how to build structures faster?

[TTVChosenRodent]

so my peasants have to go back and forth between my islands just to bring resources to build upon. there must be a better way. i just started playing today. any tips?

Build storage facilities close with gatherers near it so they can stockpile stone and wood near where you want to build to speed things up.

This, and

Don't build several things at once.

Idle workers should be assigned to building projects in order of when you laid the blueprint and how many each contruction needs, however seems to prioritize on which builder gets to the resources they need first and or which construction requires less resources by default. Not fully tested but at the very least if you build less things at once you'll get each individual thing build faster

I think workers are assigned to construction in the order you laid the blueprints. But build time depends on how far away the resources are, so it is hard to predict what order they will finish in.

thanks for the tip :) i actually do tend to build multiple things at once so this should help
