Gaining SkillsEither now (if you take a Dupe with your first print) or in Cycle 5 (otherwise), you'll find yourself with a brand-new skill point for use. Since the goal is to make this the central tower, this is an ideal place to establish our first Oxygen production building once we get there - it's the best place to promote airflow within the base! You'll note that I'm establishing a vertical corridor 6 tiles wide near to the Printing Pod's area - the huge open space with the ladder circled in cyan.It may seem excessive, but that space can be very useful for routing wires, pipes, and valves later on. The Central CorridorNow's probably a good time to talk about a few details of my personal design patterns.
Don't worry about the door until you have at least the sink and outhouse in place, though - all three parts are required for the bonus, and preventing 'accidents' is more important than a little Morale bonus at this point. I built one in the pool of water just to the left of the image above.While there's technically no need to build a door on the room like I have above, it comes with a big benefit:More Morale means happier Dupes, and the more responsibilities they'll be comfortable having within the base. I'm prioritizing a dig on the right-hand side, partly to get to the pool of Water over there, but also partly because it works well with some of my personal base-building strategies.Here's an interesting image from later in that may also help:We'll talk more about the downtime stuff later, but note how the combination of personal and errand priorities determine the order in which Turner will carry out tasks. Errand PrioritiesEach Dupe's personal priorities are combined with each work order's priorities - check out the following image in comparison:In this image, building the ladder has priority 6, meaning that if possible, Dupes will ignore any 5-or-less priority task of similar type in favor of building it. (You'll only need one Cook and one Farmer for much of the game, for example.). That said, some should specialize in unique roles like Turner, expediting the growth of your colony as a whole instead. Research tasks run for a long time, and Dupes are too polite to bump others from tasks, even when far more qualified - this makes sure that it's reserved for him.As you gain more Dupes, think about their specialities and how they can help expedite the work of others. He'll also make sure Turner's research materials are always available, keeping things moving smoothly.Since I want only Turner to do research, I've blocked the other two - and any additional Dupes - from being allowed to research. As soon as we place our first Research Station and start assigning tasks there, Turner will stick to it like glue, only stopping for breaks and for battery recharges.Since Turner will be busily researching, Ren's set to help Turner out constantly with material supply for building projects.
