Overview[]
The player must have completed Assemble Dee-Dee Transport.
Required stations[]
The player must have the following to complete this mission:
- Level 1 Assembly Station
- Stone Furnace
- Grinder
- Civil Cutter
- Basic Skiver
Conduct of the mission[]
Immediately after completing the first Assemble Dee Dee Transport commission, this mission becomes available. Antoine instructs the player to seek Mayor Gale about constructing some road signs.
Talk to Gale[]
| | Ah, there you are. Thank you for your help on completing the transport. Now that we have the vehicle, we need some stop signs to show folks where they can get on and off. |
|---|
| | For the initiation of the system, I want 5 Dee-Dee Stops. I'm commissioning you to build and place 3 of them. What do you say? |
|---|
| Thank you! I'll take the commission! |
| | Now that I think about it, you probably don't have the necessary handbook diagram for this item. You need to go to the Research Center and talk with Petra, she should be able to help you. |
|---|
A new mission becomes available: Diagram for Dee-Dee Stop.
Diagram for Dee-Dee Stop[]
- Main article: Mission: Diagram for Dee-Dee Stop
A separate mission to obtain the diagram for the Dee-Dee Stop begins as soon as the player accepts this mission.
Place the Dee-Dee Stop[]
This article needs more images. You can help add it.
Once the player has obtained the diagram, the player can begin building the Dee-Dee Stops. Three Dee-Dee Stop are required to complete the mission:
| Level 1 Assembly Station Level 1 Assembly Station | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Blueprint | Materials | Sell price | |
|
| 480 | |
There are five available locations throughout Portia:
- Peach Plaza Stop
- Tree Farm Stop
- Portia Harbor Stop
- Research Center Stop
- Amber Island Stop
Upon placing at least three of the stops and reporting back to Gale:
| | You have already placed the Dee-Dee stops? That's very efficient, here's your commission fee. With the new Dee-Dee stops, traveling around this area will be much more convenient. |
|---|
Post-conduct[]
Once the player has placed at least two stops, the player can travel between the stops for quicker travel through the Dee-Dee Transport System. More Dee-Dee Stops become available by meeting certain criteria; though there is no reward for placing the Dee-Dee Stops in those locations other than being able to travel to the stop.
Rewards[]
Experience +600
Gols +100
Reputation +40

NPC comments about the Dee-Dees[]
Some characters will comment while this mission and / or Assemble Dee-Dee Transport are in progress:
| | Unlike a lot of the other folks around here, I think I'll still be walking even after the Dee-Dees come online. |
|---|
| | While I'm all for the Mayor spending money to make our town better, I think there are better options than a Dee-Dee system. I rode them in Atara before...not a smooth ride if you ask me. |
|---|
| | I hope more people will show up in Portia once the transportation system is complete. That way, I can sell more flowers. |
|---|
| | If you ask me, I'd take a horse over a piece of metal any day of the week. But that's just me. |
|---|
| | I think the Dee-Dee system will be great for our town. It'll greatly increase our commerce, to say of nothing else. And I don't have to walk anymore! Walking too much isn't good for my complexion. |
|---|
| | I hope the prices for raw materials can come down a bit once the transports come into service. |
|---|
| | I saw the diagrams for the Dee-Dees, they're so small! They won't be able to carry anything of size! |
|---|
| | If we get this transportation system in place, I can go out farther to buy fresh produces!(sic) |
|---|
| | When Molly and I go joyriding on the transports, it'll be no boys allowed! |
|---|
| | Are you going to be the one building the new Dee-Dees? I can't wait! |
|---|
| | The Mayor has agreed to give us an interview about the Portia transport system. If we frame it right, we'll get a lot of readers for this story. |
|---|
| | I hope the transportation system works out. I've invested a lot of capital on this project. From what I hear though, I have the town's support. |
|---|
| | Papa has been very excited about the new transportation system. He said that I would be able to take it to go farther than just walking. I can't wait to try it out! |
|---|
| | I rode the Dee-Dees in Atara before, they're slow and uncomfortable. Still better than walking, I guess. |
|---|
| | So the Mayor finally decided to implement his transportation system after all these years. |
|---|
| | I hope when the Mayor's transportation system opens, there will be more people coming here to buy my sister's flowers. |
|---|
| | I really hope Gale knows what he's doing. I know the transports will help with Portia's economy...but I don't know, what if they explode or something? |
|---|
| | Maybe I should throw my name into the hat to become a Dee-Dee driver. |
|---|
| | My kids don't get to see a lot of vehicles out here. They see the long distance buses and boats, an occational(sic) plane, but that's about it. I tried to tell them that there are more vehicles in Atara, but they have a hard time imagining it. |
