I need to start producing solders to fend off the approaching enemies who started with a headquarters. I have built a reindeer farm to get fur, but it is only making reindeer. Is there any way to control what the farm produces or is it just a matter of so many more requests for reindeer have gone in before my requests from the sewing room for fur? Top Quote

However if you only have one water and one barley only the first production is performed, and all other fail, until the sequnce starts again. so to get any fur you need to stop the building until enough water and barley are present there.

Wait, so does this also mean that if you had 3 of each and no more coming then it would make deer,fur,deer and then RESET to the start? That might explain those games where I built half a dozen trying to make meat and not getting any... Question... isn't this a bug? Or at least... unfair? -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote

If you can't supply another site do not build it. Top Quote

I set fur and deer demand to 0 and fully supplied a reindeer farm and got 0 meat. Save game attached. Attachment: reinmeat.zip (428.4 KB) -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote

Thought I saw fur, meat. Does the help file make that link though? IIRC it's too vague. -- To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before Top Quote
