How to Use Industry Buildings

Used to Refine Raw Materials

The main purpose of industry buildings is to refine specific raw materials into useable industrial products in the settlement. The buildings process products from Iron Ore to Flax which results in the creation of Iron Slabs and Linen respectively.

Some Needs Fuel to Operate

Some industry buildings, especially those that need heat to operate, require fuel to operate. Make sure to know which of these are and ensure that you have enough fuel resources in your settlement's storage.

Workers Are Needed to Operate

To process goods, industry buildings need workers to operate. Take note of the worker slots for the specific building and make sure they are operating at maximum efficiency by filling all those slots with workers.
