Hi mcdaddie,
You have all the information we currently have in the first post of this thread and in the help with the chains manager. We do not know any more than you do. We will have to wait until more is released and written up by Raul.

did you start the chain in the chain facility manager before you filled the Bakerys?

Which way are you supposed to do it? Fill first and then start the chain or does starting the chain fill the facilities?

Thanks for the update Raul and all the team, looks like you've all been working hard to get this new chain thing going, I think it'll be great when it's working fully.It took me a few clicks and I had to delete quite a few chains before I found one that would work for me but eventually found one and the benefits of it look great.

I started the chain then went to fill them up, they're highlighted so's you know which ones to do. Seemed to work ok.

OK I may not be firing on all cylinders this morning! These new Facility chains (which I think is a great idea BTW just need to understand it). If I make a Facility a chain is it permanent or do I select a new one next week and this weeks one reverts to normal? If I change my mind can I cancel a facility being a chain and choose another? Is there a time limit every week on how long we have to choose? How do I know if a neighbour has a chain for me to export to? Sorry about the questions - as I said I'm not really with it today

I was just getting ready to post a similar question. Here's my question - one of the rules is this:

"9. One final and important rule is that if facility X is related to facility Y, at any given time you can have a chain of facility X or a chain of facility Y but not both. This will incentivize players owning a chain of X to trade products with neighbours owning a chain of Y."

If a chain only lasts for a week or some limited about of time, then 9 makes sense to me - sorta But if they're permanent, how are we going to know whether we'd rather start a chain with facility X or facility Y? The fact that it says "at any given time" makes me think they're NOT permanent but I also don't see anything indicating how long they DO last? I can see that maybe down the road it will all make sense but I'd love to understand a bit more of the strategy. I think for now I may just go ahead and jump in and try one - but I'm still going to keep reading here so I can learn from what the mods and other users say.

Tried my Bakery. Got that "needs to be finished" message someone else had posted about. Went to my Facility Manager tool and stored everything/cashed out everything. "Done" said 0. Went back to try to create the chain and got the same message. Do we have to allow the facility we want to get totally empty before we start the chain? It says if I continue, all the finished products in my Bakeries will automatically get sent to storage - which should be fine, I would think - but there AREN'T any finished products in my Bakeries anymore.

I tried that - but am still getting the "need to be emptied" message.
