Light industrial areas

Light industry converts ore into goods. The conversion becomes more efficient if steel is also available. Power increases the output further still. Windmills do not provide power for these areas.

As a rule of thumb, ignoring the above, the output of a light industrial area is mainly dependent on the amount of raw materials, including jobs, that it can receive, and also the amount of goods that can be taken away.

These areas connect directly to transport to exchange ore, steel and goods. They may need a market to supply jobs.

These areas connect to transport only to the top left hand corner, as shown. Transport will curve in when it is connected.
