A guildhall is a location where dwarves can demonstrate skills to each other, satisfying many social needs.
Once a single profession has sufficient members (10 by default) within your fortress, they can form a guild and petition for a properly-furnished guildhall. A guildhall by default requires 2,000☼ room value, and a Grand Guildhall needing 10,000☼ to be considered established. Both population and item value requirements can be modified in the difficulty settings.
Creation[edit]
Guildhalls are designated from any meeting area zone. Though they are linked to guild societies, established guilds are not necessary to organize demonstrations.
Upon creation (z->Meeting Area->Assign Location->New Guildhall), the new guildhall will be given a random name, possibly based on the relevant profession. For example, a ranger's guildhall could be named "The Grove of Deer". It can be renamed from the Location information screen after clicking on it in the Zone menu. Once a guildhall is set up, you can see its room value on the locations screen, which also tells you if the guildhall is up to the desired standard - when it says Agreed to build guildhall the requirements are not yet met.
Uses[edit]
Guildhalls provide socialization and communal skill learning via demonstrations. As long as two dwarves are idling in a guildhall, a dwarf trained in a relevant skill can demonstrate it to the other, and highly-skilled dwarves lead demonstrations more frequently - the same activity that soldiers do when training in their barracks.
Visitors to your fortress can also hold demonstrations in the guildhall when the hall is set as All visitors welcome in the locations menu. This can be a nice boost to your dwarves, especially if the visitor holding the demonstration has a relevant legendary skill.
As dwarves don't normally seek out guildhalls, stockpiling alcohol and building workshops in a guildhall will make spending idle time more appealing and result in more demonstrations.
As even halls without established guilds will have demonstrations given to idlers, you can build halls for the professions that you need. For example, instead of waiting for weaponsmiths to immigrate, make a hall for weaponsmiths or metalworkers in general. Demonstrations will be given, unused idle hands will be trained in the professions you need, and soon enough, a guild will form.
Children can participate in guildhall demonstrations, allowing them to learn skills before they become adults. Depending on what they learn, this can provide more valuable options if they enter a strange mood beyond common crafts.
Thoughts[edit]
A demonstration will satisfy the "learn something", "practice a skill" (though it does not raise their own skills), and "help somebody" needs for the teacher. Emotionally, the participants feel interest, wonder and satisfaction for participating in a demonstration.
If a guild's petition has been accepted, but has not been built after one year, the agreement to establish a guildhall will be abandoned. Should you deny or ignore the petition, the dwarves involved will get an unhappy thought about it.
Synergy[edit]
A doctor's hall can be assigned to the same meeting area as a hospital - this has the added benefit that you will always have medically trained personnel in your hospitals, rather than having to train off of wounds.
A burrow can be designed such that any dwarf assigned to it can act as a full-time teacher. The burrow must refuse outside materials for workshops, and must not include any other meeting areas. To keep the teacher in the right place, add a bedroom and a dining hall stocked with amenities.
Profession Guildhalls[edit]
Profession guild halls cover generalized skill sets, though they are listed alongside the other guilds and not marked differently. These are based on the category that the skills are from. For example Ranger covers Ambusher, Animal caretaker, Animal dissector, Animal trainer, and Trapper.
*: These skills do not have an associated profession.
World[edit]
Guilds, a type of entity, form in civilizations that value craftmanship and cooperation, and will build guildhalls in cities. All dwarven civilizations are able to form guildhalls, as can some humans. A guild with a guildhall was observed establishing connections with other guilds, but with an as-of-yet unknown effect.
You can visit the guildhalls of guilds in adventurer mode. E.g: In human towns, these buildings consist of three levels: The lowest, a storage level filled with bins, the second filled with chairs and tables, and the third with some chairs and tables, but mostly display furniture. Guilds will fill the display furniture with quality items of the type the guild specializes in.
Bugs[edit]
- It is possible for guildhall agreements to be both satisfied and abandoned at once. This happens when some sort of work or modification is being done on the guildhall at the very moment the timer of the agreement has expired. This can also cause citizens related to that guild to have a negative and positive thought at once.
