You are not stuck with the starting platform. The Sector Projects are expensive but essential.
The ultimate goal of your layout is to generate enough to unlock global tech bonuses in the Nexus. Since you are limited to 12 workshops, you cannot unlock every technology simultaneously. Anno 2205 Orbital Station Layout
to unlock powerful global technology buffs. Creating an efficient layout is a spatial puzzle that involves balancing heat, module distance, and a hard cap on available workshops. Core Mechanics & Requirements You are not stuck with the starting platform
In Anno 2205 , the functions as a complex logistics and heat-management puzzle that dictates the efficiency of global research bonuses. Unlike the terrestrial sessions, the station neglects standard grid-based placement in favor of a Modular Connection system where the distance and clear-path logic between workshops and modules determine productivity. Core Mechanics of Station Design Since you are limited to 12 workshops, you
This is the most common and efficient starter layout. You create a long central corridor of connectors (the spine) and attach research wings (the ribs) perpendicular to it. Easy to expand and navigate.
