Building Placement and Resource Production
You should always aim to place your buildings as close to the respective storage building for the resource. By placing closer to the storage building such as stockpile, hall, granary, or inn, you can increase the amount of resources yielded per day. You can note the amount of resources being produced by the building by looking at the number located on top. Aim for the placement where it will generate the most number of resources.
You will have to build the resource buildings where the resources are available. This means that you should build stone quarries near the stone areas. Also, all buildings require wood and or stone to be built, in addition some Stronghold Kingdoms building also require gold to be built.
Construction Queue and Limit
You have a limit of one construction queue unless you pay for the premium service which can increase your construction queue to a total of 5 buildings at the same time.
Population Limit and Workers
You will need to have enough peasants to work in the buildings of your village for it to be producing. You can build hovels closer to your village hall to increase the population as well as making more hovels. Increasing the popularity can increase the rate at which your Stronghold Kingdom will attract the new immigrants. Lastly, you can always disband some of your armies so they become your resource production force again.
