'''Normal Rations''' is the default [[Choices|ration policy]] for all settlements. It applies no modifiers to {{Icon|Food}} consumption, maintaining baseline food usage. It is one of three mutually exclusive ration policies, alongside [[Low Rations]] and [[Lavish Rations]].

Normal Rations applies no food consumption modifiers. Housing buildings consume {{Icon|Food}} at their standard rates.

== Details ==
Normal Rations is the '''default''' ration policy for all settlements. It is active from the start and does not need to be manually selected. Switching back to Normal Rations from [[Low Rations]] or [[Lavish Rations]] requires a '''1-day lock''' period.

Normal Rations has no resource cost to enact and is mutually exclusive with [[Low Rations]] and [[Lavish Rations]]. Only one ration policy can be active at any time.

== Strategy ==
Normal Rations is the baseline option with no trade-offs. It is the right choice for settlements with a stable {{Icon|Food}} supply that neither need to conserve food ([[Low Rations]]) nor want to spend extra food for a happiness boost ([[Lavish Rations]]).

The 1-day lock period makes switching between ration policies relatively quick compared to trade focus policies (14 days). Players can freely adapt their ration policy to changing food supply conditions without long commitments.
