Banished

[PRC]

Saw a guy post this on another forum.  Shows number of tiles wide by height with the number of farmers needed to maintain it in the cross sections.

Having a 15 x 15 farm operating at full efficiency would require four villagers.  But you're better off in terms of varied produce by having four 8 x 7 farms each with a single farmer and the output should equal close to the same amount.

Orchards:

Interesting.  Thanks

Educating villagers takes 6 years (seasons) and starts at age 10.  I wait to build my school until the first round of kids are 5 or 6 then put a teacher in when they're 9.

I've read online that educated villager's improve productivity by 50%.

Okay, so I have 27 year old pops occasionally who are still students. Is that because it takes six years but they age each season? I'm about to burn down the schoolhouse.

I have a confirmed bachelor who moved into his house at age 34 and never took a wife.  He is now 57 and still single.  Unfortunately Banished doesnt recognize same sex couples and so I fear he will live alone his whole life - and force me to build other houses for those more productive.

It's interesting....but I kind of get bored without any purpose later on.

Yeah, that's kind of what happens in sandbox games.

I'm not sure about that. Generally one can come up with one's own sense of purpose/direction. That was my concern about Banished right now was that it wasn't deep enough to necessarily allow for that yet.

Yeah that's kind of my problem with it, there just aren't that many toys in the sandbox.  Mods will definitely fix it and add loads of content if what I'm reading about the mod-ability is correct, though.

If you have other houses with a single female in it then you should hit the destroy building function on that house for a second.  Then cancel your deconstruct.  The guy will move out and move in with the female.

Hmm... I haven't seen that.  Maybe you had uneducated villagers who decided to go back to school.

But that is realistic.

If this was Banished, the Canadian version, the poor guy could marry another man and adopt children.

Early on in my town I had a 9 year old boy knock up a 41 year old woman.
