I dont quite get Adjacency.

from GalCiv3 Forums

Does it only effect a building with a similar property?

 

Example.. two factorys and a research buildings all touching each other.

 

The factories clearly give the other factory a bonus but is any benefit applied to the research building?

 

The same goes for Planet side resouces.. that say +1 wealth to all adjacent tiles..

 

Does that mean every BUILT UP  tile makes +1 wealth or only wealth generating buildings (like banks) benefit?

 

Thank you for the help.

It is rather simple... each improvement belong to one or more categories. If any building next to them give a bonus to that category they gain a number of levels depending on what adjacency bonuses those buildings give.

 

So... a "basic factory" is a Manufacturing improvement, they also give +1 level to any other adjacent Manufacturing improvements. So in this case any other "basic factory" adjacent to them gain one level. If you for example build three factories in a triangle shape they all have two other improvements adjacent that give them a level and thus all factories will be level two.

 

Special terrain traits work the same. They either give a specific bonus to a certain type built in the hex and a different bonus to anything built next to them.

 

A research lab only give adjacency bonus to research improvement so they will not give any help to a factory built next to them, the opposite is also true.

 

If this make any sense to you?  :)

When you build anything...look at the description of it...it will say at the bottom what it gives a bonus to.

The factories don't give anything to the Research building. Factories only give adjacency to other Manufacturing buildings (factories and power plants)

The same goes for Planet side resouces.. that say +1 wealth to all adjacent tiles..

It only affects buildings classified as "Wealth Improvements", such as banks.
