I normally hesitate to say something is a bug, but this is getting ridiculous. Does anyone else have problems with sick people—as in, pandemic-level sickness numbers? It seems that no matter what I do, the numbers of sick people just skyrocket with no rhyme or reason. I ran some test games on normal difficulty. By 8am Day 2, between 50-80 people (i.e. literally everyone) were sick. It didn't matter if I ran the generator before shift ended and had tents up. It didn't matter if I had a cookhouse running. Google searches haven't been much use; does anyone have any insight? Am I missing something blindingly obvious?

Click on the tents and hover your mouse over the thermometer to check if they are properly heated. All around the generator and at "red" heat level, so it shouldn't actually be possible to get sick, yet somehow they managed it. In this particular case I cheated extra building materials because I wanted to see if having houses made any difference, but it clearly didn't.

Tinfoil Papercut posted:Also it's not built? Well, I mean... sure, I could build an infirmary and have 75 sick people and 5 in treatment. Would that solve the problem at its root? EDIT: That was a single sample of a game where I was experimenting. My original game had 6 infirmaries and was still overrun with sick people, who then became gravely ill. Initially I thought it was because I'd built some bunkhouses outside the generator's range, but the numbers still surprised me. EDIT 2: @vvv Yeah I'll keep hammering away. Maybe I'll get lucky.
