During the story campaign Frostpunk 2 (New London scenario) you will be faced with the task of delivering oil from the Old Dreadnought to New London. Due to the beautiful, but extremely poorly organized interface, you will either not find a menu for sending goods (and residents), or you will not be able to send more than 60 or 66 oil. This guide will help you solve these problems.
Where can I find the freight transport menu?
So you’ve founded a colony in Old Dreadnaught. In the game you have to transfer 75 oil to New London.
Find the Old Dreadnought colony icon and click on it (see screenshot):
Below the icon, an additional menu with three icons will appear from left to right: resources, people and going to the colony.
Click the source icon, not the arrows surrounding it.
Congratulations, you have found the menu for transporting goods, and also the menu for transporting people.
The transport menu can be called up in any city or on any map level (city, Frostlands). The main thing is not to confuse the icons. You can’t send resources directly to New London; clicking the icon is useless. Resources can only be shipped from the colony.
Why is there only 60 oil available? How to ship 75 oil?
It seems all that’s left is to select oil, pull the slider and send it to New London. But many players are faced with the fact that the slider rests at 60. The exact value depends on the tax entered on goods: if there is a tax, the transfer limit is increased to 66, but this does not solve the problem.
You can even check the oil reserves and make sure the “tanks are full”, there is 10,000 oil in the warehouses. But for some reason it doesn’t send more than 60 (66) and the slider doesn’t move to the right.
The reason is that you are not producing enough oil in the Old Dreadnought. Build a second (or better yet, all three) oil producing areas. Some of the loot is used to keep the Dreadnought’s stove running, so a second area is needed. The basic productivity of one area is 60 units of oil.
That is to say, all you get is a poorly thought out script. Don’t worry, just start sending oil to New London whenever possible. Important: Even if you cannot immediately complete the task of delivering exactly 75 units, still send the oil; in any case, you won’t be able to complete the game and New London will freeze.
Return to the Old Dreadnought map and gradually open up access to the remaining oil reserves by building additional production areas. After the construction of the second district, the limits are recalculated and you can send 75 units of oil. The maximum production without improvements is 200 units, the transfer limit for trails is 250, for the cable car – 650.
