Production chains helper

Sorry I've been quiet...been busy having net problems!

Somebody in the chat shared this great link, which details all the production chains. Tells you exactly how many foresters, etc, you need for an efficient economy.

I thought this may become obsolete with the new updated 'economy tab' (coming next week...I think!), but it's still quite handy to have as a guide, particularly if you're planning your resource consumption wisely ;)

Tip of the week!

Bored of endlessly scrolling around your island? Me too.

Did you know you can also use the number pad (to the right of your keyboard) to quickly jump from section to section? (If you're having problems with this one, make sure your 'Numlock' light is ON).

If you don't have a mousewheel, you can also zoom in and out using the '+' and '-' keys (usually on the right of the number pad!).

Edit; These navigation tips also work on Macs too! Thanks to Sinister-King for this info :)

Updated level rewards!

Incase you don't know...head on over to tsotesting.com, if you test the new features for 15 minutes you will get a reward on your main account! Not sure what the rewards are yet, I will keep you posted.

I'm in the process of updating the 'level rewards sheet' for the new tutorial, it can be found here. These new features and quests will be going live in 6 days! Been looking at the new trade system too, it is AWESOME and much easier to find what you need. I'll also be writing a bit on the new guild quests when I get there.

UPDATE; The first reward was a cheese sandwich....hopefully they'll improve as the tests go on :)

Resource map, and other news!

A nifty little map, updated by Dyunel. Shows you all the resources located on the island! I've used this when wondering how many times to send out my geologists when grabbing a new section.

In other news, I've just received a hundred views on my blog! Not bad for only being open a week!

I've also added another page, where I will catalog all the links I post. You can get there by clicking the 'guides/useful links' button at the top of the page. I will endeavour to post more content here over the weekend, I'm currently moving house at the moment.

Thank you all, and Happy Settling!

Tip of the week!

Don't forget to upgrade your barracks and provision house. This can cut production times in half, leading to you levelling up quicker.
