Zero logistical bottleneck detected. Ensure all processing mills are positioned within 18 grid tiles of the nearest Frontier Warehouse to keep courier turnaround under 40 seconds.

Frontier Logistics Golden Rules

The 18-Tile Warehouse Rule: Workers will carry up to 4 units on foot before requiring a cart courier. Placing farms beyond 18 tiles causes an instant 35% productivity drop due to commute fatigue.

Winter Prep Ratios: In winter cycles, farming parcel yields drop by 50% unless insulated greenhouses are researched. Build a 2-month surplus in your Warehouse before the first freeze.
