 {{:outpost_1:red_light_district.png?nolink |}}The Red Light District (RLD) has its advantages and disadvantages.  It`s an unusual structure, because you can place it on the map yourself, but it can also be spontaneously generated due to a high Crime level.  Although the RLD improves Morale and the Birth Rate, it also draws two units of Luxury items per turn, drawn directly from storage whether or not a Commerical structure exists, for maintaining operation.  If the Crime level remains high, more and more of your Residential units will turn into RLDs.  The only way to control the spread of RLDs is to lower your Luxury production or lower your Crime level by adding Police stations to your colony near the RLDs.   {{:outpost_1:red_light_district.png?nolink |}}The Red Light District (RLD) has its advantages and disadvantages.  It`s an unusual structure, because you can place it on the map yourself, but it can also be spontaneously generated due to a high Crime level.  Although the RLD improves Morale and the Birth Rate, it also draws two units of Luxury items per turn, drawn directly from storage whether or not a Commerical structure exists, for maintaining operation.  If the Crime level remains high, more and more of your Residential units will turn into RLDs.  The only way to control the spread of RLDs is to lower your Luxury production or lower your Crime level by adding Police stations to your colony near the RLDs.
