¶ Overview
The Cottage is a Tile Improvement that provides shelter for your Residents and generates Coins. The Cottage consumes food items that are stored in the Granary or Warehouse. In return it provides a good amount of Coins every hour at Hourly Tick. If the feeding Structure runs out of food, the Cottage will start starving and might level down after some time. They also won't generate any Coins during the starvation, so it's important to keep the feeding Structure stocked at all times.
