If you have NATE, you can lay out your base however you want, as travel distance won’t matter much. The only suggestion in such a case would be to group the following facilities in one place: Mints, Mushroom Farms, Food Farms, Gopher Wheels, and troop training grounds for the ease of resource collection.
If you don’t have NATE, then the travel distance will slightly impact the overall efficiency. Here are some of the guidelines to follow in such a case:
- Place your mints near your Warehouse and one of your iron farms. This will ensure that iron gets delivered faster to your Mints.
- Place your generator near your Warehouse or coal mine to shorten the coal supply time.
- Place your food farms near your Diner, which should be near your water source.
Note: the location of Coal, Stone, and Iron Mines inside your base seems to be random for players (need to confirm this).
