      A variation on this is to create irrigation trenches to some of the deep water sources, then you don’t need the dump active. But it’s best to go two levels deep with the trench, as water tends to drop a full level during the dry season. As trench is built, then place double platform with paths to get double use from the land.

    Just be careful if you dry seasons get longer. That'll mean the plans you have for the place will vary depending how much water is currently in the flood plane. You'll wind up have to build not just ways to get rid of water but also ways to hold it aswell.

    @rainiedash9225 Před rokem +145

    I was inspired to play this map by your series and had a lot of fun with it. Two quick tips:
    Try to plant pines instead of birches for quick logs. You can get two cycles of pines and then replace them with maples and that gives you more time to plant maples since the pines take a little longer to grow.
    Also try to straighten out your paths (especially stairs)so they are going radially outward from the district center. It’ll extend your building and working range and save headaches later.

    • @liamnehren1054
      @liamnehren1054 Před rokem +4

  • @Chris-hx3oe
    @Chris-hx3oe Před rokem +13

    I think the best solution would be to build Levees around the water spawning points. Put a Floodgate at the back, against the edge of the map, and one in the front towards your valley. Then regulate the water out the front and back floodgates as needed to prevent flooding. Its not a exciting or pretty solution to the problem, but for an engineer it is the most practical. Unless you want to be an architect about it.
    This game really needs culverts and tunnels to drain water, that would be so exciting.

    so you could make it so the like never ends but the build range from paths stays the same. or u could make it so you dont need paths at all... its very usefull if u dont like having multiple districts

    I think building on the edges is a great idea since being as high as possible would really help. Additionally you could surround the big water sources with pumps so the beavers that are lower are safe. Plus you will have a lot of water. Hopefully my idea is helpful. I love this series btw

    • @glitterboy2098
      @glitterboy2098 Před rokem

      could even eventually build dams up around the big water sources to route their water directly over the edge of the map instead of into the center. build them with gates so you can spill just enough water into the center as you need to maintain the desired level of flooding.

      @hankscustoms594 Před rokem

      @@glitterboy2098 that’s a good idea. But you could still build along the edges while having still being able to drain water. My idea kind of uses the lower levels as a reservoir. And then that reservoir could be used for pumping water and the levels that are green could be used for farming. Also if there is enough pumps the water level could be controlled that way.

    I was going to say to prioritize dynamite so you can make the existing water exit, deeper, so you can claim more land. Then you'd be set for deciding what you want long term. And if you don't like the result. All it takes is one levee to return it to normal.

    Birch is a trap. If you want fast wood, use the pines. Just a few days more for double the yield. And of course the most efficient ones is maple, but 30 days is quite the time to wait.
    Another tip: Don't pause the dam around your island, double low prioritize it. (Use the prioritizing option in the menu at the bottom to box select multiple buildings and give them a priority.) That way builders will build it when they have nothing else to do and there are spare logs and you don't have to micro manage them.

    No no no Matt you enginob :)
    What you could do with the two lumberjack flags on top of levies was save on the levies by making stairs up to one levy with the flag on top. That way you could save one levy infront of each flag. And I do believe that a levy cost almost the same in logs as a platform. Because of the conversion of logs to planks. So overall there is not a big difference when you are in a need for something to build on. What you can save on is by making your designs more efficient, which you often don't. Strange that for a Engineer ;)

  • @StoopidMonkey0
    @StoopidMonkey0 Před rokem +19

    I agree that I would like it better without the city districts but I'm pretty sure that it has something to do with limiting the beavers movement so that they don't end up far from home while working and then unable to make it home to sleep. Then that messes up their whole schedule leading to a cycle of them being exhausted then eventually death. Hope they can think of a way around it perhaps with more schedule micromanaging.

    • @ozziemitch1
      @ozziemitch1 Před rokem

      Perhaps they could make a more expensive housing option like beaver hotels or something where beavers long distances away from districts could sleep when they won't be able to make it back to the district in time. Expensive such as 1k research points and metal bars? Just a thought.

