Do I need to "make dormitory" on every bed in an area?

When making a communal dormitory, does it suffice to make a bedroom off a single bed that overlaps all the other beds, or do I need to do it for every single bed?


Solution 1:

No. A single bed to anchor the room and mark it a Dormitory will assign all beds to that dormitory.

If you assigned a dormitory to each individual bed you'd get a dozen individual overlapping dorms. Probably not what you want as they'd divide the quality value.
