Motivatorium

The Motivatorium is a large civic building that provides continuous Motivation to nearby beavers. It occupies a 5×5 flat footprint and must be placed on level ground. The structure is intended as a permanent morale booster for densely populated districts and is treated as a single-purpose civic attraction that influences beaver behavior by increasing their motivation stat while within its effective area.

Construction and placement follow the standard large-building rules: the Motivatorium requires a flat 5×5 foundation area, so terrain must be leveled prior to placement. It does not require workers to operate once built; its effect is passive and applies automatically to beavers within range.

Practical notes and usage tips:

• Always prepare a cleared, leveled 5×5 area before attempting to place the Motivatorium to avoid placement failure.
• Position the Motivatorium centrally to cover as many houses, workplaces, and transit paths as possible so beavers receive the bonus during routine movement.
• Combine Motivatoria with other happiness and comfort improvements (housing upgrades, decorations, shade trees) to maximize retention in large settlements.
• Use roads or direct paths that route beavers through the Motivatorium’s range to ensure consistent benefit for commuting workers and residents.
• Monitor population and demand: build the Motivatorium when settlements reach sizes where passive motivation gains materially reduce downtime and wandering.
