Resource Development

[scroggin]

There was quite a bit of resources untapped in the Europe, which became available once Germany built 100,000 km of rail in eastern Europe. It's not just about knowing where the resources are, it's mostly about having the supply network capacity to get resources from extraction to factories.

Agreed, you can also increase output of resources with more manpower and better mechanization. More miners = more coal

Not having rubber doesn't prevent you building trucks. The number of trucks produced per week is reduced, in other words some of the factories you assign to building trucks are producing the synthetic rubber that is needed for the tyres. There is no need to model synthetic rubber plants as a building you construct in your states.

That's true, but what is your point? By your logic synthetic oil plants are useless too then? The reason we can build them is that building a synthetic plant early, is better then losing 50% production later. Besides, I'm pretty sure the synthetic plant gives both rubber and oil, at least it used to.

I think there is a branch called excavation, that increases the mining output. Saw it being researched in the WWW.

Yes, i think it did something like +10% resource output.
