How to move rooms in Fallout Shelter

The location of your rooms in Fallout Shelter is pretty important - and when you have 200 citizens inside your underground city, an incorrectly placed room can become real trouble for you. Read this guide and you will find out how to move rooms in Fallout Shelter.

HOW TO MOVE ROOMS IN FALLOUT SHELTER

Even though the function to move rooms would save a significant amount of players’ time, this system is still unavailable in Fallout Shelter. Perhaps developers might add it in the future, but at the moment of writing, only a complex way to move rooms is available in this video game.

To move the room, you need to delete it. You should enter this room and open the menu to demolish a room. Here, you will see the red button “Destroy.” Click on it, and your room in Fallout Shelter will be destroyed.

After you destroy the room, you should build it again, which is costly. So, you should remember that an incorrectly built room is not a mistake that you can correct for free. Continue reading the guide to learn various other aspects you need to know to correctly move rooms in Fallout Shelter.

  • You should remove all dwellers assigned to the room to destroy it. Using the “Destroy” button is impossible when somebody lives inside the room. Therefore, you should move your citizens to other rooms or ask them to leave the city.
  • You have to ensure that all rooms will remain accessible after you destroy the room. It means that, in most cases, you can ruin rooms only on the horizontal edges of your city. And if you want to destroy a room at the centre, you should also demolish all rooms in its way. It will take not only a lot of time but resources as well.

HOW TO MOVE LIVING QUARTERS IN FALLOUT SHELTER

Another aspect that is worth special attention is living quarters. Living quarters are unique rooms that increase the maximum amount of dwellers you can have in the city, and you can't destroy them if your current number of dwellers exceeds the maximum capacity after doing so.

You should build a new Living Quarter before destroying an old one. If you have a maximum of 200 dwellers, it is impossible to fix this problem by eliminating a Living Quarter. In such cases, you should evict the citizens from your Vault, but doing so will waste a lot of your resources. So, it would be best not to destroy Living Quarters in such complex cases.

In conclusion, moving rooms in Fallout Shelter is a pretty challenging task. It requires time and resources, which creates significant problems for your in-game economy. Here's hoping that the developers will find a fix for this, but for now, you'll have to trudge through the above to move a room.
