Butcher spot
Butcher spot
A place for butchering animals. Due to the lack of equipment, butchering here yields only 70% of the meat and leather of each creature.

The butcher spot is a Production site used by cooks to butcher animals and humans into meat and leather without needing to construct a butcher table, at the cost of a 30% loss in return.
Acquisition[edit]
Butcher spots do not require a colonist to construct or deconstruct, nor is there a cost, build time, or skill requirements for placing them. Instead, they are simply selected from the menu and placed directly by the player.
Summary[edit]
This section is a stub. You can help RimWorld Wiki by expanding it. Reason: This section is included in the Butchery project - there are a number of factors that are in need of verification and potentially addition to this section. See that page for details. |
The butcher spot offers only 70% efficiency compared to the butcher table. This means that 30% of the meat and leather will be lost in the butchering process compared to the return from the table.
It has no cleanliness penalty, unlike the table.
Butchering requires a fresh (not rotten) corpse of an animal or human. Butchering requires 450 ticks (7.5 secs) of work, modified by the butchery speed of the cook and up to two nearby tool cabinets, and yielding a return in meat and leather modified by:
- The base yields of the animal
- The butchery efficiency of the cook
- The maturity stage of the animal.[Detail needed]
- A 66% multiplier for damaged corpses i.e. any animal not tamed and then cleanly slaughtered. [Fact Check]
- A percentage multiplier for lost body parts.
- A 70% multiplier for being a butcher spot instead of a table.

Human corpses[edit]
Butchering a human inflicts a non-stacking 6-day −6 mood penalty for all colonists, prisoners, and slaves, as well an additional 6-day −6 for the butcher. The good news is that the colony-wide penalty only stacks once, but the penalty for the butcher can stack 10(!) times with a 0.75 stacking multiplier. Pawns with any of the Psychopath, Bloodlust, or Cannibal traits ignore both penalties, so if you are going this direction it would pay to train one as a back-up cook to get the most out of each corpse.

Analysis[edit]

Useful for when resources are tight, such as on sea ice, or when you don't want to dedicate the time to build a butcher table, such as on caravan and event maps.
