 Chariot Stops (cs) are not up and running at the beginning of the game.  There is a University Tech that will need donations so we citizens can repair them.  They are the transportation network in the game, instantly transporting you to different regions.  So building decently near a chariot stop saves a huge amount of play time in the game.

-Build one compound right up against water. Why? You will be building many machines inside your compound.  Before building a compound, stand where the fish or water icon appears in the top left(have a jug and/or fishing pole in your inventory).  Build kettles and toxin kitchens near water so you can stand without moving and use those machines without running back and forth to a water source. Leave room to build at least one warehouse for grabbing and then storing the mats needed to run these machines.  Building like that allows you to overload yourself and cook away in your kettles or your toxin kitchens.

 When building beehives (apiaries) and serpentariums (cobra pits) try using /crowd to check to see the crowding percentage.  The less crowding percentage the better for a queen bee to settle in or cobras to slither in. Try for 1% crowding which is a good 30 coords from any other buildings.  Crowding also affects how quickly beeswax and honey production renews.  You must take the honey and beeswax out for it to renew again.  Higher Speed on your avatar keeps less bees from escaping. These facts are another reason not to build compounds (your camp) too closely to others.
-Build forges together with carpentry benches, pottery wheels, rock saws, mason benches, and flax machines.  Forging takes time, so while you wait between batches if you have other machines nearby you can get other things made like boards, jugs, stone products and flax chores. Again, arrange warehouses within reach for supplies.  You can build a Bonfire (only built outside of your compound) within reach of your carpentry benches to grab wood to make boards.
+Build a compound for parties!  It could have several wine tables in the center, many kitchens near the outer walls and chests for supplies.
