Question Advanced Industrial - Share Progress Between Settlements

Hello!

I'm playing Sims Settlements 3-in-1 vs. 4.2.5. I've been working my way down the Advanced Industrial tech tree. Reading old posts from a year or two ago, people had commented that you used to need to build the pre-reqs for an Advanced Industrial plot in the same settlement (for example, to upgrade to Nuclear Enrichment you needed the hazardous waste processor in that settlement first). However, I also read that since then, a mechanic was added to allow progress to be shared. So if I have a hazardous waste processor in one settlement I can upgrade to nuclear enrichment in all my other settlements.

Is that the case? I completed the Hazardous Waste Adv. Industrial upgrade in Outpost Zimonja, but now am unable to upgrade an Iron Mine to anything other than a Steel Mill in Sunshine Co-op. Is there a setting or an in-game quest I need to complete to share that progress to other settlements?

Thanks!
 
I've had to have certain things in the same settlement to build other things. For example, to build a Filtration plant I needed the coal pit initially in the same settlement. After that, however, I could get rid of the coal.

So I think you need them in the same settlement to unlock something the first time, but then you can build wherever.
