how ot increase heat?

[smammered]

so confused here. More oil = more heat or what? wtf. back in the frost punk 1 days i had to make heating towers.

Yes, the more fuel you have at your disposal, the more heat you can produce. You can produce any amount of heat, provided you have enough fuel. Use heating hubs and other methods, such as building food and housing districts next to each other, or extraction, industrial and logicstics districts to each other, to reduce their heat, if they share 3 neighboring hexes each.

if the heat from the generator isn't enough to sufficiently heat the buildings, they will take the coal they need themselves, which is where you see the massive increase in coal cost. If you don't want that to happen, build heater hubs that use supplies instead.

If you look at your production areas, you'll notice that each one has a heat pylon by default. Basically, the devs just shortcut this since 99% of people chose the pylon option anyways in FP2.

But of course, the minority of vocal people are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about that too.

Well.. I am also confused too

it is also confusing that there is no way to switch fuel source. And if you upgrade your central heating tower, it permanently switch to oil no going back to coal. And only when you reach level 3 you "might" be able to switch fuel sources. But by that time, your city already a corpse.

It is not a nice flow, as we do not get to understand our tools, everything is very confusing. And every confusion I need to search for answer on guides online. I do not want the game to be too easy, but I really do not understand how the game work.

in frostpunk 1, if your colony fail, you actually get to learn how things work. But in Frostpunk 2, all you get is more confusion.

Adaptation is the one that lets you use all fuel sorces, Progress only lets you use oil, but much more efficiently. However, you can also turn coal into oil, but not steam obviously.

I do wish we had steam conversion techs.

But yes Adaptation is overall the best choice if you're not going to power into oil focused economics.

play with fire, you'll get burned

should've picked the green party with their sustainable plan and infinite resource outposts

If you took the oil only generators, there is a tech for coal liquification.
