Hi,
Is this normal? It seems to be a river, but no river when settled. I have checked the whole map, and no river in the village. Report 4422

Awesome I’m looking forward to it. A feature that might be cool to incorporate is having the migrants have their own beliefs and try to convince your tribe to follow there way of doing things. Also if the deves want they could also add a feature where the new migrants might steal all your resources and run. Maybe you could also have a small chances where they kill all your tribe as well.

Give me your mums phone-number!

Hahaha, j/k, I actually do like the possibilities of your ideas, maybe with a tad more acceptable tweaking they can add some spice to the options of raiding! :crazy_face:

Difficult to feed back on this one

Migrants appear occasionally, 3 or 4 more than enough. It seems to work.

Looking forward to seeing how knowledge features work, does that mean that many of the starting structures and tools that are now available from the start being locked except for the poor quality ones e.g. pelt and then they will unlock as new knowledge arrives?

Hopefully there is also “tech” to come that isn’t already in the game.

More or less this will be the knowledge feature

Maybe the efficiency in building increases with knowledge / practice / migrants with those skills coming in.

Report #4438
No one will work on a random section of wall in the middle of said wall. They wont dismantle it either.
Unsure if this is related, but I’m having a difficult time getting my tribe to repair older buildings as they degrade.
Perhaps they are just waiting until they are degraded further to freshen them up.

You can rise priority in your buildings to get them repaired faster. Maybe you have an access issues with some of your wall segments, we will check it.

Thank you. I continued playing and it seems they just wait until the building wasn’t operational anymore to then repair it. It is set at highest priority.

Another thing that could be happening is that the buildings maybe are communal and you have everyone very busy in their specific work. Maybe you could decrease the slots in the work groups to have more people free or decrease the working hours.

Ill give that a go. They built the wall no problem, the just dont want to build that section for some reason lol
Maybe it blocks the view from the bench to the river idk

EDIT: Was able to get them to deconstruct the wall finally. I had to disassemble the section of wall right next to it. Then I just replaced it and told them to build it again and they are doing it now no problems.
