<span style="font-size:1.6em;font-weight:600;text-align:center;display:block">Settlement Cities That Build Themselves</span>
At the start, Advanced Industrial Plots work the same as a basic Industrial plot by "mining" a resource, for example - a Lumber Yard will gather wood.
+
You can now put others, such as your companions, in charge of running settlements. They will build them up so that settlers can move in and create a city.
 
 
When the building upgrades, instead of just becoming a more complex structure for harvesting that material, the settler will take that material and process it into something more advanced for example - metal ore could be converted into Steel.
 
  
When the building upgrades again, the settler will use that processed resource to provide a product or service. For example - Nuclear Material could be used to create a power plant.
+
Much like plots, the cities will upgrade over time as they mature and are given enough time and resources.

Not only do these buildings follow a new pattern, but they now have variations at each level.
