Goods Buildings are buildings that produce goods, one of the main resources of the game. For most players the goods buildings are the main source of goods. Currently there are 75 different types of goods buildings in the game.
Goods are needed for researching technologies, building Great Buildings, and for maintenance in the Guild vs. Guild warfare. Goods can also be used to negotiate provinces, Guild Expeditions or Daily Challenges and can be traded with other players.
Mechanics
Goods Buildings have similar mechanics to those of production buildings. There are four different production rates, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours (1 day), and 48 hours (2 days), allowing different amounts of goods to be produced.
To reach the full production potential the player should acquire a corresponding good deposit for a good building. Without the deposit the amount of goods produced is five times smaller.
The player has to manually assign the production for each building by spending coins and supplies. From the Modern Era to the Virtual Future some unrefined goods are needed also. Unrefined goods are goods from an earlier age (always 3 ages back). For example Colonial Age goods for Modern Era Goods Buildings. Some Great Buildings produce current era goods up till the Modern Era. They will start to produce unrefined goods from Modern Era onwards.
In Space Age Mars the whole concept of producing goods works quite differently than from earlier ages. To begin with, the player has to build the Goods Buildings on their Mars Colony (not in the main city on Earth). That means one needs Colonists instead of Population and Mars Ore instead of unrefined goods. Moreover, the cost for producing goods also depends on the amount of Life Support, the Martian equvialent of Happiness. Having a high amount of Life Support means that the player will receive a discount in the cost of goods production on the Mars Colony. The actual discount received varies, but it is always discounts in coins and supplies costs.
