How to unlock the Marvin the Martian achievement in Surviving Mars - Definitive Guide
Overall, this is a pretty easy achievement if you know what you're doing and if you have the resources to sustain a dome.
Even easier if you add services that maintain comfort and sanity.
To ensure that your colonists reproduce, you’ll need to provide them a Dome with a minimum level of comfort and have at least a couple of opposite sex. Without an Infirmary, the minimum Comfort level required for birth is 70, whereas with a staffed Infirmary the required Comfort level is reduced to 55. Higher Comfort levels will contribute more to a hidden birth meter each Sol whereupon a new child will be born once the birth meter is filled. Comfort levels can be increased by providing amenities through construction of specific in-dome buildings and satisfying the interests of the population – Dining, Social, Relaxation, Luxury, Gaming, Shopping, Relaxation, Food etc. Each in-dome building will display the comfort level that the building is providing, for example Smart Homes provide 70 Comfort compared to Apartments which provide 30 Comfort. Building upgrades can be unlocked through research to boost the Comfort level further.
