Can anyone explain how refineries work?
I place a grainary silhouette. It lights up several fields nearby with gears. Is that how it works --as an area effect increasing the yield of harvesters in the field? Or do the harvesters have to carry the grain to the grainary?
Are there pathing issues to make sure they work, like placing a grainary on each road between a field and a storehouse? What effect does assigning disciple refiners to a grainary have/what does the productivity number mean?
Also not sure how Lumbermill and Smelters work. Is it good to lift ore rocks to be placed near the smelter? I've not noticed gears lighting up when I place either of these two refiners on the map so far, not sure at all how they work.
