Detailed Notes
Fishing Dock
Fishing dock is essential for sustainable food production. Produces much more than foraging. Upgrade to maximize fish output.Food Value
Berries are good for trade but fish is better for sustained food supply. Fish provides better food stability and variety.Cotton
Cotton drains soil fertility heavily. Use crop rotation. Cotton is economically valuable but devastates soil if overused.Trees
Trees are renewable but take time to grow. Farm trees on depleted soil. Essential for long-term wood supply.Tier 1 Research
Tier 1 requires copper bars, unlocks mushroom cultivation, smoking nets, charcoal furnace, flax spinner, organized heating, smaller warehouses.Key Buildings
Sawmill (logs to planks), weaver (flax to clothing), smoker (fish to smoked fish). Each building enables further production chains.Bread Chain
Wheat to flour to bread is high quality food. Bread gives extra carry capacity. Game-changer for food stability.Clothing
Clothing is essential, especially in winter. Weaver produces robes from flax. Tailored cloaks for premium quality.Cafe
Cafe improves dining quality. Nearly negates negative effects of fish as food. Build near dining hall.Tax Resources
Tax collector accepts gold ore, copper, coal, cotton, fish, trinkets as payment. Gold ore = highest value.Winter Prep
Stockpile food AND wood for winter. Campfires require 3 logs each. Prepare substantial reserves before cold weather.Production Optimization
Enable overtime strategically for production boosts. Pause buildings to focus on priorities. Balance all production chains.
