If productivity drops for any reason, stores may not be able to keep up with customers, factories might not produce fast enough, hospitals might not treat patients quickly enough, police stations may become overloaded with cases, and many others, causing further unhappiness and loss of productivity, and ultimately ending in a death spiral for the republic.

	In order to work, study or satisfy their needs, citizens employ various ~~methods~~ to move across the republic, from simply walking along ~~paths~~ to taking public transport ~~provided by the player,~~ or even driving personal cars.		In order to work, study or satisfy their needs, citizens employ various means of transport to move across the republic. This ranges from simply walking along footpaths to taking public transport or even driving personal cars.

	Regardless of the movement method used, citizens always teleport home after they finish their business, be it either finishing their work shift, or fulfilling their demands. This means that it is not necessary to provide bidirectional public transport routes.		Regardless of the movement method used, citizens always teleport home after they finish their business, be it either finishing their work shift, or fulfilling their demands. This means that it is not necessary to provide bidirectional public transport routes.

			===Choice of Transport===
			A citizen chooses a method of travel strictly based on availability of their most preferred travel method.

			All citizens will first attempt to find a way to satisfy their current demand (e. g. work, studying, fulfilling a need) on foot.

			Only if they cannot find a viable destination within their walking range, they will attempt to use other travel methods. If they own a personal car or there are claimable personal cars in a parking lot within their walking range, they will check all parking lots those cars can reach for whether there are ways to fulfill their needs within walking range of that parking lot.

			If neither option is available, they will navigate to the closest valid public transport stop. For workers, this includes only platforms that have the "worker" transit type enabled. Students and citizens looking to fulfill their needs will only be able to attend stops that accept "students" or "passengers" respectively.

			If citizens can find no transport whatsoever to a place that will satisfy their current demand, or if they have driven a car or waited at a platform for too long, they will stay or teleport home unemployed or unsatisfied respectively.

	===Walking===		===Walking===
	Citizens ~~like~~ to walk on ~~paths~~ and roads ~~to work~~, ~~school, bus stations, or any other building that~~ they ~~want~~ to go to~~, as long as~~ their ~~destination is not too far away~~. The distance is dictated by the ~~Walk~~ speed of the various paths and roads that they walk on~~, up to~~ a ~~maximum~~ of ~~480m of walking distance for~~ 100% ~~Walk speed~~. At 50% ~~Walk speed~~, this distance is reduced to only 240m. A combination of several types of paths or roads with different ~~Walk~~ speeds average out to form the final maximum walking distance, ~~thus~~ maximum distance is achievable only by using ~~[[Asphalt~~ footpath with ~~lamps]]~~ for the entire distance.		Citizens always prefer walking to buildings they want to go to. Citizens can walk on both dedicated footpaths and roads. However, they can only walk a certain distance and will not attempt to walk to places beyond their range.

			The walking distance is dictated by the walk speed quality of the various paths and roads that they walk on.

			Only considering paths with a walk speed of 100%, the maximum walking range is 480m. At a walk speed of 50%, this distance is reduced to only 240m.

			A combination of several types of paths or roads with different walk speeds average out to form the final maximum walking distance.

			Therefore, the maximum walking distance is achievable only by exclusively using the fastest footpath available - asphalt footpaths with streetlights - for the entire distance.

			====Walking Range Overlay====
			Every building allows the player to check which buildings are within its walking range using the respective button in its menu.

			All the possible paths that a citizen can take from that building are displayed as a blue dotted line and their distance at the destination.

	~~Walking reachability can be checked in the menu of each building, showing all the possible~~ paths that ~~a citizen can take from that building with a blue dotted line, along with the distance of each route. This option can~~ also take into account ~~paths that are~~ still in construction~~, using a light blue dotted line to show how the route will look like once the path is finished~~. This is useful to ensure reachability before committing to building.		Light-blue dotted lines and distances are paths that also take into account footpaths still under construction. This is a useful method to check and ensure on-foot reachability before committing to building.
