Resources

For resources obtained from recipes, you can customize recipes in production buildings and decide what is being crafted, from which ingredients, and at what limit. To do so, select a building or use the Global Recipe Panel (the “book” icon). To disable or enable a recipe for a specific good, mark the checkbox next to its icon. To change the ingredients used, select a resource in the recipe and choose another good from the radial menu. To set a limit on production, use the horizontal bar in the “limit” section or type a number into the text field.

An arrow will indicate when a resource or type or resource is increasing or decreasing.

Food

Main article: Food

Every few minutes, Villagers will go to rest at a Hearth and try to eat food from Storage. If they cannot eat, they will get a Resolve penalty. Alternatively, if Complex Food is available, villagers will eat that instead of raw food, rewarding a bonus to Resolve. Therefore, it is essential that your settlement have a steady income of food resources.

Raw Food

Initially only Raw Food will be available around the beginning of each settlement. Raw Food prevents villagers from getting hungry, but will not satisfy their needs for Complex Food. Compared to the number and diversity of ingredients, Complex Food feeds more villagers than Raw Food. In general, plan ahead to convert Raw Food into Complex Food, so that you can feed more villagers sustainably and satisfy their needs for Complex Foods.

You can prevent your villagers from eating one or more of these Raw Food resources via Consumption Control, once the Upgrade Obsidian Archives Level 3 is unlocked. For example, if you are running low on Roots and need Flour, you may want to disable Roots in the Consumption panel.

Villagers prefer these food items over Raw Food when resting at Hearths. Satisfying villagers with Complex Food is more efficient, because most Recipes yield more goods than the number of raw ingredients used to produce them.

Artifacts: Curiosities of varying nature. Fascinating, sinister, both and all between.
