Editing Arctic Biome (section)

== Overview ==
The Arctic biome is associated with frozen tundra and polar landscapes. Unlike other biomes, the Arctic has no primary resource to harvest locally. {{Icon|Wood}} is used as the construction material, the same as the [[Wood Biome]], but at significantly higher costs.

=== Construction ===
Buildings in the Arctic biome cost {{Icon|Wood}} as their primary resource, at double the rate of the [[Wood Biome]]. A [[Shack]] costs '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} compared to '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=wood}}''' in the Wood biome, and a [[Cabin]] costs '''{{BuildingData|name=house_3|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} compared to '''{{BuildingData|name=house_3|data=cost|biome=wood|resource=wood}}'''. The [[Town Hall]] costs '''{{formatnum:{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} plus '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=stone}}''' {{Icon|Stone}}, '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=tools}}''' {{Icon|Tools}}, and '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=glass}}''' {{Icon|Glass}}. The {{Icon|Wood}} cost is 1.5× the Wood biome rather than the usual 2×.

=== Housing Upkeep ===
The Arctic biome has the highest housing upkeep of any biome, with {{Icon|Wood}} consumption at double the standard rate. A [[Shack]] consumes '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} per day, compared to '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=wood|resource=wood}}''' in the [[Wood Biome]] and [[Stone Biome]], or '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=earth|resource=wood}}''' in the [[Earth Biome]]. {{Icon|Food}} consumption remains the same across all biomes.

=== Resource Production ===
The Arctic biome has no resource extraction buildings. The [[Woodcutter]], [[Quarry]], [[Claypit]], [[Iron Mine]], and [[Foraging Hut]] cannot be built. This means there is no local production of {{Icon|Wood}}, {{Icon|Stone}}, {{Icon|Earth}}, or {{Icon|Ore}}.

The [[Fishery]] is the only source of local food production, generating '''{{BuildingData|name=fishery|data=rate|resource=food}}''' {{Icon|Food}} per day. [[Boat|Boats]] can be placed near the Fishery or [[Pier]] to add '''{{BuildingData|name=boat|data=rate|resource=food}}''' {{Icon|Food}} per day each. The Fishery requires a coastal placement and '''{{BuildingData|name=fishery|data=cost|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} to build.

Processing buildings such as the [[Windmill]], [[Bakery]], [[Brewery]], [[Tailor]], [[Creamery]], [[Refinery]], and [[Tools Workshop]] are available and operate at the same rates as in other biomes. However, all raw materials for these buildings {{C|{{Icon|Grain}}, {{Icon|Milk}}, {{Icon|Wool}}, {{Icon|Ore}}}} must be imported through trade.
