Dungeon Settlers Mediocre Dining Room - Room Task Checklist
Dungeon Settlers Mediocre Dining Room tasks start with room recognition, not decoration: enclose the space with walls and a usable door, place a Cookery Workshop inside, then open the current Game Guide to confirm the exact size and quality requirement for the Mediocre tier. In the current user-verified run, the first Dining Room objective completed without extra tables or chairs; if your current task asks for them, follow that task display.

FAQ
How do I make a Mediocre Dining Room?
Fully enclose the room, leave a usable door, place a Cookery Workshop inside, and then read the current Game Guide for the Mediocre size, furniture, and quality conditions. Do not add furniture blindly before the room is recognized.
Do I need tables and chairs for the Dining Room task?
The current verified run completed its first Dining Room objective without extra tables or chairs. Your task may use a different tier or build, so add only what the current room requirement displays.
Why is my Dining Room not recognized?
Check the full perimeter, all four corners, the usable door, the Cookery Workshop placement, and the current room size or quality requirement. Fix enclosure and recognition before changing decorations.
What should I do after the room is recognized?
Use the room for the food loop, then check Food & Mood and Treatment Expectation to see whether the dining condition is actually improving the settler’s status.
What is the shortest working setup?
1. Choose a small area that you can completely close. Leave enough room for the Cookery Workshop and a worker path, but do not start with a large decorative hall.
2. Build the full wall perimeter and close every corner. Leave one usable door so settlers can enter and leave; an open edge or blocked doorway can stop recognition before furniture matters.
3. Place one Cookery Workshop inside the enclosed room. The current user-verified first Dining Room objective used this facility, and tables or chairs were not required in that run.
4. Open the Game Guide and check the current Rooms entry for the requested Mediocre tier. Add only the displayed size, quality, or furniture requirement, then wait for the room counter to update.
5. When the task completes, put the room into the settlement food loop and check a settler’s Mood breakdown. A recognized room is the completion signal; a better Mood value is the follow-up signal.
Why is the room task still at 0?
If the counter stays at 0, stop placing more chairs and repair recognition in this order: close the corners, verify the door works, confirm the Cookery Workshop is inside the room rather than beside it, and reopen the current Rooms requirement. Wait for the state to refresh before changing the next condition.
If the room is recognized but the Mediocre objective does not move, the issue is likely the tier requirement rather than the enclosure. Read the task’s displayed size, quality, and facility fields; older room tables can use different names or thresholds.
If the worker cannot use the Cookery Workshop, switch to the Food & Mood and Settlement guides. Room recognition and food production are related but separate checks: one can complete while the other is blocked by research, storage, work priority, or weather.
What should I add after recognition?
Add furniture only when it solves a displayed task or a named Mood problem. In the verified first task, extra tables and chairs were not needed; after v0.4.23, the official notes also say units use tables belonging to a Dining Room when selecting a place to eat, so a recognized room and a usable table may become separate practical checks in a fuller setup.
If the room is meant to offset Treatment Expectation, test the effect after a settler eats or sleeps rather than assuming the label alone changed Mood. If the value does not move, inspect food policy, available meals, room quality, and the current status breakdown.
Current room-task boundary
This page preserves the verified setup path while leaving exact Mediocre numbers open. Update it when a current screenshot or versioned data source confirms dimensions, required table or chair counts, quality thresholds, or tier bonuses. Do not convert a different room tier, Demo guide, or one player report into the current Mediocre rule.

Version note: The Cookery Workshop path and no-extra-furniture observation come from the project’s current playtest evidence. Exact Mediocre room dimensions, furniture counts, quality thresholds, and bonuses remain version-sensitive and are not hard-coded here.
