Stations (Building)

This article is considered accurate for the current version (U51-600112).

Stations are buildings at which Duplicants can Research, make or use Clothes, operate Rooms or (de)specialize. All station buildings require continous operation by a Duplicant, however there are numerous other such buildings in the Food, Refinement, Plumbing, Furniture and Rocketry categories.
