When To Care
Care about the forester when wood cutting keeps interrupting research, building, or airship trips. It is strongest after storage and crafting have a clear wood input route.
Practical Use
Forester should be used when it directly improves the current route. Put it near related storage and workstations so the benefit shows up every day, not only when you remember where it is.
Related Strategy
Use this with the Other structure route that actually spends or unlocks it. If it does not reduce a chore, unlock a new route, produce a needed material, or support the next trip, it can wait behind food, water, storage, and research basics.
Common Mistakes
- Do not handle Forester in isolation; connect it to the route, station, or system that makes it useful.
- Do not hoard everything equally. Prioritize what removes the current bottleneck.
- Do not skip organization in co-op. Shared storage and clear roles keep useful items from disappearing into personal inventories.
