Gary: Add sortable room costs, occupancy, unlocks and service comparison

2026-10-05T23:39:39Z

Add sortable room costs, occupancy, unlocks and service comparison

New page

Compare the base functional rooms before committing to a build. For individual operating rules, follow the room links; for service details use [[Needs and requirements]]. [[Construction and demolition]] covers supporting floors and refunds.

== Reading the tables ==
* Money uses the game's '''dollar display'''. Other currency settings display equivalent amounts with different symbols and conversion. All upkeep values are '''per in-game day'''.
* '''Base upkeep excludes''' separately billed staff, supplies, power, property tax, upgrades and other operating costs. Construction prices exclude supporting floors and transport.
* Size is '''width in tiles × height in floors''', for one base room. Merged or upgraded rooms can differ.
* Unlocks below are the standard '''Nostalgia/Tokyo''' star tiers; '''0''' means available at the start. In Tutorial, Housekeeping is available at the start, while Subway Station and Stadium are outside its room catalog. Custom maps and mods may differ.
* Resident/guest figures describe base occupancy, not guaranteed current population. Worker figures are staffing defaults, '''not customer capacity'''. A stated maximum total occupancy includes staff.
* '''L2/L3''' refers to a room's evaluation level. Many rooms follow the tower's stars by default; changing a room's level policy changes when evaluated needs apply.

The service column is a planning summary, not a complete list of evaluation factors. All rooms still need a usable entrance route and power where their operation consumes it. Hotels, residential rooms, offices and shops also evaluate factors such as price, commute, environment or security; consult [[Room evaluation]] and the service matrix.

Garbage Chute Room needs a suitable [[Garbage Chute]] shaft. Parking stalls need a connected [[Parking Ramp]] or connected stalls. The [[Subway Station]] has map-specific underground placement. These prices do not include the infrastructure needed to reach or connect the facility.

== Add staffing and operating costs ==
Rooms with separately billed workers add wages to the base upkeep. For example, unupgraded [[Housekeeping]] has $400/day base upkeep plus $500/day per configured worker: its default two workers give '''$1,400/day''' before other tower costs.

[[Security Services]] uses day and night shifts. Its $800/day base upkeep plus $800/day per billable worker gives '''$4,000/day''' at the default two workers per shift. The staffing control is per shift, so there are four billable worker units.

Avoid comparing income to base upkeep alone. [[Budget]] explains recurring net income and why a new facility or construction bill can reduce cash even when rooms are profitable.

For decoration, lobby/floor finishes and transport, use [[:Category:Architecture]] and [[:Category:Transports]]; they are outside these functional-room tables.
