[@jacksonstarky8288]

Every time RCE talked about water in this episode, I found myself telling my computer screen "RCE, you need more water storage... remember how close to empty it was at the end of the last dry season, and you're turning another breeding pod on."

[@jacksonstarky8288]

RCE also needs to decide where his stairs are going where he's stacking the storage buildings... because right now it looks like he's not planning for that. Without a way up to them, platforms aren't much good.

[@Bullsquid592]

maybe, but the dam is more efficient and has more water to start with now so it might be ok.. for a few extra seasons i reckon

[@notoriousgoblin83]

[@thecodfish8733]

the way Matt seems to function is to create some water storage at the beginning and then never expand it, and just use dam systems to replenish his green areas

[@HeatStroke69]

I strongly recommend replacing the last dams with floodgates to keep all the water in, because you're starting the droughts with nearly half the water gone. You could then have stairs going through the water to reconnect the 2 sides and get some wet fur buff at the same time. Beavers love to be wet 💦🦫

[@solidXxXtuna]

+1 My thought as well

[@dragonking528]

You are a genius

[@007narufan]

with the last pool of water, I had a glitch where it wouldn't hold water given from a reservoir, moving the damns away from the edge by 1 block seemed to deal with it and I didn't lose water. also haulers in the latest update are essential for so much, since the builders don't move goods around anymore, so the log pumpers stop pumping their logs to take water to the storage, that's just one example

[@HamadaHamada-qx9bx]

Beat me to it I found that glitch as well what’s weird is it only effects it when you let water put it works fine during wet season.

[@dunawolf8262]

Hey Matt, kolrabi grows so fast that before the beavers are done harvesting the field, new ones finish growing already. Meaning half your field never gets harvested. You can use that real estate to grow another food

[@TC-cq7oc]

There's some analogy to be made between Matt's Timberborn society and an office job. Everything that comes in comes in at the highest priority, but headcount stays the same and all the older tasks still need to be done.

[@solidXxXtuna]

Yeah, everything on high priority means there's no such thing as high priority. Only normal priority, then lower, low, very low and NEVER DO THIS JOB. Much better to handle that by deprioritizing other jobs so you still have the option of super high priority for emergencies.

You should place a small water barrell next to the log pumpers. It will increase their production significantly. Let the haulers carry it to the big storage later.

[@OnTheNerdySide]

I haven't played in awhile, but I always used this strategy. Does putting other small water storages near workplaces make any difference? I used to have a few right near their housing and a few dotted around near workplaces so they didn't have to go far for water during the day.

[@jesselee8963]

@@OnTheNerdySide it might. That is smart and logical and that should be how it works. Hopefully RCE sees this.

[@JuanRodriguez-gg2qz]

Yeah, he should build the resource storage next to the correct resource production buildings, and you can even use haulers to transport said resources / food to where people are working for even more productivity.

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

@@OnTheNerdySideI think it makes a difference to put water storage next to buildings that use water such as the breeding pods. Beyond that beavers should go to the closest available water source when they get thirsty so having water storages near all your job clusters would cut down on commute.

[@horuswasright]

If you have hau,ers it doesn't matter, haulers will carry water from the pump to storage

[@Santi_90]

Matt you should exploit those beavers during the wet season. 20 hrs work shift it is fine

[@HenryAshman]

A useful tip for handling power is the barracks and row houses can transport power, which is useful for dealing with verticality, as you need fewer elevated shafts.

[@etherkye2]

You know you can platform over the water and build on that? Would be useful to build over the bottom of the river and put a large log storage there as that's where you're cutting them down

[@onemanzu]

Don’t end this series until you get all three large beaver statues. That’s always a brilliant ending spot.

[@brendenhawley2225]

Or until everything you build is on metal plate forms and the entire ground is either food, logs or water. Peak efficiency.

[@Johnyisme]

Great idea

[@zorco8768]

You should place floodgates at the end and in the middle so you can store more water (up to 0.99 instead of 0.65). But it will require some micromanaging in order to fill it completely (there is mod that can help with that).

[@Zecko19]

This comment needs to reach Matt! Frustrated me while RCE is flabbergasted that damns with holes loose water. Evaporation works in 0.045 per non-flowing block of water, about 22 days for a 0.99 block More depth is better than more surface.

