Weirdest part is listening to hundreds if not thousands of these people explaining video games mechanics and behaviour in a much more political and serious manner than world leaders talking about policy and humanity.

[@imrobertb]

Well, yeah. The rules of how Rimworld works are written down in computer code. You can run 100% perfectly controlled experiments on whatever you want in Rimworld, and know that the results you get have zero margin of error. This is not the case for the real world. Which is probably one of the reasons we prefer to play video games.

@@imrobertb original poster never replied, but my rebuttal would have been: "enrique" is talking about presentation, courtesy, building arguments up logically and credible. Good speechcraft vs bad speechcraft. While "real politicians" have a lot of forces working against them, like in your point about the real world and a experiment, compared to gamers talking about their game, its a bit hard to see how what those forces are and how they apply to having good communication, not being hateful and being "political" (diplomatic, remembering you have a audience, being prepared, commenting on a important issue) etc. I mean should not politicians be much better at this than many others? They are afterall in some regards the faces of our public, the clerks and leaders, diplomats, the ears and mouth of the state and our policy. They are supposed to give voice to all aspects of us, our grief and our pride. If our leaders cant be civil, what does that leave for the rest of us? What type of example is that? Parents have to try to be civil as a role, a world leader is in a way a extremely frameable as a parent. Parents who act horrible in public are berated for this, yet it is woefully apparent in modern day politicians.

a 33 minute video about making 1 type of room as optimised as possible is nice

[@anthonypelchat]

Great video. I really loved the info about autodoors. Never thought about them before. One thing that I wanted to point out though was were you spoke about comfort and how useless it is, which is mostly true. However, with beds you also have rest effectiveness. The better the rest effectiveness, the faster they sleep. A stone bed is 90% I believe, while a wood bed is 110%. Someone in a stone bed may need 9 hrs of rest while someone in a wood bed would need closer to 7 hrs. The quality improves it even more. The dresser and end table both improve this. The material and quality doesn't matter, but can help bring everything down to needing less than 6 hrs of sleep. That can really help out a colony, much more than the mood bonuses.

Yeti is the "master" yet I came to the comment section to mention this. It's almost embarrassing how no one seems to check their stats etc before posting a comment, thread, post or video. Makes me nuts.

[@Randy-br4nk]

At 19:10 you reference space and guess that it has something to do with the foot of the bed and a log function. The space of a room is actually pretty simple. It is 1.4 for every standable tile and 0.5 for every walkable tile rounded to the nearest integer. For example, the 2x2 with a double bed had 4 walkable tiles for a total storage of 2 while the single bed room had 2 of each for a total space of 3.8 or 4 when rounded. This also accounts for chairs of all kinds. Since pawns can stand, or sit, on chairs they do not reduce the space of a room.

[@Bill_Garthright]

Very useful! Thanks. I'm playing my first game, and I made all of my colonists nice, big bedrooms made out of marble, with marble tile floors and a marble door, a wooden bed, dresser, and end table, air conditioning, and a light. The result? They complained about the "awful" bedrooms they had to sleep in! I was _so_ close to ordering them to fight a rhinoceros with their bare hands! :)

[@ApiolJoe]

Awful for such rooms? Are you sure you have a cleaner cleaning the rooms?

[@rocmage1366]

Maybe you have awful quality furniture. Also, Colonists only care about light when they are awake. 95% of the time they are in their room they are asleep.

