Guide

The Construction Ship Port is a key factory building that serves as the central hub for deploying and managing construction ships. Its primary function is to automate large-scale construction projects, significantly reducing manual effort and streamlining the expansion of your factory.

By coordinating the movement and tasks of construction ships, the port plays a crucial role in both expanding and maintaining your factory's infrastructure. This automation is essential for scaling up operations efficiently.

Players may encounter friction when construction ships are not assigned or when projects fail to start, even if all visible prerequisites appear to be met. These situations often lead to uncertainty about missing steps or required configurations, making it important to understand the port’s operational requirements.

Tips

• If construction ships are not being assigned, double-check that all prerequisite infrastructure, such as radio towers and scanners, are properly set up and connected.
• Review the configuration settings on the Construction Ship Port to ensure all necessary steps have been completed for assignment and deployment.
• When construction does not begin as expected, systematically verify each dependency and connection in your setup to identify any missing or misconfigured components.
• Stay informed about recent game updates, as changes may affect how ship assignment and port behavior function.

FAQ

What specific conditions or configurations are required to ensure construction ships are assigned and construction begins as intended?

Construction ships will only be assigned if the Construction Ship Port is fully powered, properly connected to the required infrastructure (such as radio towers and scanners), and has available construction ships docked. Additionally, ensure that the target construction area is within operational range and that there are no blocked paths or missing permissions.

Are there undocumented dependencies or steps that players commonly overlook when setting up construction ship ports?

Players often overlook the need for a complete network of Radio Towers and Scanners to cover the intended construction area. Another common issue is forgetting to assign construction ships to the port or missing required permissions for the port to operate in certain zones.