[@meltormeyham]

The tetris bit was fantastic.. good job to you and your editor!

[@MrDanAng1]

On this small map, the platforms to support the pumps should be on the inside of the dam, not the outside. In fact, the entire dam could be essentially platformed over to create space for buildings.

TIMBERBORNERS HAS NOW OFFICIALLY BEEN DECLARED THE BEST SERIES IN RCE MATT CHANNEL HISTORY , Poly bridge being in close second

[@timrudd3318]

I went and bought this game the other day, and I now have massive respect for what you do here. It's not as easy as you make it look

[@Karboluk]

Water on the lowest pond drying out when you try to fill it- I've seen this happen (specifically on this map, same as you). I think it's to do with the dams being on the edge of the map, but I haven't tested it. if you feather the floodgates instead of letting a big surge out it works well, the big wave you let go (which is what I did) seems to be the issue and sucks the water out of the low pond. Remember that your 1/2 tile water pools will only last 10 days, so making your river deeper (dynamite or levees) will be important. 2 or 2.5 voxels deeps will last out the longest droughts.

[@exojzz]

Proof that timberborners is the best series on the internet. Timberborners are beavers, Pokémon equivalent of beaver is bidoof. What more do you need?

[@jj6595]

8:56 I started a new save file when you started this season of timberborners. On this same map. I ran into the same water storage issue too. Water doesn’t stay within the dams. If you try to refill the water by opening the floodgates during a dry season, the water just creates a wave and it all flows out the dam. Just like what happened in the video. The dams should keep at least 2/3 of a block of water. Another issue I ran into is that if you close your flood gates, it affects all the water after the floodgate. The water level just magically reduces to near empty or completely empty. The dams don’t preserve the water. Only on this map have I come across these issues.

[@downtownredneck5079]

You are wasting space with the water pumps on the dam, you should really be putting the supports in the water to free up green space for plants. ALSO get ready for 20+ days of drought really soon. I've been doing the same challenge on the same map and you are on the edge of a employee and supply chain crisis. I had the same problem you are heading towards so keep an eye open on those two things. Love the beaver game videos. :)

[@zeberto1986]

You could do with a 1 hight flood gate for the bottom water pond. This way you can fill it rather than loose half the water at the start of the drought.

[@marxmaiale9981]

Definitely work toward Dynamite. Blast 'Puddles' near the edges in the lakes to hold water and keep things hydrated for a bit longer.

[@johonn]

I just had a thought about the water sloshing out of the lower section of river - what if you put 1-high floodgates at the edge of the map so you can raise them up to full height when you're wanting to refill that area? I've seen the same problem with water leaving that section when I'm playing this map. Although, for me, it's just trees near there so I'm not super worried if they go dry since they last so long. Might be a different story when I get to 30-day droughts though...

[@lapisanyta]

I hate to be pessimistic for 4 episodes in a row, but still somethings to point out: 1. The water depletion in 8:55 is a known bug and I had posted it in the feedback forum months ago. When water flows through dams/floodgates, they are actually letting more water than expected to pass and ended up with a lower water level. When you build multiple levels of dams/floodgates, the bug gets magnified so it is nearly impossible to keep the lowest level wet during dry season - most water you try to replenish into the river will just get drained out right away. My solution is to build a water dump right under the reservoir, it will be just enough to keep the river flowing during the dry season, and try not to touch the floodgates at all - in fact I just used dams in my latest run. 2. The farm was too big and the forest was too small. After you built engine(s), there won't be enough logs until THE end. You need 4 farmhouses to keep this size of farmland running, but that's too much food for current population, so plant more trees to kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Mangrove trees are your best choice at this stage. (I've said this already in previous episode, seems like Matt missed my comment) 3. Actually everything else was just fine, but be aware of you water storage. Better build some medium tanks now, before you start running out of logs.