[@JD_Mortal]

Yea, because they don't actually use anything in the room, other than the bed. If the game wasn't in hyper-time mode, and they actually "got dressed", and "sat to rest/read", and "stored personal items in drawers" (provisions, tools, mementos, etc...) Then it would be worth programming all that code. Why waste time making code that does essentially nothing, and does it poorly? It is cool that each room, depending on the beds in there, will get labeled as one room-type or another. But it is confusing if you overlap or combine rooms. (Put a medical bed in the kitchen, it is now a hospital. Change one bed to a prisoner-bed while keeping it as a medical bed too, and they all turn into prisoner beds and the kitchen is now a prison.) It would be cool if it, instead, had actual "room styles", and a "structure style". (Thus, you could have a BASE, vs a HOUSE. A PRISON, vs a JAIL. An INN, vs a BARRACKS.) Also, there should be a reason for various floor-types. One being easy to clean, one being hard to get dirty, one impossible to clean (dirt). With things like the cement (which oddly needs metal), being an actual "foundation" that can be placed over everything except deep-water, for building on. Instead, even if you have all cement floors, or marble, or wood... You can track massive dirt from all over the place, into corners you don't even use. (I am not even sure if the game can clean the dirt under beds, which might explain why the rooms end-up being "awful", even after cleaning. Because they still walk there, even if the bed is 100% of the floor, and the floor/dirt is 100% unseen.)

[@Metalhammer1993]

How clean are they? I have the same rooms round about at least, but i have one colonist that was a missclick (didnt want to save him from his pursuers) so he does nothing but cleaning all the time. If that doesnt do the job. Install vents and heaters. And if you put marble tables and steel dining chairs in there they rock up to slightly impressive! (Done that with my base because yeah i somehow had 3000 marble and i had an awful wooden barrack for all 3 at the start. I just made a bunch of decent bedrooms out of marble with dresser, heater, end table a table and two chairs each and marble tiles through literally the entire base)

I like these in depth exploration of game mechanics. It would be cool to see one about tempurature dynamics, work efficiency, and/or combat statistics.

[@JD_Mortal]

Warmer than 70, cooler than 90... However, apparently, your heaters and coolers work 24/7, even when not increasing the temperature. Hopefully they will just combine them into a single heat-pump, with the option to actually just "condition" the air. It is annoying to have to manually turn each one on and off, with seasons and between seasons, just to conserve the horrible power-mechanics of the game. (A generator producing 1000watts will start failing at around 500watts of "load", in the game. Causing everything to crap-out. Not to mention the horrible flaw with the code which drains batteries on "short-circuits", which are quite often.) I am not going to go into the stupidity that says a room is always "50% lit", if it is one torch or one light, or twenty... Or the fact that windows are not even an option, or second-stories, or basement storage, and insulation factors of materials is not a consideration. (Wood and plastic being more insulated, while metals are heat-transferable, and stones being more like a hot/cold buffer.) This is a game concept that has a lot of potential, but the developers of this game are just like Minecraft and Terraria now... Lazy, out of ideas, and out-of-reality imaginations that conflict too-much with reality and logic. The game is essentially being "kept alive", by people making mods to fix the issues, which then get "stolen/adopted", by the lazy coders, but in a horrible way. Just like the failed logic/application of various materials. They are either phanominal, without justification, or blatant confusions of logic. It's like that rabid squirrel which kills your whole encampment, but a whole tribe of 20 bandits that barely wounds two of your settlers... Or like having a bored settler turn pyromaniac, upsetting others by waking them, turning them into pyromaniacs with an itchy trigger-finger... Resulting in a cascade of game-ending events, while a full 360-degree endless forest fire barely does any damage.

[@trapbuilder2283]

I know this is over a year old now, but I'm pretty sure that when people are talking about the bed positioning, they weren't talking about stats, but the fact that colonists would either walk around or over a bed, increasing travel times by small amounts (and therefore having it in the corner is best as it doesn't get in the way)

[@GhostStealth590]

I noticed a 5x6 works well, not too big, but not too small. Red carpet, marble walls, a dresser, end table, potted plant, and a light. Typically there’s room for sculpture, and it’ll make the room impressive.

[@bonafide4874]

Yes! 5x6 is my go to! It’s good as well bc you can fit three beds in it, an end table and a statue and get it to slightly impressive. So if you’re starting out/ have just taken in new colonists you can put them all in one place. Same with children, who don’t mind sharing a bedroom. It’s also easy to build since it’s so small, so it’s relatively easy to quickly make a few 5x6 bedrooms.

