Author Topic: Meeting area skipped in favor of dining hall, causing bad thoughts  (Read 1083 times)

My expedition leader is having to constantly and repeatedly meet with a few mildly unhappy dwarves grousing about having to build in the rain. She hosts these meetings in the tavern, since that's about the only comfortable location that's been built so far. The tavern consists of a meeting area and a dining hall. The meeting area is in the long lobby or foyer just inside the door, while the dining hall is a larger area further inside.

Does anyone have any idea why she always walks through the meeting area to conduct meetings in the dining hall, and then complains that she is "embarrassed" because she "has to" conduct them there? What am I missing that's a necessary part of a tavern's meeting area? I used to have the two zones overlap, but then the game complained about the overlap, so I separated them.

If you assign an office to your expedition leader, she will conduct meetings there instead of the tavern.

Thank you! No meetings in the meeting area. Got it.

Nobles want to meet in a private office, not in a public one.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.
