Deathrest casket

The deathrest casket is a building added by the Biotech DLC that allows pawns with the deathrest gene to both deathrest faster and to link to other buildings for additional benefits.

Acquisition[edit]

Deathrest caskets can be constructed once the Deathrest research project has been completed. They require 100 Steel, 3 Components and 2,500 ticks (41.67 secs) of work.

Summary[edit]

Using a powered deathrest casket multiplies the rate at which deathrest progresses by ×1.1, reducing the minimum time to avoid Deathrest Interrupted. This value is not affected by the quality of the casket. The bonuses from the casket and up to two deathrest accelerators stack multiplicatively. The casket itself uses 0 W of power, but still must be connected to an electrical grid to function. Once rested in, the casket permanently binds to its user, though deconstructing it has no penalty.

While resting in a deathrest casket, colonists heal by an additional 4 HP per day, the same as all non-hospital beds -- see injury for details. Caskets can be walked over, although at a slower rate.

A casket can connect to other deathrest buildings, much like a bed and dresser.

Analysis[edit]

Deathrest caskets are a fairly large investment in the early-game, especially for The Sanguophage scenario. For reference, they cost 1 component more than a wood-fired generator
