Warehouse Design

[Coyote]

I think the warehouse could use a bit of a rework. Upgrading from the barn and it doesn’t seem like a huge step up. There are 3 staircases to get up to the second level, 2 of which are in the way of what could be very useful space.

As it is. The layout a friend and I have is quite packed in this space

7 Mixing station MK2 lined up in a U shape
16 pots in the back area growing cocoa
4 cauldrons
2 lab ovens
2 packaging stations and a plethora of shelves

Sure we could’ve cut back on the pots, honestly not the problem, that area is fine.
The main floor for production and mixing is taken up by those stations, and staircases that make getting a good layout kinda rough.

Can’t get multiple lines for different strains. Just one line.
Can only have 10 employees at a location, maybe I’m overlooking how to assign employees efficiently. I have each stations output how we would want, yet we still need like 4 handlers just to make sure stations are supplied, drugs packaged, chemists to get all cauldrons and ovens occupied.

Hope to see some improvement to employees overall. Would like to route more routes to my handlers, up to like 8 routes per handler

I have 2 different 4 step mixes plus production in there (was 6 chem benches and 6 ovens, now 20 pots/lights). It’s the same room as the barn just a different layout. Feels smaller because of the railings, sure.

I promise there is a way to make 8 mixers + production work

Problem is, I’d like to have 12 employees max at the warehouse, and get rid of the staircases. Sure you can do things differently or efficiently.

I don’t wanna be punished for not finding the best strains or mixes for less of a layout. I’ve got a layout, it’s not egregious, the warehouse just is a disappointing upgrade from the barn. Factoring in the 50k price tag. It feels only marginally bigger

currently have a setup with 8 mixers, 4 cauldrons/ovens and 24 pots (6 for each cauldron). each mixer has its own large shelf. upper level is beds only. its a bit crammed but im planning to scale down a bit since its to much anyways.

It should definitely allow more employees. I'm hoping a future update will give us a better way to mix drugs that doesn't take up so much space.

I’ll preface by saying it’s not terrible. I’ve only just gotten the warehouse and literally just got employees and stations all set up.

My first impressions of the warehouse and con to me are to remove the left and right staircases to give us more area to work with, and I’d be pretty happy.

I just feel like each location has had a meaningful upgrade. Going from motel to Chinese shop was good, going to the bungalow was even better, bungalow to the barn was huge. Going to the warehouse I was like, oh this is a cool backroom, I can grow or maybe put some storage here.
But it feels too similar to the barn in size overall. Thought it would’ve been much larger. But eh that’s fine.

Just some feedback / impressions
