Recreation starved issue.

[Maltsi]

I have never before had issues with recreation, until now. 2 of my pawns won't get enough recreation (leader and priest). hovering over recreation meter tells me that 6 different recreation sources recommended. i have horseshoes pin, chess table, poker table and billiards table and there is no other recreation buildings available, am i missing something here? all of my pawns have access to everywhere, all of them haves 4 hours of recreation time each day.

Only using like 7 mods and none alters gameplay or add new things.

Leaders and priests both have increased expectations. Possibly a little too increased. I'd look for other types of entertainment you don't have, A telescope and TV, plus whatever mods may add for you. By the way, the horseshoes pin and billiards table both provide the same kind of recreation, so I'd probably ditch the former since the latter fills recreation faster. Same with the chess table and poker table.

Thank you, i completely forgot that TV exists, now i just need to research it. could not find telescope research thou, maybe that is only from traders? anyway, since horseshoe pin and chess table is the same as the billiard and poker. this means even with TV and Telescope there is only 4 types of recreation? those pawns of mine requires 6

Yeah, telescopes are trade only. There's also social and solitary. Social can be at any table or campfire, and solitary is something they can do almost anywhere, especially in their bedrooms. Meditation, prayer, going on a walk, all those.

If you have royalty, music is another, just build a harp.

Recreational drugs (smokeleaf , beer, and psychite tea) and exotic foods (chocolate and insect jelly) are also recreation types.

check the notification for recreation. some of the recreation you listed share the same type (dexterous)
recreation types i recall are:
dexterous (horseshoe, billiard)
intelligence (chessboard, poker)
ambient (cloudwatching, meditation, telescope)
drugs (alcohol and/or others)
passive (tv also being used for bedresting pawns)
music (royalty/ideology instruments)

not sure if recreational food is its own thing or part of drugs

The list of recreation types are:
Dexterous
Cerebral
Solitary relaxation
Social interaction
TV
Telescope
Food consumption (chocolate and insect jelly)
Chemical (drugs)
Music

That's 9 possible options, at max a colonist only needs 6 no matter their expectations. Usually I skip drugs and food and tend to forget to build a music one, and having just the other 6 is fine. If you haven't seen a telescope for sale though you have those as options.