[@captaindelta43]

I like how Matt is an engineer who's great at building stuff, but like a true engineer is horrible at job management 😂, like everything is high priority, workers or beavers are over worked , the necessary supplies like water and food are always overlooked 😅😂. Just what makes these series more interesting

[@fallatiuso]

You know what you should do? Create a district with no houses or conveniences, with only shaming wheels that are connected to your main district with powershafts and place your shamers there. (just use propaganda if someone asks where they lead to. _shhh_) That way they're of no use to their own district, which you can additionally shame them for, but their shaming is plenty of use to other districts. And if i recall they can still use materials from storages placed in another district if it's still within range, so if it's close enough they can still access food that will remain supplied, since it's connected to your main district, avoiding starvation without needing to connect the districts, allowing them to remain truly separate even by roads. (Additionally when you start building platforms to live on Shamestead/Shameworth should be out of sight near the bottom far away from the sun, supplied only by golems. Forgotten by all.)

[@PatrickM-dm6sf]

RCE, you should build an oil storage behind the press in the one free tile next to the fermenter, a lot of wasted steps

[@Beef4Dinner22]

I feel like there are lots of wasted steps all over the map.

[@tammyhollandaise]

I've noticed that the water seems to have strange momentum. Small fluctuations in a narrow channel can cascade into excess movement and drain a contained volume.

[@lorenztor1990]

I like to build a skyrise apartment building when playing Timberborn. It's easy with the folktails but could also work with the Iron Teeth as well, I've just never done it. I just like to stack a "circle" of Lodges all facing inwards towards each other with one missing on the bottom layer so a path can get in, then just stack the lodges one on top of the other using platforms and stairs to build up. Very small foot print and you can hold as many beavers as the game will let you stack building on top of each other.

[@solidXxXtuna]

Nilaus had a cool design for that. Very high apartment towers with gravity batteries built on top. Going to steal that in my next game.

[@familhagaudir8561]

8:50 Yep, in Diorama you have to be extremely careful with opening floodgates, otherwise you make a "wave" in the lower river and your water leaves the map. Once you unlock sluices in the 0.6 version this is no longer a problem.

[@gamernature]

Use Dynamite to make the river deeper to store more water.

[@-Termion-]

love how RCE didn't even realize he was in a drought

[@jase_allen]

5:20 The most efficient way to run the farms is to have 2 farm houses: One with planting prioritized and one with harvesting prioritized. That way both functions happen at the same time. It helps you allocate labor where it needs to go and maximize crop yields by minimizing the time a field is empty or full of harvestable crops. I find that 1 planter will keep up to 2 or even 3 harvesters.

[@jeffreyblack666]

How much benefit does that actually provide over simply having them prioritise planting?

[@sharnperdi6212]

Here's a hack to make dry areas green (only drawback is you need dynamite). Go to a dry area way back from the nearest grass (this gives you a radius of green of about 12-14 squares), put down dynamite and make a single tile hole. Then build a water dump on that hole. It will fill the hole with water and then stop using water until the water evaporates, which is slowed due to the fact that the water dump is partially covering the hole of water. This makes it use around 1-2 water per day to irrigate a huge area, as opposed to the 2 water per hour the irrigation tower needs, and also used half the area of the water tower.

[@zxuiji]

3:55, mods rce, mods, I particularly recommend the dam decor mod & the natural procreation mod (set iron teeth to spawn same way as folktales and lobs that flipping pod into the nether where it belongs). I've been using that decor mod to stack loads of rooftop terras above the houses with monuments further up and a few rooves in front of the smaller monuments. Have so much passive well being above the houses that I'm guaranteed a minimum of 20 well being no matter what I do to the active well being stuff. **Edit:** I see you have the decor mod but are under utilising it, shoulda researched the 2x3 levies 1st and saved yourself a bunch of wood.

"Prioritise harvesting" has only one case scenario when it is more effective : you know your farmland will soon be dry / contaminated / flooded. For people wondering which box they should tick by default. Other tip : early game you can plant your crop then pause the farm to use the workers elsewhere while it grows.

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

The comment: The best ratio for farmers is 2 harvesters for every planter. Matt: OK, we’ll make 2 of them planters and 1 harvester. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Anyway I’d noticed it too, it’s because every time your beavers pick something they have to take it back to store it, while planting beavers can just move from tile to tile. For similar reasons the foresters work much faster than lumberjacks. Also remember the hauling post.

