Bookkeeper complaining about office being too valuable.
« on: December 26, 2011, 08:44:54 pm »
I made my bookkeeper a modest office, and now he is saying he wants a meager office, how could I bring the rating down?
The office has a chair, 2 doors, and the walls are smoothed. It used to have a cabinet and a chest, but I removed those.
How could I fix this problem?

That is his room requirements. No need to bring it down. A modest office is better than a meager office and it's ok. He'll still work.

I think that's just listing the minimum quality facilities that the bookkeeper needs (like, just actually having an office) rather than what they have to have. You don't have to make it less valuable.

I am often bad at phrasing things - don't hesitate to ask for clarification if something I said doesn't make sense.

It would get rid of floor engravings, sure, but I don't think the OP has any of those.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.

Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

It'd also get rid of the "Needs: Meager Office" entry.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

Now that he's gone, everyone is doing their part in replacing him.

1. Set a single chair somewhere
2. THAT IS YOUR OFFICE BOOBKEEPER

Anyway, as others have said, he can have the better one. It's better.

Giant badgers are cruel saddistic balls of fur and hate. Did anyone know they could paint a wall with a single dwarven baby?.... You know what, I made the Giant badgers sound like sane DF players.

What kind of training does one go through to be a boobkeeper?
