Temperature/heat transfer inside a room is instantaneous regardless of room size. Larger rooms have more thermal "mass", and their temperature changes more slowly than smaller rooms. Large temperature differences, open doors, open roofs, and long thin rooms can make temperature hard to regulate. Keep in mind that heat transfers between rooms and also the outside through roofs, walls, and doors.
Indoor temperature can be managed through structures in the temperature menu. When faced with temperature extremes, colonists automatically search for and equip any suitable clothing they can find in storage.Īll indoor rooms have their own temperature which can be seen by mousing over it. Colonist moods ignore clothing when sleeping, becoming unhappy in a mildly cold or hot bedroom. Be careful though, because unpredictable events like cold snap and volcanic winter can also change outdoor temperature unexpectedly.Ĭlothing modifies the temperatures that cause heatstroke or frostbite, as well as the various mood debuffs from uncomfortable temperatures. Outdoor temperature usually fluctuates slowly by day and season and is bounded by the climate of your biome. Warm temperatures rot food and corpses, and extreme heat causes heatstroke which can also lead to death. Freezing temperatures preserve food and corpses indefinitely, but can also cause hypothermia in living things and eventually freeze them to death. Extreme cold or heat can even kill animals, and extreme heat can cause and sustain fires.Ĭold temperatures preserve food and corpses by slowing spoilage. Temperature also plays a major role and is affected by many things in world generation. In some biomes outdoor temperature can reach deadly highs, lows, or both depending on the season - pawns must wear appropriate clothing to survive long periods of time outdoors. Temperature mostly affects pawn mood, food and corpse spoilage, and plant growth. Temperature management is an important part of a productive colony.
