Game tip

  • Directly next to it, coal mine (+10 %), sand pit (+20 %) pays off: the neighbourhood bonus shortens the production cycle.
  • Keep a stable supply from coal mine, sand pit. A storehouse nearby shortens transport routes.
  • The produced good glass is processed further or traded in the View production chain.
