People keep going berserk and getting killed.

My people have the horse shoe game and chess, own rooms and everything and they keep going nuts, its dirty with blood etc but when i tell them to clean it they do one spot then stop. Idk what to do because i just lost my only doctor.

Put the priority of one person for cleaning on the highest so they clean it all =3, Also when some one breaks down it says why they break down.

some of them might be night owls also, you need to change the times that they work and sleep.You need to look at each ones needs and see whats giving them the minuses to morale.

Ofcourse it is =) your the lord and commander, And having people do more specific tasks when you ahve a low ammount of hands is a good idea imo, Better split the tasks at start. Till more come along and you can generalise more.

Also do not be scared to try things, This game is very much trIal and error(Aka you gonna fail start over become better everytime you fail) based. Its better to try stuff and learn from them :)
Have fun buddy =), also we are here if you got more questions

you definitely can get into a viscous cycle of people going berserk - damaging themselves and others - which is bad for their mood - which makes them go berserk again ....

sometimes it is best to just cut ur losses and start fresh ... or savescum one of the 5 autosaves ;D

Oh and for sure switch to Manual priorities on the Work tab. So much easier to be able to use numbering vs just off/on.

If people go berserk, it means they are very very unhappy. Chack colonist mood meter and it will say what exactly they are unhappy about.

And yes, at least one colonist should have cleaning as top or joint top priority.
