How to add a bar
« on: July 03, 2011, 11:42:41 pm »

One of the scenarios I often do is building an Inn with a secret dwarven undergound inside for a group of werewolf worshiping dwarves. What I have been usually doing is making a bar in the fashion of a wide U shape with chairs on the outside with a drink stockpile on the back side. (Like the counter at a Denny's resturant). I was wondering what it would take to mod a Bar as a 5x5 workshop with a bartender position to generate happy thoughts to the dwarves sitting next to it.

Thoughts?

No way to generate happy thoughts at the moment, I'm afraid.
I keep hearing people say that in the next release "syndromes" will be able to do a lot more things, and that might be one of them. So...in the future, you could make a reaction called "Bartend" or whatever that creates an inorganic that automatically boils into gas and, when inhaled, makes everyone happy or something. At least, so I've heard.

first can workshops generate happiness?
second could someone get multiple people 'working' in one workshop.
if both answer is no then I guess you could make 'chairs' and have them place around the main bar workshop. the bartender makes 'drinks' all day and you could have it so the tables all have food stockpiles on them so that the haulers can bring them their food/booze.

A dwarf can see a workshop and get a happy thought from it if it's high quality.

Workshops are for one dwarf at a time right now.

so make a workshop to grind a dwarf to produce high quality materials then make the bar?
