How It Works

By default, transport and construction priorities are determined by the order set in the Prioritising Panels.

However, you can also prioritise a single building over all others by hitting the Prioritise button at the bottom of each building panel.

Once prioritised, a pink star will appear above the building and it will appear at the top of the demand list for all resources that it is trying to source. This includes: Construction, Production, Research, Trade, Storage, Boat Construction, and Upgrade.


For example, if you have a Level 1 Watchtower that you wish to build as quickly as possible then Prioritising your Watchtower will mean it receives all available Logs produced ahead of any other buildings that may also currently need Logs.

It is important to note that you are able to set one Priority building per building type.

Hotkeys

Holding P + click on a building.

TOP TIP: Use Priority if you need to build your Watchtowers as quickly as possible as you may often have multiple demands for your logs.
