Dwarves would occasionally go '''on break'''. Breaks lasted about 14 days and dwarves tended to take breaks every few months. Dwarves on break would behave as though they were jobless, and would wander between their [[bedroom]]s and public meeting places. There was no way to force a dwarf to work while on break, therefore the best use of this time was reducing the stress of said dwarf. A high [[quality]] [[dining room]], [[statue|statuary]], [[zoo]], or [[Activity zone#Meeting Area|meeting area]] would help in this respect. If a dwarf could be confined there by [[burrow]]s, a [[danger room]] could still be used while the dwarf was on break, making this another productive use of the time spent on break.

Dwarves no longer go on breaks as of [[DF2014:Release information/0.42.01|version 0.42.01]], with them being replaced by the [[need]] system.

Dwarves no longer go on breaks as of [[DF2014:Release information/0.42.01|version 0.42.01]]. They now visit areas like [[tavern]]s, [[Library|libraries]] and [[temple]]s after finishing their work in order to socialize with others, and will generally return to work immediately when new things are given for them to do.
