One thing I think the game is missing, is being able to have multiple doors in a room, so you could "chain" rooms. Fx. GP with 4 doors (1 on each side), one to the coridor, one to General Diagnostic, one to Cardiology and one to Fluid Analysis, so they can swoop back and forth when getting diagnosed.
@Helgacabbage4 жыл бұрын
It wouldn't work though. The order the patient is in the queue means they wouldn't naturally finish in general diag and then go straight through to the GP again, it would require a delay while the GP is seeing others. Multiple doors on certain rooms would be okay - like toilets. They could enter and exit from two sides and the room could be functional while also being used like a long corridor or something.

I do have to state that after building the staffe and setting the bathrooms as you instructed, my staff was not recovering as quickly as having a staff lounge. I built one next to the staffe without vending machines. They were able to eat and then relax. You may want to add that to an up coming video where you have all the tips laid out.Also can you make a video on the research room.Thanks again.

I don't know if you've moved away from this build, but I have just one note: this setup could make unhygienic employees more unattractive. Because they'll use a hand sanitizer in the staff room, this bad trait is usually not that impactful. But if there isn't a central location where they're sure to use one, it could make this trait worse.

The cafe is a curious entity because it has the *potential* to be really REALLY good, but it also has the potential to cause far more problems than it solves. This is an older video but I'm still experimenting with it to see if I can refine the build and setup to make it legitimately better.

Any merit to placing a single staff room right by the staff toilet & staffé? No food or drink in the staff room, but a place for entertainment and relaxation. (Also so the advisor will STFU.) Thoughts?
@Pinstar4 жыл бұрын
Staff members have a limited time for their break. A staff room might cause them to divert there and run out of time to also use the bathroom and get a bite to eat at the Cafe. Since eating at the cafe gives them superior stamina restoration (in addition to refilling their hunger and thirst needs and giving them the lingering food buff) it is a bit redundant so would probably do more harm than good in the long run. It's already a tight race for them to hit the cafe and use the toilet to begin with.

Great helpful videos! Unrelated to this but what diagnosis rooms do you actually need in your hospital? Can I remove early access rooms once I've unlocked x Ray, mega scan etc to save on the amount of staff I need? Takes up to much space to have all the rooms in the early part of the game, be easier to have gp office, x Ray, mega scan and no others.

Thanks for you advice :) I have noticed that the Mega Scan machine makes you lots of cash though. That was a nice bonus on the last hospital and made building money up to expand much easier. The general diagnosis machine seems a waste of space!

without analyzing the mechanics of the cafe the way you just did, I originally assumed the cafe was something to always try to have in your hospital since patients complain so much about everything. Is this poor game design? because it is clearly not working as intended, causing more chaos than anything else . Thank you for your videos!
@eureka3456 жыл бұрын
It really is poor design. If patients physically leave their queues to go to the washroom or cafe, etc., they should lose their spot in line. Or if not, if they aren't there when it's their turn, the queues should always just automatically skip to the next person.
@Pinstar6 жыл бұрын
It's partially a design flaw, but not in the 'gross oversight' sense. The whole draw of strategy and simulation games is that they are toolboxes. You are given a set of tools, in this case rooms items and staff, and given a problem to handle with those tools, but HOW you use the tools is up to you. Just because you have a tool doesn't mean you should always use it. Many people forget the null hypothesis. If you need to screw in a lightbulb and are told to pick a tool from a toolbox to do it, the option of 'no tool: I'll just use my hand" might be overlooked, yet is likely the superior option. I chalk the cafe up to being some some high-octane schmuck bait. Cheeky to be included and work the way it does, but still useful if used properly. Even if a mod/patch fixed the AI so a cafe-bound patient loses their place in line and doesn't hold up the whole room, you'll likely get negative outcomes as a patient's health is the ONE thing a cafe doesn't restore and taking a full minute to walk to the cafe, shove a burger down their gullet and walk back only to be placed back at the end of the line eats up precious time, all the while their health is draining away.

Why have all the toilets become patient only with one central staff only? Wouldn't it be more efficient to have staff use just any toilet?
@Pinstar6 жыл бұрын
Several reasons. 1. Frees up space in patient toilets reducing the chance that they get bogged down from staff AND patients. 2. Desperate for the toilet staff will prairie dog sprint to the toilet, getting them to the bathroom quicker...ultimately leading them to the cafe quicker. 3. Hungry/Thirsty staff will not instinctively go for the cafe the way that they would a staff room. , but rather grab the closest source of food/drink. There is no way to 100% prevent them from using vending machines intended for patients, but by drawing them to the toilets which are next to the cafe, you route most of them into the cafe. 4. The Good Meal buff is the star of the show, the happiness buff AND the decreased rate of energy decay make all this fuss worth it. Thus maximizing the % of staff on break finding and using the cafe is paramount. Luring staff to the cafe with a single staff room might also work, but staff cannot fulfill the bladder need in a staff room and that would make the build even bigger and bulkier than it is now. Curiously, this gambit makes the weak bladder character trait a beneficial one, as it all but guarantees a prairie dog sprint every time that staff member goes on break.

Elfsorrow - CHAOS. It takes patients off out of their queue for a room , but keeps them virtually in the queue so if it’s their turn it holds up the room queue if that person is casually eating a meal in another place or building
@Pinstar6 жыл бұрын
Exactly this. The reason the diagnostic mosh pit is built the way it is is that it keeps food/drink/toilets very close by so a patient fulfilling a need when their turn comes up won't take long to take their turn. If a patient is taking a marathon hike to go eat at the cafe when their turn comes up, nobody gets to use that room they are queueing in until they return. The result is massive queues and a lot of pissed/dead patients. And the cafe is too big and bulky to comfortably sneak in so building lots of cafes to make sure one is always close is not really viable.
