Description

The distribution center allows you to place large transport orders. Thus, several vehicles can be selected for transports or several vehicles can be maintained.

Build

First you have to build your distribution center. You don't need to buy land (see Regions) for this, as you need it for the other buildings. To do this, go to the start screen (without already having a building window open) and click on the "Transport" button at the bottom. Your transport area will open. At the bottom click on the button "Distribution Center". There you can buy the distribution center. The construction time is 7 days (it is a big building), but you can shorten it by watching advertisements or buying diamonds.

Transport orders

You can now place large orders by clicking the "Transport orders" button. . There you will find a list of all vehicles that are located in a selected region. If you have selected a vehicle type, you can now execute an order as with a single transport order. You set the desired number of vehicles (direct input), add the materials to be transported and then start the order. Vehicles that are already running an order, are broken or are in maintenance cannot be used for large orders. As soon as they have completed the orders and/or the vehicles have been repaired, they are available again for large orders.

Maintenance orders

With many vehicles, it's easy to lose track of their maintenance status. So that you can concentrate on your transport orders and not lose valuable time, you now have the option of maintaining all your vehicles at the same time. To do this, go to your distribution center and click the "Maintenance orders" button at the bottom left. There you can now select the type in a region and use the slider to set from which maintenance status your vehicles should be serviced. You can see at a glance how many vehicles are affected. You can trigger the maintenance orders by clicking on the red button.
