Natures Bounty

January 4, 2011 7:58:42 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Hello All

I have recently started playing Elemental again after the 1.1 update and for the most part I am enjoying my gameing experience. but recently i have started a new game and have run into a few problems that I am hoping maybe a few of you might be able to help me.

 

I started expanding and building more settlements early and have created a decent size army to fend off the monsters that seem to plague my country side. but recently i have run into the problem of not generating enough food and gilder. well to fix the gilder issue I have demolished some of my city improvemnets that were sucking the gold away.  But I have yet to find a fix to generate more food other than possibly demolishing a few huts.  I have tried to cast natures bounty on a few smaller settlements trygin to boost their food supply but it wont let me cast it and I dont know why... But it will let me cast it on one of my larger cities.

Well I thnk you for any advice that you might be able to give

 

Happy gameing

From reading the game code, I think that Nature's Bounty requires that the city already be producing food. Could this be your problem?

hmm well thats kinda stupid hehehe. but if that is the way that it has to work then it looks like i might have to destroy a hut, cast the spell then rebuild the hut. I wish there was away to actually make some rich fertile soil with a spell.  I havent really found out what the revive land does except for austetics "probably misspelled"

You shouldn't have to do that; the idea isn't that there has to be a empire-wide food already available for Nature's Bounty to work, but rather that it improves existing food production - so you can cast it on any city that has a linked food resource (fertile land, oasis, wild wheat, twilight bees)

Is it just me or doesn't the concept of houses (=more hungry inhabitants) consuming the same amount of food suck as well?
