Automated Production

Automated Production

Automated production is how a base earns its keep. Set the chains, assign the workers, and the cats accumulate themselves.

Production chains turn raw ore and crops into goods and money while your squad does something else.

Overview

Production chains link raw materials to finished goods — ore to iron plates, hemp to hashish, crops to food, iron and fabrics to armour and weapons.

Designing A Chain

A good chain places storage between each step so machines never idle waiting on input. Map raw input to final output and stock every link.

Assigning Workers

Assign characters to machines and let them run jobs continuously. Higher relevant skills speed output and train the workers as a bonus.

Choosing What To Make

Pick products with strong margins and a reliable buyer — armour and weapons for high value, food for self-sufficiency, hashish for grey-market profit.
