Early on, you are bottlenecked by construction time and power. Logistics modules reduce the time to build new modules, accelerating your growth. Solar panels are the most space-efficient power source for the station itself. Habitation modules unlock the next population tier (5k, then 10k) faster.
: Modules (like solar panels or greenhouses) affect workshops based on the length of the connecting route. Every step further away reduces the module's effect and temperature contribution by 2. Expertise Limit anno 2205 orbital station best layout
Never place four Tier 3 Labs in a square. They will overheat instantly, rendering them useless regardless of how many workshops you add. Early on, you are bottlenecked by construction time
This layout focuses on high-value "free" resources and massive production boosts for the most complex Earth-based supply chains. 🏛️ The "Meta" Layout: 4/3/3/1/1 Habitation modules unlock the next population tier (5k,
