SEVEN MISTAKES THAT SLOW THE GRID

1. Scaling before the first sale
   You cannot diagnose a larger grid if you have not seen one complete generate-store-sell cycle.
2. Buying storage for a production problem
   Empty capacity does not create Power. Observe the battery before assuming capacity is the answer.
3. Buying output for a storage problem
   More generation is not automatically useful when stored Power cannot move through the rest of the loop.
4. Assuming theft rules
   Players can steal Power, but the public description does not say what is targeted or how stealing works. Use current game feedback rather than a hidden formula.
5. Treating promotional numbers as guaranteed
   Official artwork uses dramatic wattage and income figures. These are not a published rate table.
6. Following old prices blindly
   Prices, item availability, and interface labels can change. Confirm them in the current game.
7. Assuming Power a City is the official title
   The official title is Power Your City. Power a City is the guide domain and common search phrasing.
