[@przemekkozlowski7835]

I like to play the game on Lone Wolf so all this stuff is even more important since start with a single settler and only have a day before snow comes

[@SolutOdka]

Glad you find these tips useful :) !

[@upsaralemniscate8177]

Indeed very useful. I think a video on how to choose team members criteria would be nice also.

[@SolutOdka]

Hi Upsara ! Thank you. Good idea, I was having other thoughts for other videos, I will set up a vote on the channel community page and see what people would prefer the most :) !

@@SolutOdka Thanks! I just got the game a few hours ago and your tips have really helped!

[@TheDizzyBrownie]

Great content as always! What size do you recommend for vegetable fields, like cabbage, in the early days so that your workers aren't tied up farming all day long but still have enough to feed themselves?

[@SolutOdka]

Hi, this is a good question, and there is not really a straight forward answer. This would depend on several parameters with pro and cons. In essence for your colony pure consumption, you do not need too much resources, and if you have not prepared a cellar for food conservation, there is really no need to overproduce ! However, if you do not have good farming skill villagers, then it is good to produce in good quantities to improve the skills of your people (in that aspect, try not to plant all at the same time, rather by batches, so that you will also harvest by batches). Another parameter could be to consider having some fields to produce actual food, while other fields produce seeds (this takes longer to grow, but you can then grow your seed pool for the next year planting season: in this aspect it often try to harvest & buy all kind of seeds in the first year, so that i can grow a good pool of seeds for year 2). Also in case of blights, you could lose all your production if you were to have 1 big field, so better split into smaller fields (which is also in line with the concept to 'spreading over time' planting and harvesting). this also depends if you have researched the dried meat for example, and are having good stocks for winter. It can also be influenced on your research level in the alcohol tree, as you can use your produce to some extent this way as well. And if ever you end up during winter with a shortage of food, there are solutions to hunt wolves for example and get a good storage of meat to feed your village for the end of winter :). I hope this helps and you will enjoy this game as much as I do :) !

F me man, I'm trying so hard not to buy this game. But I can't help my self, I've just discovered it and I really want to play it. It seems extremely rimworld inspired

[@SolutOdka]

Hello, yes indeed this is very similar to Rimworld ! It is somehow a bit less advanced in some functionalities of the game as it is still in EA development, but it offers more in the sense that you have a 3D environment with upper and lower levels when building your castle !

[@pepebov35]

Very nice and instructive video, why don't you do a let's play ?

[@SolutOdka]

Hello pepe! Thank you very much. It is a good idea indeed, I did some let's plays on other games I covered, but I have often been waiting for official game release, so let see yeah :)!

[@guiseppeperceval4930]

Excellent, I've played for a while but learned a lot from this, thank you!!

[@SolutOdka]

Hello Giuseppe :) ! I'm glad to read you learned from this video guide, thank you :).

[@andyhughes800]

why didnt i unlock wooden beams when i made the research table?

[@SolutOdka]

Hi there. Upon construction of the research bench, you need to open the technology tree and unlock it there.

[@stevenholmes4322]

I don't have the option to grow redcurrant? how do you unlock?

[@HealthHappener]

You have to harvest some red currant to be able to plant it.

[@SolutOdka]

As replied below, you need a first harvest to 'discover' it :) !

this looks like a macro nightmare
