Lights and bathroom while sleeping??

[Dalorath]

Hello all :-D

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is better for my people to sleep in the dark or whether it makes any sort of difference?

Also, I was wondering if having a bathroom amongst the sleeping crew effects the sleep or not? Does it effect their quality of sleep?

Here is an example of a setup i made to test this maybe??

Lights add comfort, bathrooms remove comfort. You will want your bed rooms comfortable. Use the comfort overlay to see if nearby discomforting items are impacting the over all comfort of your bedrooms.

Just my own observations, the bathroom are too close and should be flipped. The pod hangers will probably also be a problem. You also have way to many thermal regulators.

Does this look better to you? I added a bunch of lights and removed a few thermal regulators...

1) Personal rooms have no effect
2) Single beds have no effect
3) Putting double beds next to each other have no negative effect (but watch for co2)
4) Putting beds in same room as kitchen and tables have POSITIVE effect

5) Doors and vents have no effect

6) Permanently opened doors provide same "noise" protection as walls, but do not limit movement, they cost more but this is not issue 10 minutes after start.


7) Kitchen can light fire and cause temperature jump and kill plants


Concluding everything you should switch hydroponics with crew beds for optimal results and place toilets as close as possible to "dinning" table but behind walls or doors, gas scrubber should be placed close to beds but again behind wall or doors as it cause mood penalty.

Single beds are alot more comfortable then double beds. Id prefer to sleep on a single if I was stuck in space :-D Other then that, I will consider and look into what you have said further...

AI does not prefer single beds inside separate room to double beds stacked behind kitchen

much better, but i'd still add more lights around the dining table, between the bedroom doors on bottom and on top walls. or you may add a lamp or two around the yellow thingy (dunno what machine that is now) and the scrubber next to the power plugs.

something like this actually "best" method to provide "comfort"

place these gaming automats and jukebox too

Regarding beds and comfort, just pointing out, that in the description for the Double Bunk Bed it actually says "[...] but is not as comfortable as a single bed".

So "2) Single beds have no effect" is not quite right - you won't see a difference in the comfort overlay but the crew member will gain more comfort while sleeping

I haven't seen much benefit between having a small comfort area vs. a huge luxury comfort area. As long as the area is green, your guys will be happy.

Beds default to first come, first serve. Crew can also be explicitly assigned a bed, which sounds like what you want.

Bathrooms generate discomfort, just like most other industrial hardware. Any level of discomfort will render a place unfomfortable, it completely negates all positive bonuses. Comfort zones don't have to be air tight! The back of the toilet itself will block discomfort and can be used as a wall. Just make sure the only walking path to the toilet seat goes through a door.
