Raw materials and production of food and weapons

Hello everyone

In today's article I write about raw materials and the production of food and weapons

Raw materials

Raw materials are materials that are used to manufacture food and weapons.

Raw materials are placed in some specific regions through the world. Raw material regions give bonuses to the companies in the country. Only regions that have a transport route to capital will be taken into consideration. Isolated regions will no longer provide any bonus. Every different food resource (see the table above) country owns gives +20% bonus to all food and Food raw material companies located in that country. Same goes for weapons: every different weapon resource country owns gives +20% bonus to all weapon and Weapon raw material companies located in that country.

Example: Country has 2 grain, deer, fruits, oil and rubber. Food companies will get +60% bonus (grain, deer, fruits) and weapon companies +40% bonus (oil, rubber).

In order the bonus to be effective there need to be a transport route through your country's regions to your capital. The route means that for the bonus to be effective, the region where the resource is found needs to be connected through regions of your country to your capital.

Note: If a region doesn't have a transport route to capital, there will be a notice in society page and they won't show in the resources section of the economy page.

From this table you can see the required amount of raw materials when you work in different quality companies with different kinds of resource bonuses.

Example: You work in Q4 weapon company and the resource bonus is 60%. You need 640 units of weapon raw material to create the 16 weapons.

Productivity

The amount of products you create when you work is depending from the company type and resource bonuses of your country citizenship.

Working in Grain, Fruits, Fish, Cattle or Deer company will produce Food raw materials.
Working in Iron, Oil, Aluminum, Saltpeter or Rubber company will produce Weapon raw materials.