I tend to default to 6x6 rooms, ideally smoothed marble (only recently discovered the benefit of smoothed against brick, particularly that you can actually lay power lines in smoothed walls) with smoothed floor, wooden double bed, wooden end table, wooden wardrobe, wooden door, lamp and wooden daylily pot. For most part, it does the trick.

[@Reddsoldier]

For the sake of fire safety I almost always ensure that the flooring beneath a door, as well as the door itself is fire resistant to prevent spread in larger structures. It's good to see that it doesn't affect the beauty as I thought it did (though I was happy with the safety tradeoff).

[@tsunamio7750]

19:25 Not only did you miss all the data and functions behind each variable but you made dull designs for 2x1 rooms! THIS IS INCREDIBLE! Even if you lack on the theory side and had to do it by "trial and error", you did make something very interessting. Aimed right at the good spot: Neutral mood room. GG Now: Cleanliness has quite an impact on rooms. At least on larger rooms, you'd prefer to prioritarize it over beauty since every values are following a logarithmic function (the more, the less in return), as such, you should try sterile tiles more often. One statue at 100 beauty + 0.40 sterile room might get you very far for little to no work.

[@melkirich]

Thanks Yeti for the guide, there is a problem with chairs and tables in bedrooms though, if the colonists decide to eat their breakfast in someone else's room they are likely to cause the disturbed sleep debuff, can get around it by zoning the base so people can only reach their own table but too much zoning can cause other problems, and there's a mod to remove disturbed sleep but then of course it's no-longer vanilla.

[@Tiver7]

I believe the bed positioning rumor also dealt with disturbed sleep as it was thought to be proximity based so it was more placing the bed to ensure no one made sounds near where their bed was. If this was ever true, it no longer is.

This is really great, but one thing that would have been nice is to see the lowest wealth you can spend on a room for no moodlet. I suspect the marble 4x2 room with double bed is probably it, but not 100% sure. Reason this is important is because on higher difficulties having too much wealth makes the raids difficult or even impossible to deal with. Still helpful video, think I can probably piece together what to do with rooms on extreme based on this video. Cheers.

[@tsunamio7750]

20:40 Comfort (with beauty) is super duper important for inside nerds(dwarfs). If you have a medic (non combat) or a crafter, get them the best beds and chairs, make sure they have to walk under the sky once a day and you get a no-break deal.

One aspect of your presentation in general that I really enjoy is that you take the time to detail the rationale behind your decisions when playing. This vid in particular had some real good conclusions come of it. Also, FWIW, I second the request for a "prison mechanics" vid - have always been curious about the ins and outs of that. Also, infestations! There is a myth of sorts about invasions favoring rough/unlit over finished/lit rooms. Would be really cool to actually explore the facts there as well.

[@chinanumba1723]

THIS IS A GRAND TUTORIAL EVER! THANKS !

[@ImSquiggs]

I think the reason people used to put beds (and workbenches) in the center of rooms has to do with the early editions calculating room size and impressiveness based on where the pawn was standing (IE, pawns in a corner would think their room is smaller because their radius includes a lot of tiles outside the room). I don't think that applies anymore though

[@tsunamio7750]

25:50 Excellent! Nice job!

[@JohanDanielsson8802]

I have heard or read somewhere, that it should be better to place the bed in the middle of the room. Not that it would impact the room stat, but that it would give the pawn a feeling of having it more spaceous when sleeping in the bed. Likewise, the same source told that it is better to place work positions in the middle of the rooms, in order to give the pawns more of that spaceous feeling.

[@Andrei-ds8qv]

Sir, that is one of the nerdies things I have seen in my life. Thanks!

[@RookOfOnyx]

You're under utilizing silver walls. 50 silver for 6 beauty and a big wealth boost which can be shared between two, three, or even four bedrooms. Precious material walls are a very under rated way of getting good bedrooms. As well as just making them bigger. I make 15x15 squares with 4 bedrooms each. All bedrooms have 29 tiles of space, with one pair being 4x7+1 and the other pair being 6x5-1. On regular crashlanded scenario you start with more than enough silver to make the shared walls out of silver for instant slightly impressive bedrooms on the first night.

