just wanted to let you know as you didn't mention it that if you click on some of the buildings ie hunter there is a circle like icon second from top that you can change the area that they work in ,also when the wells run dry if you wait they do start working again I have found. Thanks for all the helpful videos I found the valhiem ones fantastic
To expand on Cherie's point, you don't need to place the forager (hunter, etc) exactly where the resource is because you can move the work area after the building is up. You can locate the building somewhere convenient (hopefully not too far away from the resources, to cut down travel time) When you are repositioning the work area the game shows you icons of what is available in that area. You may want to concentrate on a specific resource such as willow or medicinal plants, etc. you can of course do this at any point in the game, when your priorities change.
With regards to the Farming part, adding the sand and clay option is to the entire field and not each individual crop cycle. i.e. if you choose to get it into the green area for one crop another crop may have a different requirement of sand/clay so therefore you need to either: 1. Average it out to get close for all crops you have in the field or 2. Choose crops with similar requirements or 3. Only make it in the green for one/more of the crops.
So basically... *Banished:* _Just set up everything with common sense and you'll be fine._ *Forest Village:* _Set up everything but remember there's Pirates about and also remember to build nearby, people die walking back home!_ *Ostriv:* _Hey I'm a bit more difficult because of trading... But mostly I was here to have better graphics than the previous two..._ *Farthest Frontier:* _You wanna play a new city building strategy game as you relax on the weekends? I DON'T THINK SO._
A bit of an update when talking about Storage, if you may: - A Stockyard takes Raw and Produced Materials, that the Warehouse can't take. Hence the need for both and their individual strategic placements;
For the buildings that contain a radius (Forager, Hunter, etc), you can change where that "area" is after the building is built. The only reason to put your building closer to its area of responsibility to to shorten the travel time, as more travel time means less efficient gathering. So when you mention around 7:50-8:00 that you "don't want to put it close to the water because you'll be wasting some of the area", that's incorrect. One suggestion for that you could put to the devs - after you place a building, that has a targetable work area, you should also get to set the work area (even if the building isn't built yet). Makes it more intuitive rather than your line of thinking.
Food spoiling? Uncheck the small tick boxes in the market for all food and change worker, he will no longer be hoarding all your food which spoils a lot faster in the market. Just be sure to have root cellars near your houses. If you don´t change worker he/she will not obey the tick boxes, at least for me it only worked once I changed whomever was in charge. You can´t turn the market completely off as you of course need those tax dollars.
You cannot set individual soil mixture configurations for each crop. The soil configuration is fixed for the entire field. So the best strategy is to find the sweet spot where all crops will receive the 10% bonus. If thats not possible with the given types of crops seeded, those need to be changed or youd need to reconfigure the soil mixture whenever the crop's needs change.
Picked this up after watching your vid. This is perfect for my laptop; keep me out of the bar while traveling for work! XD Nice guide, perhaps a tad too much data thrown out VERY quickly. I'll just come back to it once I screw up a few times. Thx.
You're welcome, hope you enjoy it. I think it's a great laptop game when you're travelling actually, good idea! 🙂 Also thanks for the feedback on the vid 🙂
I didnt know you could build so close to deer. I was under the impression that if you get rid of trees or build buildings near them they don't respawn.
Thanks for the guide. Have liked and subbed. Just bought this game an hour ago so the guide will be really useful. I was going to load up the old Civ 4, Sim City or Skylines and thought to look at what new games are out.
@Santas Whisky Sim City 4. My game from childhood. I got it when I was in middle school. I still love it. But the real deal that set me "straight" was Sim City 2000. I was in awe when I was watching, over the shoulder, senior students ready for highschool. I was a little prick, in middle school, drooling over at the sigh of that beauty.
The compost yards don't appear to work. They just get filled up and the compost doesn't get used. I had to keep building compost yards because once they are full the worker won't collect waste anymore. I found the best solution is to destroy them as soon as they get full and build another one.
When the compost yard is full you can use the compost on your crop fields. An Icon should appear on the compost yard, and you can choose the field to receive the compost.
@@Kysen my pleasure mate, it wears a little thin when youtubers forget the videos are about the game, not about them. You pack more info into 15 minutes than most of them do in an hour. Great work, and I'm enjoying the game.
@@guswrethman2156 means a lot mate because I got into UA-cam tutorials because it annoyed me how many UA-camrs do exactly what you said! So I try my best not to, thanks for the support! 🙂
Good Job! Helps a lot to get started. Thank you for that! Maybe slow down your Talking and Explanation a bit. Stressed me out sometimes. But definitely better than all the nonsense Talking in some other Guides and Tutorials.... but dont get me wrong: You did an awesome Job here. About the Game: I think you can change the Areas where your Gatherer/Hunter/etc do their Work (the yellow Circle top left in the Building popup). So , I guess, you dont need to worry to much about placements.
i got the game yesterday and i already got issues with food.. i got 4 forages, 2 fish places. i got a underground storage for food and a smoker for the fish.. only 8 houses just like you and my food always lies on 1.. and some people are starving the game says.. i dont understand whats wrong cause when i check the fish place it states it has 50 fishes in it.. i also tried farming but i dont understand how that works either.
