Services Needs
Overview
Services provide bonuses to Resolve. The more Services you provide to your Villagers, the higher their Resolve will go. Viceroys need both a Service Building, and the goods to provide a Service in that building. For example, to provide 
Leisure, a Viceroy needs to build a Tavern and provide 
Ale for the service need to be fulfilled.

Satisfying Services
To satisfy a Service Need, you need:
- A Service Building + A Service Good + 1 Villager in the Service Building.
So, to satisfy the Leisure need, you need a Tavern, some Ale and 1 Villager staffing the Building. The race of the Villager staffing the building does not matter, but some Villagers find Comfort in some Service Buildings, granting them +5 Resolve.
Service Building Blueprints can be purchased from Traders or rewarded for Reputation gain. You can also get a Service Building by repairing a Ruin or cleansing a Haunted Building. Service Goods can be purchased from Traders, found in Abandoned Caches, rewarded from Orders, and manufactured by Viceroys in the settlement.
Controlling Services
On the left, we can see:
- The Specialization or Comfort bonus workers get from working in this Building
- One worker is assigned. This is enough to enable the Service Need.
- Leisure is enabled in this building
Luxury is disabled in this building- We need 3 workers to gain the special effect this building provides. Hovering over this panel will tell you what the effect is.
Service Buildings and Unique Effects
Each Service Building has unique effects when staffed to specification. Services Need do not need to be enabled to gain these effects.
For example, if you built a Monastery, but do not have 
Incense or Ale, the effect (-100 Hostility) will still become active if staffed to specifications.
Effects are as follows:
Academy: +1 Global Resolve for every rebuilt / salvaged Ruin. Retroactive.
Bath House: Villagers leave 30% slower. Global Production rate is 25% faster.
Clan Hall: +100% yield to all Camps except Woodcutters.
Forum: Chance of producing double yields increases by 15%.
Guild House: Traders arrive 50% faster. +1 to Global Resolve for every 75 
Amber worth of goods sold. Retroactive.
Market: Global Carrying capacity increased by 10.
Monastery: -100 Hostility.
Tavern: +3 to Global Resolve.
Tea Doctor: +1 to Global Resolve for every 200 Complex Food eaten. Retroactive.
Temple: -25 Hostility for every 200 seconds of sacrifices in the Hearth. Retroactive.
- To gain the perk a Service Building provides, it needs to be fully staffed.
List of services needs
The service needs of Foxes and Lizards were changed in version 1.4, so this section is now out-of-date. Please consider contributing by updating it!
Each service can satisfy more than one species. Correspondingly, each of the five species require different combinations of the possible services available. The following shows the relationships between service (and the service-related good) and species.
The service building is also listed for convenience. See the next section for a table of buildings that may help you choose your Blueprints.
Service Buildings
Most Service Buildings provide more than one Service. Since many Settlements will get only a few choices of Blueprints for Service Buildings, this table can help you anticipate which will be best for the Species in your Settlement, so that you don't pass them up! See the next section on #Strategy and Special Combinations for some key takeaways from this table.
Strategy and Special Combinations
Based on the Species in your Settlement, there are obvious choices and options to avoid when seeking to provide Services. However, note that if the Building provides an exceptional working bonus for your Settlement's specific needs, then it is always worth considering if you can assign full workers to it.
- No single Service Building can serve all seven Species. This means there is no "always perfect" choice.
- One building serves all but one of the seven Species all by themselves. Additionally, the comfort specialization of this building matches that of the one species not served by this building.
- Six of the nine Buildings serve two Services to five of the Species. With the exception of Lizards, who only have one Service need, and Harpies, there is a way to double-down on every other Species with only one Building:
- The Guild House serves Beavers both
Education and Leisure. - The Tavern also serves Beavers both Luxury and Leisure.
- The Tea Doctor serves Foxes both
Religion and 
Treatment. - The Forum serves Frogs both
Brawling and Luxury. - The Monastery serves Humans both Leisure and Religion.
- The Academy serves Bats both Brawling and Education.
- The Guild House serves Beavers both
