Starve the beavers.

[Corfe]

Hi guys. I'm in a creepy forest where plains occupy d*ck ghosts asking me to punish my people. One ghost told me to starve the beavers OR ELSE! :) So how do I take away food from one faction of my precious citizens, beavers in this case. Consumption table doesn't seem to have an option to take away basic food. Need help asap! <3

what is the other race in your settlement ?
Example, if the other race is human (who can take 6 hunger stack)
I think is OK to starve the human all together.
Since generally human has higher resolve than beaver anyway.

Otherwise, you are right I cannot see how to starve certain race with basic food control

Basic foods are on the left in a vertical line - took me ages before I noticed they were there. I don't know the event you describe, but at a guess you need to forbid all basic foods (you can't do that on a paer species basis) and forbid the beavers' complex foods and then possibly wait until the first beaver tries to eat and doesn't have access to food.

Damn, I guess the only solution is to forbid all food to all species and then just give complex and race-EXCLUSIVE food to other races. A really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ mechanics if you ask me :( But the consequences for not doing this event are even worse. Let's see if I can do it. :)

You usually don't want your villagers to eat basic food as one basic food can make between 2 and 4 complex food items (or even more, depending on cornerstones, recipe availability etc.).
In most of my games I end up restricting consumption of most basic foods after some time. The ghost should give you 45 minutes, that's 4 years, to complete his request, although it will take some time to starve the beavers, so you got around 3 years to prepare..

Actually it was so simple that I think it's a devs mistake. It was enough to turn off all the food in consumption tab for few seconds and the ghost was satisfied. So odd. :)

I don't think i had this, or i cant remember, but most likely he asks starve 2 beavers or something like this. So when you turn it off, the next time two beavers go to eat they stay hungry, and get starvation and mission accomplished:) (I have to build 10 human houses:D on P15:D)

You tell the Ghost to ♥♥♥♥ off and eat the penality to be honest

Nah. I'll do it, since an order is to build 6 human houses (or 8?:D):D
