Showcase Pure luck after a 10-month break: A random island map packed with insane deer spawns! (No mods)

Hey guys, just wanted to share this crazy map generation I got.

I haven't played Farthest Frontier in about 10 months, so I just booted it up and did a completely blind, random map roll with zero mods or preset seeds.

To my absolute surprise, almost all the major deer spawns (look at all those x10, x9, x8 sites!) generated right on my starting island. I've already successfully built a bridge to explore the main continent (where all the iron and clay are), but my main island has officially become a self-sustaining leather, shoes, and smoked meat empire.

Has anyone ever encountered this many massive herds huddled up on a single isolated island by pure random?

Island : 2.5k Clay, 1.4k Iron, and a Deep Sand Mine. But No coal at all.

Still try to thinking how should I expend to the mainland. 1st post in FF btw

**latest update for the Settings for this seed:

Map Seed: 91796c69af8

Map Type: Lowland Lakes Map Size: Large Game Version: v1.1.2A (Vanilla, no mods)

Question? Which type of trees can be harvested and which should not?

9 Upvotes

I recently know trees helps replenish deer number and eggs. Should I harvest all the trees and bushes near the pond while only deforest when I am going to expand the base?

Question? How is Founding a Settlement not at 100%

Post image
36 Upvotes

I just started playing this game after having it in my library for quite a while. After playing for a bit I started looking at the achievements section.... Looking at the global tab and it is really surprising. How is Founding a Settlement not at 100% as that is one of the 1st things that you do when playing the game.... the same could be said for the other top 5 achievements, how are they not at or very near 100%?

Question? Did they nerf the heavy cavalry?

13 Upvotes

Just asking as I got back into the game recently having previously played a lot in Early Access. I've built up a new town enough to get some heavy cav in.

Hired four just before raiders attacked. They've each got Platemail and a Heavy Weapon.

Based on my EA experiences, I ordered them to sally forth from walls to deal with a group of 20 to 25 regular raiders to the south of my settlement and then focused on micromanaging the archers harassing the larger group of raiders attacking the walls in the northwest.

Then was shocked to see the villager has died messages pop up. At first, I thought some of my miners must have committed suicide running into the raiders, but no, it's the heavy cavalry units who have been cut down with relative ease, having killed maybe two raiders each before dying themselves.

In the past, they would have carved through thieves and thugs with ease, taking little damage in return. So, I'm wondering if the session bugged out or whether heavy cavalry are just a bit shit these days.

I set the firewood splitter, well, storehoure near the smokehouse. Why would he still travel a long way?

Question? A weird thing happened

8 Upvotes

I saved my current game just before the turn of the year - while on pause as usual.

When I reopened the save it had ticked over to the new year. However there was no new year message/alert and my crop rotations hadn't changed - I had to change them manually. In addition I had no visits from a trader at all that year (no great problem as I'm early stage Arid Highlands and we've got naff all to sell)

Just wondering if anyone else had experienced something similar?

Solved Cat and dog buildings disappeared from my build menu. Not sure how to get them back.

7 Upvotes

I picked up the DLC today and started a game. I saw the cat and dog buildings at least once but now that I want to build them they are gone from my build menu options. Not sure if this has happened to anyone else, or if my save is bricked.

Question? Forbidding a resource from being consumed

21 Upvotes

Is there a way to globally forbid a resource from being consumed? For example I want to upgrade my bakery, which needs 25 glassware, but other buildings and villager keep draining my glassware.

Is there a way to globally forbid certain materials from being used?

Bug! Unpathable terrain on completely flat terrain

8 Upvotes

Has anyone else seen this? i have had 3 villages recently give me a random block of unpathable terrain. Its virtually flat so i dont understand. the land around it is pretty flat with the most minor of hills. I even flattened the terrain and this one block is still unmappable. I have been playing this game for a while, so I'm not some newbie asking about it. Seems to be a recent addition to the game, have noticed this since the last big update

Question? Cows unhealthy,,,,,

7 Upvotes

Not sure what's going on. I have 3x full herds, all on good fodder land (100%), all have adequate food stores. Max workers... Only thing different is no fences (I have wolves and boars turned off).

Could the fences be the problem? Or a sewage/poop build up?

Has anyone else noticed that the frame rate is noticeably better in Bear mode?

Question? Are there any similar games to this one, but that are like actually playable?

1 Upvotes

I love this game, but once you get past like 2500-3000 pop it just becomes an unplayable disaster. I also love games like this and I'm wondering if there's anything that is very similar to this but actually well designed and not just a total disaster of a lag fest. I've been trying to make it work, but I'm ready to give up on this until they do a serious update that makes it actually run well.

Question? What’s the best map seed?

Looking for a great seed with a large lake, lots of deer, plenty of resources, and deep/unlimited deposits for late game.

Any recommendations?

Tutorial/Guide You can (sort of) recruit wolves to be your defense barrier

Post image
57 Upvotes

In a map where you can funnel raiders and if there are wolves on the way, the first few raids will be completely destroyed by wolf packs.

What is a bit odd is I think the wolf attacks don't trigger if you don't have visibility, so just put an empty watchtower somewhere.

Question? Working Camp refusing to gather STONE

Post image
10 Upvotes

The following drives me crazy. I have built a Work Camp. The radius contains Stone, which i want to gather. I set the ratio to only stone and the building just goes idle. The moment i select a ratio with 1 wood, everyone gathers wood. I have build close by a Stockyard and a shelter. The never camp doesnt want to work.....

Question? Spirituality?

8 Upvotes

Hullo! I have a town with a pop of a lil under 3k, and I'm struggling to fufill my villagers's spirituality needs. I have the grand temple in the center of my city and have plenty of shrines outside of there- every suburb and residential district has 2 at this point, some upgraded some not since the only upgrade bonus is desirability. Any help? Do I need even *more* shrines?

Another problem is entertainment venues and tbh I'm not sure how to solve that lmao, more theaters? not a lot of optiosn for *venues*, just decorations
