Worst party spot pickers!

#ColonistLife

Now, I know that I can manually place a spot where they should have parties.

But I have not done so for my current map. And wow, my guys are desperate!

Party No.1: Literally on the other side of the map. Exactly 1 table and 1 chair. No lighting. No decoration.

Party No.2: Equally far away. Exactly 1 table and 1 chair. No lighting. No decoration. Tons of metal chunks everywhere.

Best. Party. Evar!

My colonists once decided to hold a wedding in the middle of my corpse dumping zone. Very romantic, 10/10 would recommend.

I can just imagine the mood debuff!

I guess the mood was pretty...dead?

My colonists kept having parties in my burn box when 1x2 tables were the most efficient material to burn. Took me far too long to figure out what was happening.

Some say it's the hottest new scene. All the parties are lit!

HA right, I don't have a good "designated" party spot yet but our last big feast was hosted by... A three year old, in a tiny hospital room, with nothing but a bed, one table, one chair, and a wall torch. During the summer. With at least 10 people in one room. Siiiigh.

I have 3 huge party rooms that are close to 14 x 14/with widescreen TVs, billards tables, poker tables, large dining tables with lots of chairs, multiple arm chairs, several pieces of jade art, etc.

They keep having parties in the little 7x7 dining rooms I have scattered about for workers to eat at so they don't moan about not eating at a dining table during the day when wandering around the city and fields on their jobs.

The little dining rooms have a single 1 x 2 table with dining chairs, a chess table with stools or maybe a little tube TV, a single arm chair, a dog bed, and are really meant mainly for people in the bedrooms they are attached to.

40 colonists (I am enjoying simulating a city) keep packing into these small rooms. Is there a way to fix this? So they still eat at in the little sub dining/living rooms when they need to but party in the big dining/party/rec rooms?

Edit: I think you have to turn tables off as gathering spots except for your party rooms?

I'm actually curious to know if there is some way to influence their choice beyond putting a party spot down.

Get the mod to disable automatic party spot. Remember to enable the rec room/dining room table and maybe any ritual room ones too.
