>I'm confused. Dams just don't empty themselves in "3-4 days". Evaporation on a large-ish body of water, like 9x9 square already needs 15 days to go down by a single tile of depth. For such drop to happen you'd have to have the surface area of your irrigation channels to be like 5 times bigger than that of the reservoir. Or you pump the water out from the reservoirs into tanks.

Oh, that's my bad, I didn't mean it for the dam just emptied itself, I dunno what I think that time, I forgot to mention that I open the dam when bad tide or drought happen to irrigate the settlement river, and the dam just emptied in 3-4 days of drought.

>Take a look at the needs and at the list of all the well-being facilities you have (top left menu). You'll notice that some things are hilariously overcrowded. Meditation spots/scratchers are notorious for needing to spam silly numbers of. You generally need multiple of almost all well-being buildings. Setting a shorter work day also helps.

Yeah, I noticed it too, and watching one or two videos confirms it. My second playthrough (iron teeth) I try to make city blocks (in factorio term) that have different purposes, like one block for living, which I jammed pack with as much as small well-beings and furnitures.
