Transport connects the tower. Elevators, escalators, stairs and other transport have capacity, routing and operational state; powered transport also uses Power.

People need a usable route to each destination. Congestion and slow journeys worsen commute-related room evaluation, while a power shortage can take powered transport out of service.

Practical play: build capacity before distant floors need it, spread demand across routes, and watch Traffic as population grows.

-Commute is a common room-evaluation factor: a room can be rentable but still perform poorly if tenants and visitors cannot reach it efficiently. As the tower grows, add capacity and choose transport placement to keep wait and travel times practical. Power shortages can also take powered transport out of service.