    • @kelb6762
      @kelb6762 Před rokem +2

      my understanding is that it's actually a processing/performance issue; the more beavers you have the more paths the game has to process at once as all the beavers are moving at once going in multiple directions to different jobs and tasks across the entirety of the map, so having multiple districts breaks that down into smaller bits so it can process say, 600 beavers in small 30 path chunks in a small area instead of trying to calculate 600 beavers moving at once over everything, especially when speeding up time. it makes the game run at a decent speed instead of like, 1 fps

    The plan with water wheels sounds the most reasonable 👍

    Maybe you should do something about the 4 trapped bevers at the other town district, got sent over during relocation, can see them just before the outro.

    In that final shot you can see a bunch of beavers switched districts when you moved Engibury and are starving!

    So happy to see the corner pieces come out of the mega damn. Wasn’t sure, but they always made me wonder…is Matt a secret architect? But no, phew!

    If you want to have a consistent water wheel channel, you would want to build where you're at least 3 blocks below the top water level of a reservoir. This will allow you a controlled drain of the reservoir using a 3-tall dam gate. If you build near the top of the reservoir like you did, you'll only get one block of drainage during droughts.

    Do timberborners but you have a mod with like roller coasters for transportation
    So beavers will like take the plank roller coaster to bring planks to another place
    Also praise the engineer paddy

    i would dam up your food/ tree farms, and then build a "water town" on stilts/ a town off the edge of the map, kind of use the natural bowel of the map as an infinite water storage, i would also have a single exit on the map, as low as possible, with a dammed up water wheel, energy creation area (you want the water to be higher then the exit so you can continue to make water during dry seasons) their is a way to limit how much water exits a dam, but it is kind of a game exploit (waterfalls have different water physics compared to flat rivers), the game does not have limited flow flood gates unfortunately

    I agree with the districts, thats my leased favorite part, either they are to small or just a pain that dosent add that much more than hassle, it could use an update.
    That or, 2 options, so its plausable to play with and without as an option.
    Id say a kinda co-op option where each player controll thier own district could be cool, and probobly the only way multiplayer whould make scense

    Depending on how long you want to work on this, creating some kind of deep reservoir system at each corner could be cool to see. You could have runoff going out the back of the map but use flood gates to control your water in the bowl

  • @letsplaysmr8621
    @letsplaysmr8621 Před rokem

    definitely looking forward to seeing you access and build up that corner spring/reservoir... long term using a system of gates to funnel any excess water off-map? nice ... maybe make the entire outer perimeter a reservoir ... that's pretty much game over, right lol

    hi mat, first of all big fan of the series. i bought the game bc of the timberboners.
    after watching the first few episodes i downloaded the map as well and something that i tired was to establish a clockwise turning flow of water around the centered island to get rid of power shortage. so basically a dam between your main island and the place where water can leave the map..works quite good if you ignore the dry seasons.
    looking forward for the next episode and i cant wait to see what u will do with this map
    peace love and wet beavers!

    U will love the map “ thousand islands “ or maybe even “ lakes “ ( thousand islands = thousand bridges )

    You reclaimed Land with Levies. You are therefore the Netherlands!
    1:40 Longer growing trees are better for the bulk. With such a large plot, you want the workers to have as little work/plot as possible. And that ratio is better if they need longer to grow.
    But yes, a few quick growers to get going is good. Just don't forget to replace them once the system is working.
    6:09 Don't those two wheels kinda look like the Princess Leia Hairdo? Or more Mickey Mouse ears?
    6:25 You may also want to make any of the water routes more direct. You originally built the for minimal material. But some of them are reaching the edge of the District. Better make a more direct route.
    13:18 Actually there was one Metal Deposit in on of the two large lakes, right at the bottom.
    You would likely have to build a large levy all around, then pump out the middle at bit.
    So chances are it would probably still be quicker to go for the other one. But in case stuff is getting too easy later...
