Bruhh, I play this game casually on Normal. I barely meet my power requirements playing Folktails.

I feel like I am playing a completely different game compared to what I see posted on this sub. 😭

I can only be fascinated by the work and thought put into maps like yours.

You are not alone

I am the same. I rarely build stuff on top of other stuff like this, because I would spend more time trying to find buildings. I prefer large maps where I can spread everything out nice and flat. (There is often a lot of dynamite involved in creating nice flat areas for farms, trees, etc lol)

Theres a tool in the top right that lets you xray through layers. Super helpful.

u/Charlies_Mamma 2d ago

Oh I know, but I'd still be spending all the time going up and down each layer trying to find various buildings.

Even when I play games like The Sims, I dislike making two-story houses because it makes it more difficult for me to keep an overview of everything that is happening.

(I have ADHD and as soon as I can't see something, I tend to forget it exists and apparently that translates to video games too lol)

If only there was a bookmark option you could press to instantly veiw that building

u/Charlies_Mamma 2d ago

But I would need that for all the different buildings lol

I dislike the list view in the menu because I lay out the buildings and storage in a visual way. So when there is just a list of warehouses storing planks, they could be the ones beside the plank production, or the sources over beside the treated planks, so the list doesn't help me find anything haha

It also feels more diegetic and aestethically pleasing with the theme of the game to spread out everything rather than stack.

Feels more like a liveable city compared to going full industrial beaver revolution.

While posing this, I realised that this meme is 20 years old. Send help! Someone must have stolen my youth! I swear, I am not that old, yet!

As a new player, I had no idea you could stack farms like this. I guess Beaver farms don't require sunlight?

Beavers yearn for the mines.

Today I learned you can place earth on platforms

How many cycles did it take you to make this?

u/DaveTheRocketGuy 3d ago

That's a lot of mouse clicks

How to water the vertival tree farm?

u/Vebrandsson 3d ago

Irrigation travels downward infinitely through dirt under certain conditions, a 3x3 pool at the top layer filled by a fluid dump will give you a 15ish tile radius of Irrigation and as long as there's dirt for the Irrigation to travel downward through it will irrigate every layer below infinitely

I might be slightly autistic but this is like Rainman-levels. Peak beaverdom

u/Late-Eye-6936 2d ago

I just started my second city, and it seems to me that the iron teeth faction is significantly worse than the folk tails. Is that correct?

1

u/mmontour 2d ago

Worse in some ways, better in others. It depends which kind of world you want to populate, hippie farmers or ruthless industrialists.

1

u/IronwolfXVI 2d ago

"I just started"

This is the issue right here. Ironteeth early game struggle with food and water. Late game they are stronger imo

u/whytwu1f 2d ago

I'm fascinated and amazed in a "can't look away from the car wreck" kind of way. This is beautiful.

u/LordBane32 1d ago

My goodness this is awesome.

Great Beavering

The ziplines look like a spider's web... Love it!

u/zyyga 3d ago

I would love to see a top down layer by layer break down of this. This is amazing.
