Zontar Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Hi! I have 2 Oil Power Plants, 6 oil wells, and a net excess of .27 tons of oil per turn; my city is powered but manufacturing, etc. are not. Where did I go wrong? :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zei-Sakura Alsainn Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Do you have at least 1 oil on your nation. If not, you gotta keep at least 1 oil present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you have at least 1 unit of oil on your nation, you'll be fine. The 0.27 per turn will make sure you stay powered. If you have less than 1 oil stockpiled in your nation, you'll have no power. Same goes for coal or uranium plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I need to increase oil drilling until the excess is 1 or greater? (Meaning that I need to buy more oil wells?)

The icon for oil needs to be 1 or greater. Meaning you produce enough oil to keep it going, you just need to physically have 1 or more oil for it to start working.

Hmmm...does not compute?!? I still don't have power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although as a small nation it's advisable for you not to manufacture at all. I'd reccomend you drop all manufacturing and the lead mine to max out oil Wells (max of 12 per city), as you will get a 50% production bonus. You can then sell the excess oil for money. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll consider it as I learn the game better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
