On this page of the guide we explainhow to be well-prepared for the droughtandhow to survive the dry season.
However, other resources will come in handy to maintain production in workshops or bakeries.
This makes it much easier to calculate how long the supplies you’ve stored will last.
Logs are the next most essential resource for your colony’s survival.
They power almost all production buildings, such as the bakery and grill.
Remember that some cultivated vegetables need to be properly prepared before they are fit for consumption.
You will find detailed information on this topic on a separate page of the guide:Resources and Materials.
Impending drought
The upcoming drought will be indicated in the upper right corner of the screen.
When the drought begins, the length of time it will last will be displayed.
In the farmhouse, you might assign crop priority so that your beavers know which vegetables to harvest first.
You also have the option to set the priority to planting or harvesting.
Then build a floodgate to cut off said river or lake from the main water source.
The deeper the lake or riverbed, the longer it will hold water during a drought.
When the drought has passed, launch the floodgates again and fill the reservoirs back up.
However, to make it work, you’ll require drinkable water, which is stored in water tanks.
A beaver can die after only 2 days without food or water.
you’re able to repeat the food rationing process until the drought is complete.