Morning Kysen, just wanted to say that I dont agree with the way you spread out your residences, the problem with that is when it comes to increasing desirability you have to spend more to cover the housing area because they do have a limited area and the parks and shrines you first use to increase this number are very expensive gold wise, so you need to think the desirability cost
Hi... So I've been glitching is guess. Though I have plenty of food 4 or 5 or even 11 12 bread protein,fruits and veg the ppl keep dying of starvation? Is it a glitch or am I doing something seriously wrong?
What i would like to see from this genre is to advance the boring automation that always ends up looking like a cross between SimCity and Age of Empires. By that i mean i like to see a start with just one player ourselves and then we need to accumulate wealth to hire new people to inhabit a future town/city.I like to move around at ground level view and not the typical overhead puny character view. This game like so many is like a small easy to make Indie game not nearly enough going on to warrant buying a new game that is similar to so many previous games.
Many Valheim is a game for you then. As far as I know it's 1st person, you build your house up to a city, physics play a role in building, you have to do practically everything on your own^^
Hello I am having a problem in version 7.6. I am currently in year 6 with a level 2 town center and a relatively small town. I am not able to advance because my grocers refuse to work at the market and all my food supposedly being sold is spoiling. My main concern is that there is no gold being produced to keep services going and to be able to advance. Could you give me a solution to this? Thanks
For some reason in the storage section in the building menus. I don't have that wagon storage, I don't even have the greyed out icon of it. Is it locked to a map location or game mode ? I picked the standard mode and the hills maps I think
How do you prioritize harvesting resources like wood ? I am constantly lacking wood as my people don't seem to want to go chopping wood even though I've assigned a bunch of tree to be harvested and even prioritized them ? Also is there a way to see which buildings you have already built ?
Is it worth to buy this game... I'm fan of strategy games but some strategy games city buildings you will enjoy it for a days and then you will get bored of it
It's still early in development so they may add a lot more to this game. So far I've really enjoyed it but idk how long you could play it for before getting a bit over it because I've only had the game for 1 day so far
I bought this game yesterday and I have been trying it out. It has the occasional bug but the AI does a good job of correcting itself whenever there seems to be an issue. If you like Banished, you'll like this game. It's really complex when it comes to managing population happiness, upgrading, population health, and resource balancing. If you want a hardcore, realistic city building strategy game, then this will work for you. My advice is to be patient with learning it though. I've been playing for about 16 hours now and I understand the basics now.
help pls 1 of my villagers got attacked by wildlife, I selected some other to help fight it and now theyre just standing idle, how can I get them back to work?
Left click it then in the top right of the GUI hit 'Salvage Building' if the road has been built or just the house with an x on it if you haven't built the road yet
Wow! Had to subscribe, but I do admit this video has a lot to take in at first viewing. I have also watched videos that were under 5 minutes long and they seemed to be focused on getting watchers to send money. If the plea for money was taken out of the video, you have maybe 2 minutes of information about the game. Not very helpful, so I am thinking 15 minutes would likely be about right if the content is limited to "Do this first, and then that". Of course I will be returning to this video for more advice and ideas.
"Incredibly fun?" hmmm idk does the game offer anything unique to what we have already seen for years?Well let's watch and see these tips.The biggest problem with EVERY new game is that all of the UA-cam content creators are just drooling at the sight of something to make money from with their new videos so it makes it VERY tough to ever get honest information on new games.
I have a choice on thousands of games I could cover though, I only choose ones I enjoy and promote ones I think are enjoyable. The game developers don't pay me anything to make a vid on the game. So I can assure you I'm honest when I give my opinion on a game 🙂
Yeah, need lots of time for best tips like put the hunter where the deer is and put the fisher where the fish is. I wouldn't have come up with that by myself.
i dont think its to long or too much bla bla, but u have to take a breath from time to time. :p A pause of 1 or 2 seconds between what u say would be easier to listen to.. now its a 22 minute long monolog in one breath :)

You gotta let their population grow sometimes for sustainable food 🙂
Why didn't zou start with farm maintanance. Even though the growing season was too short you could've reduced weeds and rocks for the next season.
Great video bro.
Imma gonna sink in lots of hours on this little peaceful game.
Thank you! haha have fun! :)
Great content. Would love to see an in-depth farming guide. Balancing weed reduction and soil fertility needs to be explored.
Working on it now :)
Great video! Definitely helped take the learning curve off of this game!
Glad it helped! :)
