Tv in hospital not working?

[AnDelusionalDog]

So I just searched and found tons of people saying as long as your hospital beds are facing the tv and within the viewing radius that shows when placing the tv the patients will watch the tv and gain joy.

Mine however do not. I have had the tv for quite some time and it is definitely facing the beds and beds facing it and no one has gained any joy. and yes it has power.

So any ideas? is it bugged in this build because im not positive if I tried it last build or not.

Thanks for any input.

Your pawns will only use the TV when they are awake (and not otherwise occupied, like with getting treated), not when they are sleeping

The placement can be a little dodgy at times. Both the TV and the beds have to be in the right position. Basically, the foot end of the bed must be closer to the TV and the TV has to be placed right as well (with the screen facing the bed).

If you have done all of this, check for mod conflicts. If you still have issues, report in the bug subforum.

Also, pawns may decide not to watch TV if their joy bar is already high. Last but not least, repeating the same joy activity over and over in a short period builds resistance, which makes it less effective.