Adding art to 4x4 rooms makes it easy to get good moodlets.

[@gkagara]

Just put jade royal with jade dresser in 5x5 room it will give you impressive, no need gold floor and stuff just smoothed walls and floor, while you at it throw small small art and maybe put potted plant inside. Tbh living under the mountain has it downside with entombed underground minus 9 mood, so make sure you build many horsehoe pin and stuff for recreation outside.

[@killtyrant]

I've gotten lucky and my mountain base had a hidden valley that was surrounded on all sides by mountain. So I simply put the dining area in that area and overcame that mood moodlet.

[@LetsPlayCrazy]

Question to all of you: I thought dresser and endtable increases regeneration gained by sleeping... dont they?

[@tomhill3248]

yes. rest effectiveness is good.

[@95birdman]

Thank you for giving a timeline early on.

Myth to debunk, raiders remember where traps are on future raids.

[@levalexandrov4652]

They don't. I was running a colony with a honeycomb of traps. They'd always trigger a fair few. The best way to ensure a trap triggers is to put it where an enemy would take cover vs. your defenders.

[@PhantomJavelin]

Absolutely not. Any kill-box/ trap maze makes it really obvious that hostile AI is very easy to manipulate and definitely don't consider things like trap placements.

[@henfinzim]

@Valux (le Velux) the classic trap maze to killbox.

That's when they realized, the walls were covered in scratches

[@tomhill3248]

@@absolutegarbage3654 I see a man who has great taste. I too am a fan of that specific African warlord.

MAN, THAT'S A EXEMPLE OF A VIDEO.

[@AtomicAlchemist]

I think having the bed near the door is good if you want to minimize the travel times, while in the middle and in the corner it just looks better.

[@NonEssentialNonsense]

Yeti, i love your videos, you always make me laugh 👍🏻

[@joewilson3393]

19:00 I think I read someplace that the space the bed occupies and other furniture counts as half a tile for walk ability. So that kinda explains why in a 2X2 with a double bed you have 2 tiles to walk on, but not really why in a 2X2 with a single bed you have 4 instead of 3....

[@adamrosenfield2209]

I would like an idea like this guide but for weapons ranged and melee

[@SaltyMaud]

I go with 5x5 bedrooms basically always. Easy to get to very impressive with common materials once you have a good builder and some random statues.

[@Ryan-hv3kn]

More guides please, Rimworlds 1.0 release is around the corner and having some nicely done guides waiting for the influx of new players would be wonderful. I'd also hope you'd do something something for Oxygen Not Included one day since no good guides exist anywhere.

[@christophercarlin7149]

Great job, only finding this in 2020.

[@TheDragonCat99]

"It's not worth it" Me, who tries to endgame in a way that makes every colonist as happy as possible: Is that a challenge?

[@azureknight777]

Good reason to tile under door would be to cut down on dirt tracking around if it's a dirt, gravel, or mud tile.

[@JStankXPlays]

And the whole video all Matt wanted to do was go to bed!

[@jem20081234]

This was very thorough from the perspective of room quality but I was a little disappointed that you ignored the rest effectiveness of the choices. Stone beds are not as effective at rest and same goes for not including dressers and nightstands. Including comments on the impact of those choices would make this more helpful towards specifically designing bedrooms.

[@JrTroopa]

Regarding space: If a pawn can stand there (chair or nothing) it counts as a full space. If they can path through it (bed, endtable) the space counts as half.

[@Tigercup9]

Now I really want to see what the literally *best* room possible is. I mean 63x64 gold walls, gold tiles, legendary gold royal bed with legendary gold artwork lining the walls (or whichever piece of furniture/art raises the quality most despite taking up space) just to see how impressive a room can get.
