Pimp my design : Dupliquants' living quarters

[Lifepath [CdE]]

Hello everyone, i'm proud and happy to show you this architecture i put a lot of work into : the dupes living quarters.

I would also like to require comments, opinions and ideas to expand and improve on this design. I would also be very happy to see other players living quarters screenshots !


DUPES LIVING QUARTERS:
I use these areas for the basic living needs of dupes : eat,poop, sleep and play video games in the most efficient and timely manner.

This is my latest version of the space lounge. Its purpose is to accomodate 8 dupes working at the top of the asteroid. The idea is to save them as much traveling time as possible. Nothing is worse than having a dupe move from bottom to top of your base to store a picogram of iron...

The idea is to have the smallest time spent moving around : dupes shed their suit, go to toilets, whash their hands pick some food, eat, go play a bit, sleep their share and start their next day with a shower, just before hopping back into their suit for their next working day !

The Scientist / Astronaut has her own bedroom next to her laboratory, she virtually has no running around to ever do. I plan to expand on that principle in future iterations for the cook, the farmer, the rancher and the engineers.

Very good job!

that looks great! Have you considered replacing the inner tiles between bedrooms and halls and such with diamond windows? could really max out your decor in there that way.

I haven't played with windows yet. Is glass needed ? Decor is already almost maxed out (120) everywhere. But this could be a little improvement still, i will do it asap !

You can use diamonds for window tiles. It will also increase window tile decor by 100%.

This is awesome. Really like the design. so in your testing does de-centralising your dupes into different living pods actually work? do you avoid dupes going across the map etc?

Thanks a lot !
Yes, decentralising works great. But it takes a lot of work in the organisation of stocks. You need a bit of everything in all your areas.

It also induces a very typical playstyle. I pause very often and have things beeing constructed at bottom, middle and top of my base.

But the living pods can also be used permanently for some specific workers like scientist, engineers, cook, farmer... and you can move your architects around depending on where you are building new stuff. You will then need spare accomodations in all your areas.
