Now you restrict Molly to this newly created zone. The zone can be composed of several disconnected areas. These areas do not have to be adjacent (connected). a place where food is stored (maybe not necessary in this example, because the freezer is already covered).Molly's bedroom (so she can go to rest as usual).the area where the work needs to happen (freezer in this example).In this case, you will create a new zone for Molly, containing exactly these areas in your base: Using temporary zone restrictions to direct colonistsДЄ technique that is mentioned a few times in this article, is to create a zone only to restrict a colonist to a very specific area, in order to force them to perform a task.ДЄs an example, consider colonist 'Molly', who you want to smooth the floor in your freezer in the next few days, and do nothing else. Only do that if you really have to.Д®ven a colonist that is bad at everything, and passionate for nothing (these exist.) should be a hauler and cleaner, or maybe the guy who fulfills that caravan trade request 5 days away, before you let them repair a mountain stone face for days just to get them 3 levels of construction. If you train a colonist by letting them do busy work, or monkey business, you are wasting one of the most valuable colony resources, namely work hours. Normally this is because an untrained worker would be a liability вЂ“ for example, an untrained cook can cause food poisoning, and an untrained miner can waste valuable resources while trying to extract them. This is usually only necessary and recommended if you need a certain ability on a colonist, but do not want to use this person for productive work. This article talks about a few special ways to forcibly train colonists in certain skills. Smithing and tailoring are actually sub-skills of crafting, but do not have their own skill level.Many construction tasks could plausibly instead be crafting, smithing or tailoring tasks.Brewing beer is a cooking task (not crafting, which would be plausible).Butchering a dead animal is a cooking activity.Making Kibble is done at the butchering table, but requires and trains cooking.Cutting stone blocks does not train any skill (but requires crafting to be allowed as a task).

Making medicine and hard drugs ( flake, yayo, etc.) requires and trains intellectual (not crafting).Making smokeleaf joints requires and trains cooking (not crafting).In a few cases it is not obvious that a specific task trains a seemingly unrelated ability: If a colonist is assigned to a task (via the Work tab) with a sufficiently high priority, they will eventually perform it and gain skill points. 3.2 Repairing things to learn constructionДЄll skills in Rimworld improve simply while they are used there is nothing special that needs to be done in addition to that.1 Using temporary zone restrictions to direct colonists.
