Civil Engineering
#CivilEngineeringConstruction efficiency - 15% faster building, +100 storage.
Description
❖Advanced construction principles. Reduces construction time by 15% and increases storage capacity by 100.
Full Encyclopedia Entry ▼
Civil Engineering applies systematic planning to construction. Engineers design efficient layouts, calculate load-bearing requirements, and coordinate complex projects. Cities built with these principles grow faster and stronger. The 15% construction time reduction accelerates all building projects while +100 storage supports larger resource reserves.
Creation
Requirements
Must be present (NOT consumed)
Costs
Consumed when created
Effects
All values are RATIOS. +% = bonus, -% = penalty. Effects multiply other systems.
Strategic Context
❖Advisory information only. Does not affect gameplay mechanics.
Advantages
- + 15% construction time reduction (permanent)
- + +100 storage capacity (flat bonus)
- + Enables Aeronautics (air units)
- + Enables AdvancedConstruction (25% reduction)
- + Faster building = faster expansion
Disadvantages
- - Requires Masonry AND Woodworking

- - Research time: 32000ms
Warnings
- ! Construction bonus is permanent and global
- ! Stacks with AdvancedConstruction
Synergies
Scaling
15% time reduction is a ratio (0.15). +100 storage is flat INTEGER. Both permanent.
