General data
Drawn by George, inspired by fishing boat "Pulkovo Meridian" by Michael Platov
The Fishing grounds is the part of the ECS Agricultural Vector.
Cargoes
Accepting
The Fishing grounds processes Passengers.
The Fishing grounds does not accept any cargo during first 93 days of life if built in game.
Cargo acceptance is limited by capacity of the Fishing grounds, Passengers above capacity are rejected.
| Level | Passengers | Passengers (reduced) |
|---|---|---|
| Very low | 128 | 112 |
| Low | 144 | 128 |
| Normal | 160 | 144 |
| High | 176 | 160 |
| Very high | 192 | 176 |
| Ultimate | 208 | 192 |
Passengers are processed every 8-th production cycle (usually once a month). The first team leaves the fishing grounds, providing free place for a new team.
Production
The Fishing grounds produces Fish.
The Fishing grounds does not produce any cargo during first 93 days of life if built in game.
The Fishing grounds uses 124 production levels, represented in % from 3% to 100%.
To calculate a month production values should be summarized for all the cycles of the month (usually 8 or 9). The following calculations are given for one production cycle.
Amount of Fish produced during one cycle depends on the following factors: amount of Passengers on board, the current week and a random factor.
If less than 48 Passengers are waiting, amount of Fish produced is halved, while if more than 96 are waiting, amount of Fish is increased by 50%.
The week factor defines the base and the random factor selects production for this base.
The table below represents the maximum and minimum possible values, and also the average value.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Production change
Production change happens on the 1-st day of every 14th month.
The Fishing grounds does not change production level during first 93 days of life if built in game.
On the lowest production level (Very low or 3%) advanced closure mechanism is applied with the following protection conditions:
- last one on the map
- younger than 10 years for industries, built in SE (scenario editor) or during map generation, younger than 4 years for others
- transportation level > 75%
Protection can be changed with parameter of ECS Agricultural Vector to the following protection conditions:
- last one on the map
- younger than 10 years for industries, built in SE (scenario editor) or during map generation, younger than 4 years for others
- transportation level > 1%
- Fishing grounds was built by the player during game play
Changing production level consists of two levels. The first is the general level, that defines the current max production; the second is the local level, that defines current production level. During 14 months after the last general production level change the industry summarizes the transportation level of each month, giving "-1" if less than 50% of produced cargo was transported, "+1" if more than 75% was transported and "0" for 50%-75%. At the end of the 14 month period the score is examine, if it is above 6 the general production level increases by one, if it is below -6 then production drops to the lowest level. If the result is between -6 and 6 it continues at the current production level until the score exceeds +6 or falls below -6. Local production levels change every month and decrease if the transportation last month is less than 50% and increases if more than 75%. Local production can never be higher that general production level.
Construction
The Fishing grounds has one layout.
The Fishing grounds has high probability (7) to be built by map generator and normal probability (3) to be built during game play.
The Fishing grounds cannot be built by a player in a game. It should be prospected instead. It has 60% probability to be prospected near other Fishing grounds (at most 64 tiles away) and 25% probability far from it. Prospecting cost factor is 255. Construction conditions for SE and map generator are represented in the table.
When prospected by the player during a game, the Fishing grounds will be in company colours of the builder. When generated by the game or built while in the scenario editor, the Fishing grounds will pick up the colour randomly.
| SE | Condition |
|---|---|
| Build on water | |
| Build on flat land | |
| Build at least 16 tiles away from land | |
| Build > 16 tiles from a Animal farm | |
| Build > 16 tiles from a Tinning factory | |
| Build > 8 tiles from a Fishing grounds |
