![]() You can stack dams on top of levees to make dams that run a bit higher off the riverbed (thus letting you properly dam a deeper river).Įxperiment with the water physics. Meanwhile Levees are just solid blocks that will fully hold back water until they overflow.īoth block types can be built on top of (although I don't think you can put dams on top of other dams in any case paths will usually be what you want early on to get access to both river banks). You'll need to research things like Levee, Stairs, Platform, and Floodgates to accomplish this.ĭam building ultimately becomes the game's true standout interesting and unique mechanic.ĭams will block water from passing up to a certain level (around half or three quarters of their height I think), meaning that water can still pass through that block only after the water level has risen a bit on the upstream side. Dam will retain water for your pump and keep farms watered through drought.īuild storage for water and food to create a bigger buffer for mistakes and sudden population increasesįor subsequent droughts, top priority is making a bigger dam to retain even more water and create deep reservoirs filled with water. Pull farmers out of farmhouse when carrots are planted so they don't idle, and put them into building the dam. Put down lumberjack camp so you have material to build stuff + put down gathering post so your beavers can eat berries before your farm is set upĮstablish water income: one pump will be enough for starting beaver populationįarmhouse + carrot zone for steady food incomeĭAM <- rest of logs go into building a dam. The number 1 priority is making sure the water sticks around for the entire length of the drought, so your food and water income can continue undisrupted. Okay so storing food/water is not the way to survive drought. ![]() and plant those maples as soon as you can.ĭont build lumberpiles at the start, thats bait and they are unnecessaryĪfter that you look for other large bodies of the map that you can build dams and levies to store water long term. Research stairs/small platform and forester first. Small population under a dozen until you have a forrester, pump, warehouse, farm, power wheel and plank maker and you have a simple river dam. large water storage infrastructure only really comes into play when you are on hard and have 29 day droughts and have to worry about evaporation. 1 or 2 small water containers is all you need. its to make it so you can keep harvesting and pumping water through the drought. have stockpiles of water and food to last through. it will retain water that you can continue to pump from for drinking water and the river will keep surrounding land irrigated. water will overflow and continue as normal but when the first drought comes the water will stop and drain off the map, but if you have a simple 1 tile high dam section physically in the river itself. pause when you start and take a good look at the terrain layout, figure out where you want to put your first 1 tier dam. Alternatively pestilence and famine caused by a disease necessitating isolating your beavers and insects eating all or disease killing one type of crop where you have to remove all of your crops to starve them out would make a interesting challenge and discourage mono-culture.Ĥ/5 a wonderful game looking forward to the full release.Next map. ![]() The building missing resources warning needs to be integrated to the hauling system to give those items priority and "Prioritize building by haulers" need to be split in to prioritize removal and/or delivery.Ī lot of the challenge disperses after the second cycle, while i don't think more water in the already existing river would pose a challenge just demolish some dams to improve flow, a second river or rainfall making water appear everywhere would be a challenge. It is sometimes easier and faster to make a plantation and a carpenter on site than to wait for the beavers to randomly haul some planks to a far away outpost to make some stairs. The hauling system is the biggest source of frustration currently in the game. Made some luxurious beaver housing and got unlimited cosmic power! Behind a seven tile tall dam. Nothing wrong about making some plantations just had to dig channels and clear some land with dynamite. I implemented a plan to drown the fish they never saw it coming. I had a lot of fun playing Timberborn however i feel like i am running out of stuff to do. ![]()
