I was completely stuck in a campaign level in this yesterday. The weapon maker was getting delivery of silver extremely slowly. I could be waiting for between an hour to half hour for him to get one silver and I was hours on there without having a big enough army to move on to go to a relic on the north west of the map. There was 32 silver in the storehouse available so there was no reason for this.
You mean iron? Presumably you were having a problem with your carriers. You have to have enough carriers free. Once you get to 300 population you want to unlock the ability for your carriers to be able to use carts on dirt roads. Or upgrade the roads. Too much work otherwise and it will slow down your economy
Just a comment on your thoughts re multiple warehouses: I'm still new to the game, so may have misunderstood the in-game tutorial and how I've seen it work in the campaign, but I think the way you would get around the automatic reapportioning of resources would be to set the relevant resource in one of the warehouses to a minimum value. The settlers will still shuffle resources between 2 warehouses, but will make sure you have at least the amount you set in warehouse "b", which would be the one closest to where you want to build. Or am I missing something?
Also, just a bit of feedback: good video with plenty of information in it, although I'd argue that it's a comprehensive tutorial, not a simple one as the title says! However, when you're recording a session, please don't keep moving the cursor rapidly from side to side when you're trying to show an area on the map. On console, it has the effect of shaking the whole screen, which is quite hard to watch for those of us who are a bit older and may have trouble with our eyes, etc. :) Hope that helps!
In terms of the warehouse you are correct this would make sense. The mechanic in game doesn’t work that way yet though :( I’ve suggested the other way around (set a maximum) to see if that works better. Always appreciate the feedback too :) will keep it in mind for any future videos. I have the game on pc now so might make the recording process smoother. Can also do a video longer than an hour so that will make my life easier :)
@@Killerdave1991 Thanks, an hour is probably plenty from a viewer's perspective! Might be better to either either break it up into more manageable chunks or add chapters to make it easier to navigate. Your call though, of course. Edit: would appreciate more console specific content too, as there isn't a lot of it about, particularly for this game, which appears to have been shunned by the PC community and/or long-time Settlers fans. Keep up the good work!
@@timbader898 every video so far was from a ps5 perspective. Gameplay is practically the same. I do prefer ps5 over pc. Only problem is you can’t click the map you have to physically drag everywhere. Tip I found helpful though is to mark a warehouse or whatever so you can move the camera to it for much better speed if you get dragged away for a notification
@@Killerdave1991 That's OK, I was just trying to be encouraging to keep doing the PS5 content! That sounds like a good tip: How do you mark a building? Another tip for general map movement I found last night, is if you press L2+R2 to open the larger map view, then map scrolling is a lot faster while it's open. So you can open the view, scroll where you want, and then close the view again, for longer distances.
Pc and console are near enough the same outside of controls. So 3 factions currently on both and not heard of any plans for any more. They are still updating and working on the game , even if communication is awful and presumably with those updates will be more maps too
great videos. i just got the game and there is a lot to learn.
Definitely :) big learning curve for pvp
Your tuturial was very helpful, thank you, still dont know which is best way to place them fishing huts though 😂
Me neither lol. But as long as you have 1 hut per 2 spots , you should be good

Are there more than 3 factions on PC and are they still doing updates and are they going to add more factions and maps for console
