Cab Assembly Line

Cab Assembly Line is a Production Building which turns

Steam Motors and

Chassis into

Steam Carriages. It can be built only in the Old World (and Cape Trelawney), it requires

electricity to operate.

Productivity[]

It takes 30 seconds to produce 1 ton of steam carriages from 1 ton of steam motors and 1 ton of chassis so the production rate is 2 tons of steam carriages per minute. Productivity can be changed by adjusting working conditions and using items. As electricity is required to operate, this factory produces with 200% productivity by default.

Trivia[]

The production chain of steam carriages is the most complex chain in Anno 1800 (excluding DLCs), featuring 11 buildings. One of them has to be built in the New World (Caoutchouc Plantation), two of them require electricity to operate (Motor Assembly Line and Cab Assembly Line).
