Inns

Inn Establishment
  1. Sleeping

    The character can sleep up to 12 hours at the inn. The room base price does not depend on the rent duration.

    While sleeping:

    • Fatigue rate is null.
    • Thirst rate is halved.
    • Hunger rate is halved.
    • Every hour:
      • Fatigue is decreased by 1.
      • If the sleep for this hour is restful (see below), fatigue is decreased by an extra value of 6 and hit points are increased by 6.

    The probability to have a restful sleep increases with the room quality.

    According to the above rule, the average fatigue recovered per hour while sleeping is:

    • average fatigue recovered per hour = 1 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep

    The optimal sleeping time is reached when the daily recover reaches the daily fatigue:

    • daily recover = daily fatigue

    Which gives with a time unit of 1 hour:

    • average fatigue recovered per hour * number of hours asleep = fatigue increased per hour * number of hours awake

    The character becomes tired at a rate of 2 every hour:

    • average fatigue recovered per hour * number of hours asleep = 2 * number of hours awake

    By replacing the average fatigue recovered per hour, it becomes:

    • (1 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep) * number of hours asleep = 2 * number of hours awake

    The number of hours the character is awake is equal to 24 minus the number of hours asleep:

    • (1 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep) * number of hours asleep = 2 * (24 - number of hours asleep)

    The optimal sleeping time is then deduced:

    • (1 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep) * number of hours asleep + 2 * number of hours asleep = 48
    • number of hours asleep * (3 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep) = 48
    • number of hours asleep = 48 / (3 + 6 * probability for a restful sleep)

    The column 'average needed hours of rest each day' in the following table is the optimal sleeping time.

    Remarks:

    • For example, if the character wants to rest an average of 9 hours per day, he must sleep at least in 'a room with bath'.
    • The cheapest way to stay healthy is to sleep 12 hours in 'a bed with no bath' (base price of 20 coppers).
    • The character can't sleep more than 12 hours in a row, that's why the base price for 'the common area floor' is doubled when calculating the average base cost for each hour awake (average needed hours of rest is > 12, so he must rent the room 2 times). How many hours

    Each inn applies a factor to the room base price:

    Midnight Inn300 %
    Warrior's Retreat75 %
    Royal Resort Inn800 %
  2. Jobs

    Every day, a roll is made for each inn to determine if it offers a job:

    In the case a job is available, a random one is chosen.

    Remarks:

    • The duration of the job is randomly chosen between 3 to 8 hours.
    • The character has to sober up before applying for a job (he must not be Drunk or Very Drunk, but Tipsy is allowed).
    • The game contains unused (bugged?) code where the character alignment is increased by 1 after working (probability of 23.8%).
