up the work day, they need solid time to go farther distances.
