Outdoors is the need for every pawn without the Undergrounder trait to be outside. Even when landed on a frontier world, most pawns feel the need for the great outdoors. Keeping them inside for too long will eventually affect their mood negatively.

This isn't a much of a concern for certain professions. Farmers, animal handlers and hunters will go outside quite regularly. It's more of a concern for pawns whose jobs keep them inside: cooks, builders, tailors, crafters, artists, researchers, etc.

Strategies

  • Most pawns that aren't zoned out will satisfy this need on their own by going on a walk during Recreation.
  • Spacing out your colony buildings from each other can help satisfy this need simply by forcing pawns to walk outdoors between them.
  • Build your Rec Room outdoors will allow your pawns to see nature while they unwind.
  • Manually Draft them and move them outside for awhile.
  • Pawns not under roofs will gain Outdoors faster than under roofs.
  • Testing is needed to see if Events like Auroras cause pawns to gain this need faster.
