A great choice! Anno 1800 is a fantastic game, and I'd be happy to help you with a mail guide.
What is the Mail System in Anno 1800?
In Anno 1800, the mail system allows you to send and receive goods, resources, and even passengers between your settlements and other players' settlements. This system is crucial for trade, commerce, and even diplomacy.
How to Use the Mail System:
- Build a Mail Station: Construct a Mail Station in your settlement to enable mail services. You can build it in the Industrial or Commercial district.
- Create a Mail Route: Draw a route between your settlement and another settlement (including other players' settlements) to establish a mail connection. You can do this by clicking on the "Mail" button in the settlement menu and then selecting the destination.
- Send Mail: To send mail, select the goods, resources, or passengers you want to send and click on the "Send Mail" button. You can also use the "Auto-Send" feature to automatically send mail based on your settlement's needs.
- Receive Mail: When you receive mail, you'll see a notification in the top-right corner of the screen. Click on the notification to collect your mail and add it to your settlement's inventory.
Tips and Tricks:
- Prioritize Mail Routes: Focus on establishing mail routes with settlements that have high demand for your goods or resources.
- Manage Your Inventory: Keep an eye on your settlement's inventory and adjust your mail sending accordingly to avoid congestion.
- Use the Auto-Send Feature: Auto-Send can help you maintain a steady flow of goods and resources, but be cautious not to overproduce and waste resources.
- Trade with Other Players: Use the mail system to trade goods and resources with other players, which can be a great way to acquire rare resources or goods.
- Monitor Your Mail Station: Keep an eye on your Mail Station's capacity and upgrade it as needed to increase its storage and processing capabilities.
Common Issues and Solutions:
- Mail Not Being Sent: Check your settlement's inventory and ensure you have enough resources to send mail. Also, verify that the mail route is established correctly.
- Mail Not Being Received: Check the destination settlement's inventory and ensure it has enough space to receive mail. Also, verify that the mail route is established correctly.
- Mail Congestion: Manage your settlement's inventory and adjust your mail sending accordingly to avoid congestion.
