How To Satisfy Citizen And Worker Needs In SteamWorld Build?
You can satisfy citizens and workers by providing them with the infrastructure they would require for happiness. Citizens can request service buildings like the General Store or production buildings like the Cactus Farm. Each citizen can be classified into tiers that have their specific ‘needs’ fulfillment quota.
Once their needs are met, these Citizens can be upgraded to Workers, then Engineers, and so on. But do keep in mind that once the Workers are upgraded into Engineers, they are not replaced with additional Workers. So, make sure you have additional Workers running your workshops, and factories before turning all of them into Engineers.
How To Check The Needs Of Citizens?
To check the needs of citizens in SteamWorld, just select their residential complex and see what buildings they require to be made for 100% satisfaction. Once you reach that quota, you can move on to higher tiers and focus on their needs.
Satisfying needs will also increase the maximum occupancy of each residence which will in turn facilitate more citizens to join your town.
