In Frostpunk 2, managing your population is essential. This includes providing employment opportunities and allocating vital resources effectively. Ensuring that your townsfolk are well-fed is crucial, as starvation ranks as the second most common issue in the city, following freezing temperatures.
To maintain a stable food supply, you must establish food sources utilizing available resources. Although setting up a Food District can serve as a temporary solution, it’s not a long-term fix.
Food Sources in Frostpunk 2
Locate the Fertile Soil near your Generator. Open the resource menu to find food icons, which can be easily recognized by their plant symbols.
Create a path to reach the Fertile Soil by using the frostbreaking button and selecting the shortest route. You can further expand your reach via these paths to unlock additional fertile areas.
Once you’ve unlocked an area, you can construct a Food District there using the Construct Districts menu. You are free to establish multiple Food Districts, but remember that feeding a larger population will require more than just two Food Districts.
A standard Food District needs six adjacent tiles. If you place two districts side by side, you will receive a heat bonus.
Now your city can comfortably avoid the looming threat of starvation.
How to Ensure Your City Doesn’t Experience Starvation?
To prevent starvation, keep a close watch on the ‘Hunger‘ meter, which will indicate areas where hunger is present.
Always ensure you have an ample food supply. You can assess your stockpile capacity by hovering over a food icon.
As your city expands, remember to build Food Stockpile Hubs from the Construct Hubs menu to manage food more effectively.
Food Sources Breakdown
Here’s a list of food sources along with their production capacity:
- Base Food District: +50 Food
- Expanded Food District: +60 Food
- Food Stockpile Hub: +50K stockpile capacity; reduced workforce needs in nearby Food Districts
- Hothouses: boost food production rates.
- Food Additives Law: enhances production efficiency.
- Deep Deposits: provide nearly unlimited food (look for an infinity symbol next to a food icon).
- Scouts: help uncover new food sources in surrounding regions.
