Quick answer
Increase speed when animals spend too long chopping. Increase carrying power when they waste time on frequent return trips.
The two confirmed crew improvements
- Chopping speed reduces the time required to process trees.
- Carrying power increases how much timber a crew can move.
- The official description does not publish exact level costs or multipliers.
Find the bottleneck
Watch where animals spend time. Long stationary chopping points toward speed. Short chopping followed by constant travel points toward capacity or layout.
One focused upgrade is easier to measure than several mixed purchases.
A repeatable upgrade test
- 1
Choose one animal route and observe it for two minutes.
- 2
Count completed trips and note the payout.
- 3
Buy one speed or capacity upgrade.
- 4
Repeat on the same floor.
- 5
Keep investing only if the completed-cycle rate improves.
