  57. -Minimum solution:
  58. -Wheat Field is self-synergizing and Wheat has to be kept minimized, do NOT place them next to each other!
  59. -required ratio: 3 Wheat Fields to 1 Bakery
  60. -3x Wheat Field 1x Bakery, to start with
  61. 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
  62. -1x Small Apt 2x Corner Apt, solve for Labor while prepping Organic Waste
  63. 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
  64. -1x Anaerobic Digestor for Fertilizer
  65. 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
  66. -3x Ash Tree 2x Sprinklers 1x Water Tower 2x Windmill, solve all remaining needs
  67. 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
  68. -everything in balance, 4 excess Bread per cycle, Wheat trend zero
  69. 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
  70. 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
  71. MINIMAL SOLUTION VALIDATED
  72.  
  73. -Maximum solution:
  74. -Wheat Field is self-synergizing and Wheat has to be kept minimized, do NOT place them next to each other!
  75. -required ratio: 3 Wheat Fields to 1 Bakery
  76. -hard cap of 64 Windmills due to verticality, and let's also stick in 9 Elevators in there
  77. -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
  78. -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
  79. -64x Windmill 9x Elevator 36x prod units, to start with, and also 18x Solar Panel
  80. 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
  81. -we're at 595/640 block budget, there's still room plus we need a bit more money
  82. -alright let's just add 2 more prod units then fill the remainder with solar panels
  83. 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
  84. 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
  85. Build order:
  86. -in the middle make a stack of 9 Elevators and 27 Solar Panels
  87. -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
  88. -as electricity runs out, plop Windmills on floor 10
  89. -make those stacks for floors 1-9, you should have a 1x4 empty space in the middle
  90. -make two more of that template but vertically and with solar instead of wind, and the 9th floor gets solar in that stripe
  91. 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
