== Overview ==
Services provide bonuses to [[Resolve]]. The more Services you provide to your [[Villager]]s, the higher their [[Resolve]] will go. Viceroys need '''both''' a Service Building, '''and''' the goods to provide a Service in that building. For example, to provide {{Service link|Leisure|small}}, a Viceroy needs to build a {{bl|Tavern}} '''and''' provide {{rl|Ale|small}} for the service need to be fulfilled.


In addition to [[Housing Need|Housing]] and [[Food Need|Food]], [[Villagers]] need access to ''Services'', which represent comfort and relaxation beyond survival. Villagers who have satisfied their need for these Services receive a larger bonus to their [[Resolve]] than they do from satisfying their other needs for shelter and food. To satisfy an entire village and win through gaining Resolve, you will likely have to provide more than one Service.

=== Satisfying Services ===
To satisfy a Service Need, you need:
* A Service Building + A Service Good + 1 Villager in the Service Building.
 
So, to satisfy the {{Service link|Leisure|small}} need, you need a {{bl|Tavern}}, some {{rl|Ale|small}} and 1 [[Villager]] staffing the [[Building]]. The race of the [[Villager]] staffing the building does not matter, but some [[Villagers]] find [[Comfort]] in some Service Buildings, granting them +5 [[Resolve]].
 
Service [[Building]] Blueprints can be purchased from [[Traders]] or rewarded for [[Reputation]] gain. You can also get a Service Building by repairing a [[Ruin]] or cleansing a [[Haunted Building]]. Service Goods can be purchased from [[Traders]], found in [[Abandoned Caches]], rewarded from [[Orders]], and manufactured by Viceroys in the settlement.
[[File:ServiceBuildingSettings.png|500px|left]]
=== Controlling Services ===
On the left, we can see:
# The [[Specialization]] or [[Comfort]] bonus workers get from working in this [[Building]]
# One worker is assigned. This is enough to enable the Service Need.
# {{Service link|Leisure|small}} is enabled in this building
# {{Service link|Luxury|small}} is disabled in this building
# We need 3 workers to gain the special effect this building provides. Hovering over this panel will tell you what the effect is.


Satisfying a Service Need requires consumption of a [[Resources#Service_Goods|service-related good]]. These goods are manufactured through multi-step production chains requiring several different [[Blueprints]], or they can be purchased from certain [[Trading|Traders]].
=== Service Buildings and Unique Effects ===


[[Villagers]] can consume more than one service-related good to satisfy more than one of their required Service needs within one resting period. Like with food, access to services can be disabled through [[Consumption Control]], and denying the service incurs a Resolve penalty.
Each Service Building has unique effects when staffed to specification. Services Need '''do not''' need to be enabled to gain these effects.
For example, if you built a {{bl|Monastery}}, but do not have {{rl|Incense}} or {{rl|Ale}}, the effect (-100 [[Hostility]]) will still become active if staffed to specifications.


Villagers satisfy their need for Services at the same time they satisfy their need for food, when they rest at the [[Hearth]]. They consume one of the service-related goods if the corresponding [[Buildings#City_Buildings_2|Service Building]] has the good in stock (at the building, not at the Warehouse) and at least one worker. They do not visit the service building itself, and the service building does not need to be fully staffed.
Effects are as follows:


Note that [[Clothing Need]] satisfied by [[Coats]] is not a Service Need, because there is no service-related building for Coats.
* {{bl|Bath House|med}}: [[Villagers]] leave 30% slower. Global Production rate is 25% faster.
* {{bl|Clan Hall|med}}: +100% yield to all Camps except Woodcutters.
* {{bl|Explorers' Lodge|med}}: +1 Global [[Resolve]] for every rebuilt / salvaged [[Ruin]]. Retroactive.
* {{bl|Forum|med}}: Chance of producing double yields increases by 15%.
* {{bl|Guild House|med}}: Traders arrive 50% faster. +1 to Global [[Resolve]] for every 75 {{rl|Amber}} worth of goods sold. Retroactive.
* {{bl|Market|med}}: Global Carrying capacity increased by 10.
* {{bl|Monastery|med}}: -100 [[Hostility]].
* {{bl|Tavern|med}}: +3 to Global [[Resolve]].
* {{bl|Tea Doctor|med}}: +1 to Global [[Resolve]] for every 200 Complex Food eaten. Retroactive.
* {{bl|Temple|med}}: -25 [[Hostility]] for every 200 seconds of sacrifices in the [[Hearth]]. Retroactive.

