Hi All,
It's not mega..it's banished plus: I have a food problem. Anyone else? I was playing a game with 500+ population, when food inventory took a nose dive. I check the graphs, There was no corresponding population increase, and nothing I could do would counter it.

I uninstalled the game, reinstalled it .The first game, people are dying of starvation. I don't understand what is happening. A Population 38, w/24 adults. 2 fishing docs on a 2 different lakes, 1 hunter cabin and no food.

The game is at the end of year 3, 5 citizens have died so far. 0 food, 0 logs, 0 firewood. ???

I check the mod to see if it was actually installed. The mod didn't install. Playing the base game. Reminds me of why this is the only game I have sought a mod for. I installed mega and realized for years I was playing banished plus. Fixed that, I am now starting a new game to see what happens. I can't help but wonder if banished plus was uninstalled in the other game and that was the reason.

I wish I knew what happened, Makes me leery of playing banished now.

I played the base game 99% of the time.
It seems your food production rate is smaller than the consumption rate.
2 fishing docks? 1 hunter cabin?
Where is the gatherers hut + forester lodge?

It is only 3 years into the game. There are not enough builders and not enough population to man any other jobs.

You don't need every building manned.
Wood cutter, Blacksmith and Tailor should be manned on demand in early game.
You won't need tool or cloth every day, same as fuel. You can rotate them until population go up.
Also, I would suggest you master the base game first before trying mods.
It is a game for patient, not for rushing.

Not as if I have owned and played the game for years. I was surprised that I was not playing the mod. Sorry you can't understand the situation. I would prefer to not hear from a judgmental person like you again. Thank you.
