Having a large city can be overwhelming with keeping track of everyone, what they’re doing, and what they’ve done. I figured out a few tricks to help in a general sort of way, most of it geared toward minimizing micromanagement.
Tips to Management
Housing for farmers
I’ve named my houses that are closest to my farms like this – Simple Small House (Farmer) – to keep track of where my farmers live, and to keep them close to the fields as proximity to the fields affects their work efficiency. This has cut literal days off of the time it takes them to complete seasonal work.
Farm fields
I’ve also named my fields in respect to the farm shed they’re nearest to so I can concentrate work on certain fields simply by assigning another worker from one farm shed to another that needs help.
Mines
I’ve named my mines and corresponding houses to keep track of the miners and where they live and work. Mostly for RP purposes, but also to prevent assigning a farmer to a distant mine.
I know most of you probably already have a system like this in effect, but hopefully this will help some new players.
