No, it doesn't need to be in a room, but have you calculated in the 25% loss of barrels on crafts? If you craft lower amounts of barrels that doesn't hit due to rounding, but on bigger projects it kicks in.

Originally posted by Esin: Confirmed it is using the same modifications as the table. Ex, modern upgrade 2 in table at 25% resource reduction reduced petroleum used down to 3, and barrels returned down to 2.25. One interesting caveat to this though is, if you only queue up 1 recipe with the MU2 slotted, it will use 3 petroleum, and return 3 barrels. Which does not make much sense as rounding 2.25 should be down to 2, unless the game just rounds up by default? (given that 2.25 would then round up to 3, but at 2 would also round 4.5 up to 5)

Again, would be nice to know if this is intentional, or a bug. The tooltip for the barrels does not relfect that it is being modified by the upgrades. Although, it does show the talent for lavish workspace in it's tooltip.
Yes, this works as intended.
