Connect the documented inputs
The official rule reads: 2 Fish or 2 Meat and 1 Sheet Metal ➔ 2 Canned Food. This preserves its OR wording; the grouping of alternative inputs has not been verified. Inspect the recipe in your installed industry window before planning supply. Do not assume that every documented cargo name is required at the same time.
Plan the output destination
The listed output of Canning Factory is Canned Food. Find the next processor or a town district with actual demand for that output. Check the pickup terminal, cargo-compatible vehicles and any transfer warehouse. Output waiting in stock is a different constraint from missing input deliveries.
Separate boosts and climate
The industry table lists these cargo boosters: No cargo booster listed. Worker supply is recorded separately. The documented free-game climates are Temperate, Dry, Tropical, Subarctic; this is the table scope rather than a promise of a particular generated map location. Compare optional supply with downstream transport capacity before expanding the chain.
Verify the recipe in your save
