Districts are the most basic construction mechanic in Frostpunk 2. They are structures that allow the city to function and both provide and consume various resources.
All districts cover multiple Tiles and cost 
Heatstamps and Prefabs to build. Some must be built starting from resource deposits such as fertile ground or frozen forest. Many districts additionally have adjacency bonuses (referred to in-game as "area affects"), for example reducing 
Heat cost, or adjacency maluses creating problems like 
Squalor. They can also be improved by hub coverage.
Districts can be expanded to produce more resources. Expanded districts may permit the construction of additional buildings within, which act as district upgrades. Expanding a district generally does not cost more maintenance resources such as 
Workforce or 
Materials, while increasing the resource output: therefore making the district more efficient overall. However, expansion is generally quite heatstamp intensive compared to creating a new district. The player may have to balance district expansion against what resources they require and currently have available, as well as trading off against other options like upgrading the district with a building or available resource deposits. Most districts can only be expanded once, except for the Housing district.
Districts can have special actions like Emergency Shifts or Half Shifts. Buildings can enable actions like Emergency Session or Rush Researchers. Districts can be turned off using the "power button" at the bottom of their menu.
Unless removing the whole district, tiles cannot be selectively demolished or moved after being built. So it can be recommended to plan carefully, especially if you intend to maximise adjacency with future expansions, hubs, or subsequent entirely new districts. For example, allow for 3 tiles of connection in both ways to ensure both districts get a symmetrical benefit, or two tile range towards a hub.
Frostpunk 2 District Types[edit | edit source]
There are several District Types in Frostpunk 2. Each of the Districts have their own unique role in the city.
Enables sending frostland charting expeditions and moving resources between cities and outposts.
In the prologue some basic proto-districts are also available with reduced costs.
Frostpunk 2 Hub Types[edit | edit source]
Hubs are special buildings in FP2 that have unique effects on the neighboring Districts. In order for hub to take effect on the district, at least 3 district hexes should be in its range of influence. In the release version some storage-like buildings also have hub effects.
In the beta these hubs were previously available.
