Help during the game
Where can I get new construction contracts?
Please check the menu "Contracts" for new projects. Exciting projects await. HINT: You can only have one active contract at a time.
How do I order a crane to the construction site?
On construction sites where a crane can be used you will find a special crane site. After long tapping the crane site you will get an option to order the crane. After doing so it will be delivered and set up automatically.
How do I open the map?
In the upper left corner of the screen you will find a landmark symbol. Clicking the symbol once opens an overview of all important places as well as your current construction sites. If you long tap the symbol you will get access to the map instead.
There are important places missing on the map. How do I find the way to the vehicle trader, the materials trader or the gravel pit?
Before an important location will be marked on your map permanently you have to visit it first. Usually you will be lead to these locations during a construction or delivery mission. After accepting a mission, you will always get the opportunity to program your navigation system to the destination automatically. This way it should be easy to find the location for the first time.
