Man I learned so much about DayCore

I learned something today :-) Did not know about the max -1 negative decor limit. Here I was worrying about heavy watt wires all over the place, but it's not that bad actually. Very good to know! Thanks

Slobby dupe, cares less about negative decor. Prefers to eat BBQ with hot sauce. Never makes their bunk. Drops crumbs all over the dining hall :)

Gold sculptures(+52.5) are only beat by rarer space junk. Gold floor tiles(+22.5) too. You max out on 120 very quickly and you have the movement speed buff of metal tiles. It doesn't stop there. Use gold heavy watt conductive wire(-10) to heavily reduce the negative. You also want to use granite storage bins(-8) or heck even gold. Though I don't know what the decor of those are. The light speed bonus applies to anything that has a progress bar.

I once floored everywhere outside my base in gold made for some high speed movement. I always use Gold heavy conductive wire if I can I made a video on how good it was somewhere. I still think diamond is better to use as floors in the core living area, it has no run speed but you can stack the hell out of the decor. Moot point on my current map there is very little gold on it.

The deal though with using gold flooring is you get the 22.5 from the floor and the 22.5 from the ceiling above as well. Which makes those by themselves almost as good as one gold sculpture. +97.5 decor in one slice(floor ceiling statue).

@@0x0404 If you have transparent tiles and 5 statues in range of every tile every middle rooms will have 10 statues from adjacent floor hitting every tiles +300 decor. That is excluding plants, paintings etc. Once it gets late game enough and you have hidden all the negative decor it's over kill, but mid game it's very powerful.

A simple way to deal with debris early on is to build your base from the top down, mining out a floor, then mine the next level, then build the floor on the first level. All the debris will fall through to the lowest level. I always do this for bodies of liquid so my dupes aren't constantly getting wet fishing for building materials or sloshing around in polluted water.

The range of carpet tiles is really short, Diamond tiles are almost as good but have the benefit of allowing decor values from other areas to pass through. Combine that with how cheap and plentiful Diamonds are in game they are an easy choice.

Don't forget the Snazzy suits, they are a huge buff.

In my experience, as far as late game decor is concerned, gold metal flooring does WONDERS for decor (and has the added benifit of increasing duplicant runspeed). If you have a gold volcano, this is a useful side effect of tapping it for power.

Good and practical info

For the earlier part of the game it's a great idea to make all dupes wear snazzy suits. It will increase their decor average for themselves and everyone else, so you can easily get decent decor morale without even sweeping debris off the floor

Going above that means you can consistently get the effects of average +120 decor even if your dupes go somewhere with less than 120 decor. In many of his series he "decor bombs" his main base to get around +1000 or more while the dupes are sleeping, meaning that he doesn't need +120 decor in the industrial areas his dupes will be working in.

@FrancisJohnYT

4 жыл бұрын

That tool tip is very misleading. 120 decor is the max at which you will gain no benefit beyond. As in if you duplicant has an average decor exposure of 120+ for the day they will get +12 moral. Any more decor beyond that is a waste. However a duplicant can absorb over 1000 decor a second, this has been tested. So you expose them to 1000+ plus decor during sleep and dining and they will average 120 decor for the day even if they work in a horrible part of the map.

Why not just make comfy bedrooms to cancel out decor.

For practical purposes I have never found a use for paintings, statues and plants just work better in all in game scenarios I have encountered. Though I have to imagine their is some base designs it would work in. As for Gold being better than Diamond/Glass tiles diamond does not let decor through. This allows Glass tiles to double or even quadruple decor exposure for floors with the right statue placement.
