How to Connect Buildings to Roads

Link Road Connection Points to Roads

Road Connection Points are the buildings' indicators for road connection, displayed by a yellow circle icon. Make sure to connect every building's connection point to a road.

We recommend enabling Snap to Road while constructing and relocating buildings.

How to Relocate Buildings

Road Connection Point is White if Connected

Before placing down a building for construction, you can check if a building will successfully connect to the road. If the Road Connection Point intersecting the road turns white, the building will be connected to the road after construction.

Check Advanced Tab for Current Buildings

For currently placed buildings, you can check if it is connected to a road by heading to its Advanced Tab.