[@sethcushman5454]

I remember at one point somebody modded in a "shaming wheel" that just made it easier to manage who was getting shamed. This would be much more complicated, but maybe somebody could also mod in a "Wheel of Honor" that looked different. If the beaver model of the worker was just raised to be walking on top of the wheel (and flipped 180 degrees so the wheel wasn't spinning backwards) then that might make a shaming wheel and a wheel of honor distinctively different. ideally there could even be one wheel that could be toggled between shaming and honor mode. I'm not a modder, but if someone who actually knows how to do this would actually like to go out of their way and put in all the effort to make such a mod, it might be cool.

[@OllieOnFire]

11:44 How could you be so callous as to insult your beavers like that? Ironteeth take great offense too the mention of "parents" as they're born out of tubes.

[@AlucardsBlood69]

You need haulers, you need to manage your priorities better. Get dynamite, make 1x1 holes that have a pump on it that dumps water, make it super low priority but prioritized by haulers and it will keep the area green without needing the river. Dynamite the river deeper/build more walls. Add mangroves to the areas you don't dynamite deeper in the river so you can get those foods. Get rid of all your birch, change to Oaks. Keep a few pines for when you eventually need them. Position your farmers more central, yes they take up green space but your one farmer location is so badly placed and useless.

[@jeffreyblack666]

I have never seen any point in prioritising harvesting. If you have farmers prioritising planting then harvest a crop and replant. If you have them prioritising harvesting, they harvest the entire field and only then do they replant, making them wait a long time for food to regrow between harvest cycles. If you have different farmers, with some prioritising planting and others harvesting, then either the harvesters go too fast and you are left with partly empty fields which delays food; or the planters go too fast, and then start harvesting anyway. The only possible benefit I see is if you time it just right so just as a planter finishes, the next plant is harvested and clear, so it walks straight there. But I think even then it just transfers the load. With this, a harvester goes to the plant, harvests and returns to storage, then goes to the next, and so on; while the planter just walks between crops. With just prioritising planting, the single farmer harvests the crop, returns it to the shed and goes back to the square to plant, then walks to the next crop. So no change in overall work.

I think you should add a floodgate right before the last damn and set it to seasonal to raise up at the start of a drought and lower during wet season. That way the dam works and you don't flood, but you still can manually shut off all water drain from the map

[@NtoV1995]

1:30 that explains the breeding pots

[@TiagoFreire]

The first dam is good, but not enough. You should also prepare another mega-megadam at the top of the mountain, before you reach 30 days droughts. Chop all wood at the top, make a 6-high wall, then use an automatic pump (6-high straw) to drop water on the lower dam on dry seasons.

[@RealAndySkibba]

Yes! Presumably Timberborn Monday is now a thing?

[@BreakingBad13]

If you want to optimize the efficiency of you buildings, you need to place storage next to them. For example water storage near water pumps. That way, worker beavers will only walk a few tiles to empty their building.

[@raxenladevaldak1749]

Matt really needs to learn how to prioritize better. Decide what actually needs to be done, set them higher, decide what is optional, set them lower. My farms and pumps are always max prioritized because those are two jobs you cannot live without, but besides those I try to keep things out of highest. Then if I need more workers, I reduce jobs at buildings that have more than one and they fill up where I decided I need them. Not perfect, but better than "set it all to highest and wonder why no one's at the job I wanted"

[@rodepet]

Could you use the barracks to build a damn? Are they water tight? And could you those horizontally build hanging platforms to build stuff between buildings that you can stack? Then you would be able to build the unstackable building on top of eachother and save space!

It's always amazing how you manage to build too much yet too little at the same time. It also makes it apparent that the game should punish you more for those errors like maybe upping building costs and requiring more time to demolish, or something like adding much higher start up costs to factories to make it so you always want to be producing a little rather than stopping and starting and having excessive storage. This could also incentivize hydro power.

@RealCivilEngineer You should look at replacing one or two of the dams at the end of your river with levies so you don't loose water when you let it out the top. Also try just opening one of your adjustable levies at the top, it looked like you were causing waves and that's why it was getting *lower* when you *released* water. Also why not just clear the land next to the central farmhouse and put another there and just remove the one on the side and plant there instead?
