To do so, select the beginning depot and activate "Conveyor mode". The depot will now automatically pick up items requested by connected logistics clients.

As the name implies, they will only do normal priority tasks when no high priority tasks are available. - Gameplay: You can now place farms and groves on top of foundations. - Gameplay: Simplified the decoration system.
