so i've started 3 games now, and every time i end up starting over due to some food bug. seems like after a few turns my food goes down and suddenly i have zero food again, even though i havent built a house or anything that uses food.
Anyone run into this or have a work around?
It's not a bug, food is now a scarce resource, don't build houses until you need them, then only build what you need. A little later in the game, there are spells that improve food production and research under Civics but, even improved farming is now a rare item in research.
It's ok, food stays at almost zero until you get the spells and researched food/farm production items. Town/city growth is now slowed down a lot in Beta 4.
Don't forget to build your city/town in around food production resources.
oops - my mistake. I was building a bunch of markets and I didnt realize they now cost 1 food each.
I found that out too. I tried to ask if it was a bug but I got no response. Is markets costing food a bug? I hope it is because with food being so scarce you need all you can to support population and markets don't even support population so I don't even bother to build markets, there are other ways to get gold other than wasting food.
