Workshops and labs generate heat. If a module isn't properly heated or gets too hot, its efficiency drops.
Up to 20% increased output for terrestrial factories.
Once you have reached the maximum station size, try creating a closed-loop layout. By connecting the ends of your "ribs" back to each other, you create multiple paths for heat and power. This redundancy prevents a single accidental deletion from powering down half of your station. Anno 2205 Orbital Station Layout
Building a high-performing station requires more than just snapping pieces together. You need a layout that maximizes "Adjacency Bonuses" while minimizing the cost of expensive connectors. 1. The "Spine and Rib" Method
As you unlock more space, a radial design often proves superior. Branching out in four or six directions from the Hub allows you to isolate different research types. Workshops and labs generate heat
Ensure you have enough life support modules to sustain the specific tier of Scientists required for your chosen research. Advanced Pro-Tip: The "Modular Loop"
You must balance Agriculture, Electronics, and Heavy Industry research wings to maintain a versatile tech tree. Optimal Layout Strategies Once you have reached the maximum station size,
Place your heaviest power-drawing modules closest to the Hub to simplify logistics. 2. The Snowflake (Radial) Design
These should be placed centrally to serve multiple wings. The Role of Technology Effects
