Rooms

## Building Rooms

To build a room, click on the Rooms button and pick one from the list. With a room selected, drag out a floorplan of the appropriate size. Then place the required items in the room, then click the green tick.

### Floor Plan

The player can add more space using the add blueprint button and remove space with the remove blueprint button. A room can be any shape or size, but the minimum size will be displayed at the top of the screen during room placement.

The player can amend the blueprint of a room later by selecting the room and then the Edit button.

The player can also pick up a blueprint by clicking and hold the room with the Right Mouse Button and dragging the room where required. The player may also rotate the room while dragging by pressing Right Mouse Button.

Once the player has placed a room, they do not need to enter blueprint mode to place new items within it. This is useful, as editing the blueprint of a room while it is in use kicks out all patients and staff.

### Minimum Requirements

All rooms have a minimum room size varying from 2x3 to 4x5 (some DLC rooms are up to 5x9). Every room has minimum item requirements to validate the placing of the player's blueprint. These required items are indicated by the yellow starburst icon.

The room cannot be accepted until all required items are placed and accessible. Item accessibility is indicated by footprints around the item while placing. Any optional items that have invalid placement will be deleted when the room is accepted.

## Prestige

As the player add more items to a room, the higher its value. This increases the room's prestige, which in turn increases the overall prestige of the player's hospital.

Prestige is a measure of a given Room's impressiveness. Prestige is ranked on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most impressive. It can be increased in two ways:

* Adding items to the room. Windows, Decorations, even mundane items like beds or Toilets increase a room's prestige.
* Increasing the size of the room. Just by being bigger, the room becomes more prestigious.

Being in a high Prestige room will give Staff and Patients a positive Feeling which increases their Happiness.

## Customisation

*Main article: Room Customisation*
The **Room Customisation** system, added to the game in Version 1.11, allows the player to change the walls and/or floors of any given room. This may be done by selecting "Customise" from the room inspector, then selecting the desired pattern from the selection available.

It is possible to configure each room individually, or apply the desired changes to all rooms of the same type in the same hospital; this will apply to further rooms built, not just existing ones.

The default options in the game will each need to be unlocked using Kudosh, with costs varying from K50 to K200. In addition, the player may use their own image files to create custom designs using the in-game editor, or download other players' designs from the Steam Workshop.

## Rooms List

Some rooms are available from the start of the game, however most rooms are unlocked during higher hospital levels and have certain prerequisites.

### Corridor

*Main article: Corridor*
Any part of a hospital plot that is not a room is considered to be a Corridor. The main items list pertains to corridors, many of which are exclusive to them, such as the Reception Desk.

### Diagnostic Rooms

These rooms are used to diagnose the various Illnesses.

### Treatment Rooms

These rooms are used to treat Illnesses after patients are diagnosed.

### Facility Rooms

These rooms are required to keep the player's hospital running smoothly.

## Trivia

While the minimum room size used to be 3x3 for most rooms, before release, this has since changed. Post release the Staff Room and Toilets can now have a minimum size of 2x3.
