Why does it take 60 turns to build a monument ?

[rockstar]

Noob question, just started playing and was wondering when I settle to a new location why does it take forever ? Also does gaining production % raise the speed of productions being made ?

Because Civ 6 is crap and all production times are horribly imbalanced.

Aw man I thought there was a solution like I made a new city in the wrong area lol

If you gain production the time to build things is decreased

[Johnny Wishbone]

It shouldn't be taking 60 turns lol

It's based on your production, which is effected by population and tile yields, as well as buildings.

Build near hills. Build mines. Production% isn't going to get you nearly as much as flat production bonuses early in the game.

Also on the new cities I always focus on production until it increases a few population, unless I'm going tottally broke and need whatever I can get, even if at first they don't product much if any gold.

Build on a hill if you can - higher initial production.

I assume that's standard speed

Well it's best to spam cities as early as possible because District costs also increase with the amount of techs and civics you have.
To speed up that initial production either buy a builder or send a builder from another city to improve mines farms or chop trees.
You could also transfer traders to new cities for better food and production

The Reason why it takes 60 turns is because your city has low production output. the ways to increase this is find tiles on the map that increase production, hills are perfect for this as they increase production so if you have a hill make sure you have one of your citizen slots occuping this hill so you can build your monument. Go to your citizen slot (in your city next to the buy a tile button) and pick the citizen slots that boost production, a tile with two production markers are better than one. Last thing you can do is build an industrial district in that city, this boosts your production capabilites of your cities to accelerate your production of units, monuments and wonders.

think twice before you drop a city in a location with 0 prodcution. if it takes 60 turns to build a monument, that means the city probably only has 1 point of production (city center) - assuming standard speed (monument costs 60 points on standard).

found cities in locations with some nearby hills and/or forests and make sure your 1st citizen actually works a tile with production and not some stupid flat grasslands or whatever. if there are only tiles with prodcution in the 2nd or 3rd ring, found those cities later when you can afford to buy up some useful tiles right away.

if there are no production tiles at all in range, the city will never be any good. only found it if it adds access to an important resource or if its position will give you a strategic advantage.

maybe overly harsh, but I agree that Production is unbalanced, especially compared to Research