|---|
| | Maybe I can get a side job as a Dee-Dee driver. That way I can bring in some extra cash. |
|---|
| | I'm looking forward to the transportation system. I hope more will people show up to my bakery when it's done. |
|---|
| | Who wants to ride transports? Horses are still the best! |
|---|
| | I'm writing a major article for the Portia transport system, I hope it gets published in the Atara Times. |
|---|
| | Why are towns people excited about a Dee-Dee transport? The ancients had vehicles that went 1000 klicks an hour, on the ground! Imagine that! |
|---|
| | Dolly and I have already planned to go joyriding on the Dee-Dees once they're operational! It'll be so fun, I'm sure of it! |
|---|
| | I see, so the Mayor is trying to implement the Dee-Dee system that Atara developed. This will be great! More stranger wares will show up for me to snatch up! |
|---|
| | I have some reservations about a transportation system. The one being used in Atara creates quite a bit of pollution. |
|---|
| | I hear that we'll have metal horses in our town soon. I wonder if they're friendly. |
|---|
| | I still think it's more manly to walk. I don't trust a piece of machine welded together with relics from the past...no offense to you. |
|---|
| | I think the Dee-Dees will really improve our lives! If nothing else, it's a demonstration of the good use of ancient technology. |
|---|
| | Hmm, with the Dee-Dees, I guess I can finally travel around the Portia countryside. The surrounding areas are quite pretty, I'm told. |
|---|
| | I can't wait for the Dee-Dees to be implemented. I've read in newspapers about how these transports helped Atara prosper. |
|---|
| | I have been working with the Mayor to draft up the Dee-Dee plans. The city will be in the red for a while, but we think it'll pay for itself quite quickly. |
|---|
| | I hope the transports don't scare all the fish away with their sounds. |
|---|
| | Everyone in town's excited about the transport system. I'm looking forward to it as well! |
|---|
| | Gale has wanted this transportation system ever since he was it demonstrated in Atara. |
|---|
| | I hope my fellow Corps officers don't get lazy with their patrols once the Dee-Dees start operating. |
|---|
| | I never liked exercising. Now, with the Dee-Dees, I don't even have to walk. I like it! |
|---|
| | How did the Mayor save up so much money for a transport system? If he had that much money, he should have just given all the citizens a holiday bonus. Wouldn't that be nice! |
|---|
| | Everyone's talking about some new transportation thing. I don't know what they're talking about! |
|---|
| | I heard the Mayor is building a cross city transportation system! It's suppose to be some wicked technology from the past! Maybe a robot will be the driver! |
|---|
| | I wonder how much pollution the transports will cause. Will the downsides be worth the effort? |
|---|
| | What's the commotion about some land vehicles being put into use? They're so inelegant compared to boats. |
|---|
| | I wonder at what times the transport Dee-Dees will run. Sometimes I work very late when I'm out in the field. |

NPC comments after the Dee-Dee Transport system is complete[]
Some characters will comment on the Dee-Dee Transport system after the player completes both this mission and Assemble Dee-Dee Transport:
| | I take back what I said about the Dee-Dees before, now that they're operational, I've never been late to a date again! |
|---|
| | I can't believe Gale made the transport fares free! Now that's a Mayor I can get behind. |
|---|
| | I was right! I was hoping these new transports would be able to help me deliver wood. But nope, too small. Guess Aadit and I will still deliver by hand, yikes. |
|---|
| | I see that most people are pretty happy with the result with the Dee-Dees. |
|---|
| | The towns folk(sic) were a little apprehensive of the Dee-Dees before hand, but they're now almost all onboard now! I'm glad! |
|---|
| | I rode on a Dee-Dee the other night, it was fabulous! I wonder what else they have in Atara that we can implement? |
|---|
| | I suppose if we not arming those Dee-Dees for war or something, we're not breaking any Church doctrine. |
|---|
| | Well, I applied as a driver for the Dee-Dee, but turns out I'm a pretty bad driver. So that's no-go. |
|---|
| | That Mayor made the metal transport fares free! Is he trying to steal my ranch business?! |
|---|
| | Have you rode the Dee-Dee yet? What do you think? Terrific right? |
|---|
| | I took a ride on a Dee-Dee the other day, it's actually safer than I expected. |
|---|
| | I rode on top of the metal horse yesterday, it was like surfing on the waves. |
|---|
| | What did I tell you? The Dee-Dees are awesome, right? |
|---|
| | It's just like Gale to make the Dee-Dees free for everyone. I'm not against the idea, but we'll have to pay for it somehow. |
|---|
| | I rode on the Dee-Dee the other day, and let me tell you! It's worse than riding on a horse, made my hair fly all over the place! |
|---|
| | The Dee-Dees turned out to be glorified tricycles, I'm so disappointed! I don't know what I expected! |
|---|
