How to Increase Staff and Student Happiness in Two Point Campus

While the strategies for increasing happiness between the two groups differ slightly, many parts of it remain the same. Generally, you want to keep everyone’s Needs high. The following is a list of needs to consider:

• Energy: An individual’s energy is influenced by how long they’ve been working. For campus faculty members, this means working without going on break. To solve this, simply allow your staff more break time! In the case of students, this means little to no access to beds in dorm rooms. While you don’t need a 1:1 ratio for beds to students, make sure you have enough so they can easily sleep without waiting.
• Healthiness: Several factors determine healthiness in both staff and students. Vending machine food, lack of food kiosks, gross traits, and illnesses are some examples of these. The easiest way to increase healthiness is ensuring you have at least a few food and drink kiosks instead of vending machines. While this means you’ll have increased staff wages, the long-term benefits will slowly counter-balance it. Furthermore, ensure plenty of outdoor activities are available for your students! Lastly, once you unlock illnesses, keep your Medical Office queues low and upgrade your Omni-Cure machine.
• Food and Drink: Everyone needs to eat! Keeping your staff and students fed and providing plenty of access to drinks will help keep these needs high.
• Toilet: Make sure your staff and students have easy access to bathrooms! If an individual goes too long without using the restroom, they’ll receive the “bursting” debuff and automatically sprint towards the room.
• Hygiene: Factors influencing hygiene in staff and students include lack of hand sanitizers, little to no access to showers, and an unpleasant, litter-filled environment. Keep hygiene high by building plenty of showers, placing numerous hand sanitizers throughout your campus, and hiring enough janitors to clean consistently.
• Entertainment: No one likes being bored! Place arcade machines, telephones, and bookcases around to entertain your staff and students. Once you unlock events, start hosting film nights and SU parties to boost happiness and entertainment.
• Environment: Environment includes factors like attractiveness, temperature, and room prestige. Make your campus, both interior and exterior, look attractive! If it is too hot or cold in certain areas, regulate the temperature to keep everyone comfortable.
