Finally understood logistic supplying your units
Posted: Tue Jan 27, 2026 7:30 pm
Hello Team,
I wanted to share something that I finally understood about logistics, hoping it might help someone else too. If I've made any mistakes or misunderstood something, please feel free to correct me.
Logistics Overview:
Unit Selection & Logistic Cap:
Select the unit and click on "Logistic Cap" to view details.
Understanding the Indicators:
Yellow Line: Indicates the source of logistics. In this scenario, supplies are coming from Pina.
Blue Points: Reflects the transport capacity in tons that can be delivered by trucks, foot, and dual means. For example, 4 points for trucks mean 4 tons can be delivered.
Grey Path: Represents path difficulty. Each hex has a path point; the higher the path number, the more challenging it is for supplies to reach the unit. Lower numbers are better.
Red: Shows the actual tonnage being delivered, which is cumulative.
Delivery Calculation Example:
Issue: Why is only 3 tons being delivered when trucks can carry 4?
Calculation:
Formula: (Truck Points (4) x 24 (hours in a day)) / Path (30) = 3.2, rounded down to 3.
Explanation: Trucks are making 3 trips a day, delivering 3 tons.
Supply and Demand Management:
If your supply demand is 2 tons and your delivery capacity is 3 tons, the unit is adequately supplied.
If supply drops and trucks deliver only 1 ton, check for increased path difficulty. Consider moving units closer to a base or bring logistic units nearer to facilitate delivery.
I hope this helps clarify the logistics process for everyone. Please let me know if you have any questions or insights!
