This is the one map I spent ages on finishing, partially because it got so hectic for so long that once I got things mostly under control it was a satisfying change of pace.

I mean I only ever really use one training room. They take up space I could be diverting for more gp offices.

I think two Training rooms is the sweet spot in a large hospital - but about 50 GP's I also think anything that can speed up diagnosis - like the Xray or CT scanner can really cut down the pressure on the GPs - I'll have to look into more of those.

It also helps to match diagnosis rooms to the illness and gain a small boost in progress, as well as having nurses/doctors absolutely specialized in diagnosis being in those rooms.

I haven't watched all videos, so maybe you've already done or seen these things and I just missed them. But here are a few more things that I've found helped a lot. In the menu at the bottom left: Go to $ -> Overview -> Policies. There you can set a couple of things. For example you can set it so that if the diagnosis is above a certain percentage, then the patients can immediately go to treatment, without first visiting a GP again. You can also set all workers to be automatically promoted (saving a lot of clicks). I also like lowering the warning for a long queue down to 4 or 5. As that is usually already a sign that it is taking too long. If you select a finished room, you can copy it. Very useful for building all the GP rooms you need. Though it is somewhat broken with the wards sometimes (the doors don't always want to fit when you rotate the room). Lastly, in one of the earliest videos you got a mission to kill some "monobeasts". You can find them by picking up drink/food machines, trash cans, etc. This only works on normal speed or high speed.

As neat as adding a cafe to your hospital might sound, it can lead to a massive deathtrap if placed poorly. Patients could go to the cafe, possibly ignoring multiple wending machines to get their meals while they are dying during the long walk and eating the meal in the cafe, taking their time and glogging up the queues they were at before and leaving other patients dying on the benches before they get their turn at the GPs office, IF they don't go hungry and go to cafe themselves, maintaining the problem. Same goes for staff, going to the cafe instead of munching on salty snacks next to their office doors. This issue might've been tweaked in a later patch, but last I heard, it was a big problem for many people and simply not building a cafe was better at the time.

Yeah, never ever touch a café if it's not needed by scenario goals If you absolutely have to, set it to staff only. Same thing for toilets: if you have a wing of your hospital reserved for staff facilities (training rooms, research, marketing etc.) then set any toilet there to staff only. You don't want a patient first in queue for a GP office crossing the whole loving hospital because it wanted to use THAT toilet. Ask me how I know about this  A small tip for an upcoming hospital: you can manually request a janitor to service any item (that actually requires servicing). Just click on the object and click on the janitor button. The button won't appear if the item has been recently serviced and is at completely full "health", though.

That's immensely useful for the public hospital (where you get paid for completing challenges instead of by the patients - challenges which often include "unclog X toilets" or "water Y plants").

Time to start a new wing mainly dedicated to patient diagnosis! Still not found the button to send people to treatment early - that's a few episodes off! This one has a good buffer, mainly as I enjoy playing it!

By the way, if you keep using cafès in later levels, can you check something? I've come across the (utterly unconfirmed) information that a patient that eats at a cafè has their hunger and thirst locked to max for the rest of their stay. You've clicked on a patient right as they finished eating a video or two ago, and the "nice meal" moodlet popped up into the patient's information. Mousing over a moodlet shows its effects, so if that information is true the moodlet should reflect it.

Ah, surgery. Still works like in theme hospital (patients don't need to touch base in a ward beforehand). The challenges for surgery are than an operation lasts forever and it gives only standard experience, so high level surgeons are simply not there. P.s. the GP-geddon is genuinely funny when I'm not the player dealing with it.

You're in the GP-geddon death spiral. I mean patient death, the hospital right now can't really fail anymore. You can't process your patients in a timely manner and they start clogging your Hospital level goes up with every room and staff hired; with hospital level more and harder patients come in. Rinse, repeat. Honestly it's not that detrimental, until you get a 90% cure rate objective and then you need to get creative to pass it because your hospital can't do it the honest way. The (non-cheese) solution I found to the GP-geddon is quality over quantity. There are also some cheesy stopgap solutions. Finding the details is left as an exercise to the LPer  **tone doesn't carry in writing. Am I being too rear end in a top hat here? EDIT: I forgot about the Galaxy Brain GP exploit. I think it'd be fun showing that for a level, but beware, for seductive the Dark Side is. Omobono fucked around with this message at 09:45 on Mar 12, 2020 |

If you're not above cheesing for that third star: pause the game, go into the patient panel in the bottom left, and kick out EVERYONE (there's not a kick out everyone button to the best of my knowledge, you'll have to go down one patient at a time). Then wait five to ten minutes and you should have your 90% cure rate.

I was actually wondering if that was a thing, I do remember kicking out everyone who ever threw up in my Theme Hospital game when there were any "vomit waves" going around, and for the low low price of like, 2% less reputation, suddenly everyone was fine!
