Construction Yard
This article is timeless and should be accurate for any version of the game.
| “ | Construction Yards allow for various structures to be built, which can be packaged and moved around via a Crane. A Crane can then transfer the shipment to a Flatbed Truck or a Freighter for efficient long distance transport. | „ |
| — In-game description |
The Construction Yard is a world structure found in certain towns where most shippable structures can be built. It comes with a Stationary Crane to lift the built structure off the yard.
Construction
It cannot be built, it is found in certain towns in the world. Its location is indicated by an icon 
on the map.
Reconstruction
A destroyed Construction Yard can be rebuilt with a Construction Vehicle and 400 Basic Materials if the nearby Town Base has unlocked the Industry 
base upgrade.
Stationary Crane
A Construction Yard always has a Stationary Crane next to it. The crane is not part of the yard, it must be rebuilt separately if destroyed.
Use
Shippable Production
To build structures, the player interacts with the building (by default pressing the E key). A build menu opens and the player can select which structure they want to build. A blueprint of the selected structure will spawn inside the Construction Yard. Players can then build the structure using their hammers. Like building defenses, players need to have the right materials in their inventories in order to build. Up to 3 players can be hammering the structure simultaneously.
Only shippable structures belonging to your Faction and that have been researched can be built.
If the center of the yard is obstructed the blueprint can't appear.