Diagram connecting Species and the Services they need

Overview

Services provide bonuses to Resolve. The more Services you provide to your Villagers, the higher their Resolve will go. Viceroys need both a Service Building, and the goods to provide a Service in that building. For example, to provide Leisure Leisure, a Viceroy needs to build a Tavern and provide Ale Ale for the service need to be fulfilled.

Consumption and Satisfaction

Satisfying Services

To satisfy a Service Need, you need:

  • A Service Building + A Service Good + 1 Villager in the Service Building.

So, to satisfy the Leisure Leisure need, you need a Tavern, some Ale Ale and 1 Villager staffing the Building. The race of the Villager staffing the building does not matter, but some Villagers find Comfort in some Service Buildings, granting them +5 Resolve.

Service Building Blueprints can be purchased from Traders or rewarded for Reputation gain. You can also get a Service Building by repairing a Ruin or cleansing a Haunted Building. Service Goods can be purchased from Traders, found in Abandoned Caches, rewarded from Orders, and manufactured by Viceroys in the settlement.

Controlling Services

On the left, we can see:

  1. The Specialization or Comfort bonus workers get from working in this Building
  2. One worker is assigned. This is enough to enable the Service Need.
  3. Leisure Leisure is enabled in this building
  4. Luxury Luxury is disabled in this building
  5. We need 3 workers to gain the special effect this building provides. Hovering over this panel will tell you what the effect is.

Service Buildings and Unique Effects

Each Service Building has unique effects when staffed to specification. Services Need do not need to be enabled to gain these effects. For example, if you built a Monastery, but do not have Incense Incense or Ale Ale, the effect (-100 Hostility) will still become active if staffed to specifications.

Effects are as follows:

  • To gain the perk a Service Building provides, it needs to be fully staffed.

List of services needs

Each service can satisfy more than one species. Correspondingly, each of the five species require different combinations of the possible services available. The following shows the relationships between service (and the service-related good) and species.

The service building is also listed for convenience. See the next section for a table of buildings that may help you choose your Blueprints.

Strategy and Special Combinations

Based on the Species in your Settlement, there are obvious choices and options to avoid when seeking to provide Services. However, note that if the Building provides an exceptional working bonus for your Settlement's specific needs, then it is always worth considering if you can assign full workers to it.

  • No single Service Building can serve all five Species. This means there is no "always okay" choice.
  • Two Buildings serve all but one of the five Species all by themselves. These two Buildings can be excellent choices to cover the Service Needs of your Settlement if you do not have the respective Species in your Settlement.
  • Beavers and Foxes each have three Service Needs. Combined, Beavers and Foxes have the same number of Service Needs as the other three Species.
    • If you do not have Beavers in your Settlement, the Forum and Tavern are less useful, since they both double-down on Beavers' needed Services.
    • If you do not have Foxes in your Settlement, the Market and Tea Doctor are less useful, since they both double-down on Foxes' needed Services.
    • If your Settlement has both Beavers and Foxes:
      • The Market is an excellent choice if you also have Harpies. (4/8 your Service Needs satisfied by one Building.)
      • The Tavern is an excellent choice if you also have Humans. (4/8 your Service Needs satisfied by one Building.)

There are a few special cases worth mentioning due to these two Buildings that provide only one Service.

  • If your Settlement has Beavers, Humans, and Lizards:
    • You have less need for the Bath House, since it only serves Treatment Treatment, and none of your Species needs that Service. (0/7 your Service Needs satisfied.)
    • You have less need for the Market, since only Beavers benefit from only Luxury Luxury. (1/7 your Service Needs satisfied.)
    • The Monastery is an excellent choice, since it provides no Services to Foxes or Harpies anyway. (4/7 your Service Needs satisfied.)
  • If your Settlement has Harpies, Humans, and Lizards:
    • You have less need for the Guild House, since it only serves Luxury Luxury, and none of your Species needs that Service. (0/6 your Service Needs satisfied.)
    • You have less need for the Market, since only Harpies benefit from Treatment Treatment. (1/6 your Service Needs satisfied.)
    • You have less need for the Tavern, since only Humans benefit from Leisure Leisure. (1/6 your Service Needs satisfied.))
