How to Scale Housing Capacity and Workplace Staffing

Building High-Density Residential Apartments

Managing population growth no longer requires sprawling footprints of individual single-family houses.

• Upgrade residential buildings: Each house tier holds more beds per building level, allowing you to design compact apartment complexes.
• Add extra beds: Place additional beds inside upgraded houses to accommodate multiple citizens under one roof.
• Consolidate your footprint: Use multi-bed apartment houses near industrial centers so citizens spawn and sleep closer to their assigned jobs.

Staffing Industrial Workplaces

Industrial buildings can expand their output by taking on larger crews as they grow.

• Expand courier and smelter staffing: Upgrade smelters and courier huts to unlock extra worker slots per building level.
• Furnace management: In upgraded smelters, hire extra workers. The smelters manage multiple furnaces at the same time, automatically sharing smelting jobs among the entire hired crew to prevent bottlenecks.
• Resource collection: Keep lumberjacks active near tall trees; their logic automatically sweeps all dropped wood and saplings from tall leaf canopies. For farming, workers safely harvest honey without angering bees, rotate field plantings, and handle modded crops.
