Doomsday Home Guide

Answer 1

Here are some strategies for Doomsday Homes:

** 1. Resource Management **
1. ** Water Resources **
- Water source classification and acquisition:
- If the map was near the sea, a water collector could be built to collect saltwater, but the saltwater could not be directly drunk. It needed to be treated with seawater desalination, but this process required a lot of labor and electricity.
- Building water collectors at the river or pumping machines at the well water could collect contaminated water. The amount of well water was limited. Although the river was infinite, it could be cut off by the weather. Drinking contaminated water directly would cause illness.
- Water resource conversion: After water is collected by a water collector or a water pump, it is transported to a reservoir through a pipeline. Then, the contaminated water is transported from the reservoir to the desalination center and the wet land to be converted into low-quality water. Finally, the low-quality water is converted into clean water through the decomposition center. Different water storages could only store the same type of water. Water was transported through pipes between different facilities. Different materials of pipes consumed different waste materials and transportation losses. The terrain affected the direction of transportation. From the bottom to the top, it might require an Archmedes screw pump.
- [Reduce water consumption: The construction of a Level 1 water distribution center can increase the efficiency of water distribution. For example, the daily water consumption of residents can be reduced from 50 points to 30 points.]
2. ** Food Resources **
- [Early stage: Berries are an important source of food in the early stage. There is no need to build harvesting facilities, arrange labor and build granaries nearby to collect and store them. However, the number of berries is limited and they are contaminated food, causing residents to fall ill or even die.]
- [Later stage: Build a farm on the cultivated land. Inject water into the farm to produce food. The quality of the water determines the quality of the food. The food does not need to be transported by pipeline. It can be stored by building a granary within the farm.]
3. ** Other Resources **
- In terms of building materials, all buildings needed to consume waste materials. The pipes that transported water consumed a certain amount of waste materials according to the length of the laying. The periodic replacement of the filter in the desalination center also needed to consume waste materials. The amount of waste materials on the map was limited.
- In terms of energy supply, the power in the game was divided into wind power (windmill), water power (waterwheel), and solar power (solar panels). The weather would affect the power generation. For example, wind power and solar power would stop when there was a sandstorm, and water power would stop when there was a drought. The higher the altitude, the greater the wind power.

** 2. Resident Management **
1. ** Basic needs met **
- The basic needs of the residents were housing, food, and water. In terms of housing, 6 people would live in Level 1 houses (Research can increase it to 10 people), and 8 people would live in Level 2 houses (Research can increase it to 14 people). They had to build enough houses according to the total number of residents, otherwise, the residents would be exhausted and their happiness would decrease.
- In terms of food and water, the citizens needed to consume 50 points of water and food per day (the consumption could be changed through some buildings and decrees). Food that was stored for a long time would be contaminated.
2. ** Maintaining the happiness of residents **
- If the residents 'needs were not met the day before, their happiness level would decrease by 25%. When the happiness level drops to 25%, the residents will stop working. When the happiness level drops to 0%, the residents will leave their residence. In addition, there was a chance that residents would fall sick if they consumed contaminated food and water for a long time. If sick residents stopped working, they would die if they were not treated in time.

** 3. Construction facilities **
1. ** Building classification and function **
- Construction facilities were divided into four categories: collection and conversion, warehouse allocation, quality of life, and improvement.
- For example, the facilities related to water collection and conversion included water collectors, water pumping machines, desalination centers, wet lands, and oceanic decomposition centers; food production mainly relied on farms; and distribution centers could improve the efficiency of food and water distribution.

** 4. Special circumstances **
1. ** population management **
- In the apocalypse, humans were the primary productive force and one of the core resources. One had to pay attention to the balance between population and resources. They had to satisfy the needs of the population and use the population to produce and build resources.
2. ** Dealing with the risk of resource exhaustion **
- Due to the limited amount of waste, once it was exhausted, it would affect water and food production. Therefore, it was necessary to plan the use of waste reasonably and prioritize the waste demand of key facilities (such as the desalination center).
3. ** Dealing with the problem of residents falling ill **
- Because residents could get sick from eating contaminated food and water for a long time, they had to provide clean food and water as much as possible. At the same time, they could consider building medical facilities (if there were such settings in the game) to treat sick residents and protect the labor force.
