Please make them use the leather chairs

[jojobe]

The NPC will not sit and drink in leather chairs but at the table with regular chairs. Please make them prefer the leather chairs. I want them to smoke and drink in the chairs.

This is a good suggestion! I tried putting using these chairs with a table, table won't allow it... "blocked access" something... :(

Comfy chairs are meant to be freestanding. Only the benches work at tables. I like to position mine in front of the fireplace w/a space between so they can be accessed.

that is where i put mine...BY ALL THAT IS HOLY THEY WONT USE THEM. They would rather sit on the hard stools. WORSE I have 4 of each musical instrument 2 punching bags, 4 dart boards, 2 target post and they choose to walk as relaxation... yep this is the dumbest AI i have ever seen. the game just looks good as far as AI is concerned. The AI will break each other task constantly. You have an AI harvesting half way through a job they will stop and do something else and a new person much later will walk their and complete the task even though it would have been faster if the other NPC stayed and completed the work.

Sorry, it sounded to me like you'd put the chairs at the table so they'd use them for eating or something. My mistake.

no i did not put the chairs at the table as i said i put mine in front of the fire place, because they do not belong at the table. It would be great if the NPC took care of some of their needs like relaxation you have to tell them to take a break.

READ my comment they prefer to drink and smoke and relax at the table instead of the Leather chairs. Its not that they do not use the leather chair on occasion its that they are prefer the table and chairs to sit and to sit and drink. We're playing the same game so do not know what you mean by game being bugged.

I have leather chairs & NPC's use them for relaxation.
- Maybe your game is bugged or change Work Schedule for more NPC me time.
This is my Work Schedule. The middle of day may cause issues with long travel time between NPC time off of work.

My leather armchairs are arranged around the musical instruments, inside the lounge room, together with the dartboard. My survivors make use of these quite often, as their schedule includes 3 hours of Anything around 3am, Work from 6am~12nn, another 1-hr Anything, then back to Work from 1pm~7pm. Then topped off with a 3-hr Anything then the rest is Sleep.

Of course, I have the Advanced Sleep research so they get rested faster.

Nah, you can construct metal chairs which will fit around the table. Real chairs, not benches.

what i meant was if for some reason they do not follow the schedule and their need for relaxation gets too low they will NOT stop and take a break as an emergency need (like rimworld)
