- -Minimum solution:
- -Wheat Field is self-synergizing and Wheat has to be kept minimized, do NOT place them next to each other!
- -required ratio: 3 Wheat Fields to 1 Bakery
- -3x Wheat Field 1x Bakery, to start with
- Bread 4-0 Wheat 6-6... Consumer 0-2 Fertilizer 0-3 Greenhouse Gas 6-0(-0) Groundwater 0-3 Labor 0-7 Money 4-0 Organic Waste 1-0
- -1x Small Apt 2x Corner Apt, solve for Labor while prepping Organic Waste
- Bread 4-0 Wheat 6-6... Consumer 10-2 Electricity 0-3 Fertilizer 0-3 Fresh Air 0-3 Greenhouse Gas 6-0(-0) Greywater 4-0 Groundwater 0-3 Labor 7-7 Leisure 0-5 Money 4-0 Organic Waste 6-0 Water 0-3
- -1x Anaerobic Digestor for Fertilizer
- Bread 4-0 Wheat 6-6... Consumer 10-2 Electricity 0-3 Fertilizer 4-3 Fresh Air 0-3 Greenhouse Gas 6-0(-0) Greywater 4-0 Groundwater 0-3 Labor 7-7 Leisure 0-5 Money 4-0 Organic Waste 6-6 Water 0-6
- -3x Ash Tree 2x Sprinklers 1x Water Tower 2x Windmill, solve all remaining needs
- Bread 4-0 Wheat 6-6... Consumer 10-2 Electricity 4-4 Fertilizer 4-3 Fresh Air 3-3 Greenhouse Gas 6-0(-0) Greywater 4-0 Groundwater 6-6 Labor 7-7 Leisure 6-5 Money 4-4 Organic Waste 6-6 Water 8-8
- -everything in balance, 4 excess Bread per cycle, Wheat trend zero
- Final tally: 1x Anaerobic Digestor 1x Water Tower 2x Windmill 2x Sprinklers 3x Wheat Field 1x Bakery 2x Corner Apt 1x Small Apt 3x Ash Tree, 16 blocks total
- Build order: 2x Windmill 1x Water Tower 2x Sprinklers 3x Ash Tree 2x Corner Apt 1x Small Apt 1x Anaerobic Digestor 3x Wheat Field 1x Bakery
- MINIMAL SOLUTION VALIDATED
- -Maximum solution:
- -Wheat Field is self-synergizing and Wheat has to be kept minimized, do NOT place them next to each other!
- -required ratio: 3 Wheat Fields to 1 Bakery
- -hard cap of 64 Windmills due to verticality, and let's also stick in 9 Elevators in there
- -define a "production unit" as 1x Anaerobic Digestor 1x Water Tower 2x Sprinklers 3x Wheat Field 1x Bakery 2x Corner Apt 1x Small Apt 3x Ash Tree
- -4 production units can fit on a level, we have 9 levels to work with... a 2x4 hole will be left in the middle for the elevators, solar panels, and an extra prod unit or two maybe
- -64x Windmill 9x Elevator 36x prod units, to start with, and also 18x Solar Panel
- Bread 144-0 Wheat 216-216... Consumer 360-72 Electricity 146-145.8 Fertilizer 144-108 Fresh Air 108-108 Groundwater 216-216 Labor 252-252 Leisure 216-180 Money 144-145 Organic Waste 216-216 Water 288-288
- -we're at 595/640 block budget, there's still room plus we need a bit more money
- -alright let's just add 2 more prod units then fill the remainder with solar panels
- Bread 152-0 Wheat 228-228... Consumer 380-76 Electricity 163-153.8 Fertilizer 152-114 Fresh Air 114-114 Groundwater 228-228 Labor 266-266 Leisure 228-190 Money 152-149 Organic Waste 228-228 Water 304-304
- Final block total: 9x Elevator 38x Anaerobic Digestor 35x Solar Panel 38x Water Tower 64x Windmill 76x Sprinklers 114x Wheat Field 38x Bakery 76x Corner Apt 38x Small Apt 114x Ash Tree
- Build order:
- -in the middle make a stack of 9 Elevators and 27 Solar Panels
- -now start making 4x the template from the minimum hood, minus the windmills. ensure stackables (apartments and bakery) are placed so there's full support to upper levels
- -as electricity runs out, plop Windmills on floor 10
- -make those stacks for floors 1-9, you should have a 1x4 empty space in the middle
- -make two more of that template but vertically and with solar instead of wind, and the 9th floor gets solar in that stripe
- MAXIMAL SOLUTION VALIDATED, just be super careful not to build too fast! one floor at a time because there REALLY isn't much excess of anything! or build up one of the quarter-columns at a time
