Template:UC There are various methods to train your colonists various skills. Below are a few of the many ways possible.

Artistic training

Ensure a colonist is constantly set to create art. This boosts the skill quickly, especially if the colonist is interested in Art. The colonist will start by making low quality sculptures but will begin making very valuable masterworks before you know it.

Construction training

Combined Construction and Shooting Training

This method trains the Construction and Shooting skills simultaneously. This image demonstrates the combined Construction and Shooting training.

When using this method, keep in mind the possibility of friendly fire. It the shortest path from point A to point B goes through the live side of the firing range, one of your colonists may be hit. An easy solution to this problem is to isolate the firing range from the rest of your base and never use orders in the region without holding fire.

Helpful Tips:

  1. Do not make either room smaller than three tiles to prevent the "cramped environment" debuff.
  2. Use Stone Walls for their superior durability.
  3. Designate the colonists you intend to train so that they can only repair.
  4. Increasing the number of shooters increases the rate at which the walls are damaged. It is important to have a balance of shooters and repairers.
  5. Watch the shooter's morale, if they are drafted too long a mental break becomes likely.
