Zoomed in Generator

The Generator in Frostpunk 2 is more abstract than the first game. It is still roughly in the middle of the playable Nation, situated within the UIT Icon District Central.png Central District, but its management is now automatic.

The Generator still generates UIT Icon Resource Heat.png Heat, and if Heat is not fulfilled, the generator will no longer protect against Cold. In order to produce heat, the generator can consume UIT Icon Resource Coal.png Coal or oil as resources, and will automatically scale its input accordingly and automatically.

In order to unlock additional fuel sources for the Generator it has to be upgraded. Upgrades needs to be unlocked via Generator Upgrade Research in the Idea Tree and are mutually exclusive. It can either run on UIT Icon Resource Oil.png Oil only or on UIT Icon Resource Coal.png Coal, UIT Icon Resource Oil.png Oil or UIT Icon Resource Steam.png Steam after the upgrade.

The Steward can choose to overdrive the generator to improve the fuel to heat ratio. If the overdrive gets too high, a dangerous accident may occur that damages the population.

According to a loading screen tip, all other districts have Power Hubs.
