stavation.

hi. i seam to be in a fammin. i cant seam to brake this fammin.
i havea stuff that should be produceing food yet its not enough aprently.

i also have 40+ tech reserach yet nothing being reserached. which seam odd.

it woudl be nice if ther was more information, o the food screan.

forinstance how much you are producing in clear UI and a clrear indcation on how much you are useing.

it seam that i currently have no idea how much food i'm producing and i have no idea how ot find this information.
yet i cant find more resorces to havest. i cant plant more food. i cnat expeant my farms and that jsut dotn sema propper. even in romon time thay knew about grain and recorce mamangment.

you dont eat more thne you need to re -sow your feild.

yet hear i am in a sistuation wher i cnat fidn out why my 3 lore masters are produciong 0 Knolage.

and my farmer cant seam to grow enough food. its like

you cant seam to foreage every where.... in essence i've havign troble

i'm not posative how ot fix this troble and i'm stuck.

ive only found one sorce for iorn, i have have ot kinda stay wher i am. but my cow ranch,me farmer and my bee keepers cant stave off famin.

any advice would be nice.

Have you watched some of the youtube videos on how to play the game. That really helps in understanding what to research and build first.

Food is the most important thing in the first year and one farmer won't support your settlement. It sounds like you're trying to go in too many directions at once. Focus on food and timber. And remember that winter is almost half a year so you need plenty by the end of September because all but berry gathering stops then.

I suggest that for those people who are confused about the mechanics of the game.. you watch Quill18 or a few others.

And don't get discouraged. One of the first game fixes is the ability to play at different levels.

hmm. so in esence get some explores/savoror out fast to look for berry bushes/ farm land. if you dotn have ample near by, move your camp to them, unless you can get a watch tower there first??

tech then is getting cutstone via the wood or deposits paths dependign on location. and amping up your food income.

ive been working mostly on tech income like i normaly do in 4X games. but you alwasy have to adapt to differnt game so that fine.

but mostly i tihnk i'll need to watch more yourtuber or hit my head agensta brick wall and learn the heard way. ether works as long as i feel ive goten some place.

i still feel the food screen need to be more detailed.
a list of food use and what beign produced woudl be much better. that way you can see what would be availabe.

thanks for the input.
given me much to think about. so thanks again for that.
