How to upgrade after you’ve reached Large Town?

[Black Album]

Hi,
Forgive me my ignorance because I haven’t spent much time looking into this …

I’ve completed my first “large town” settlement (although I have 4 others im building up) and after completing it I looked to see what I needed to do to take it to the next level … but it told me I’d reached the maximum level for that settlement.

So … how do I increase the level for that town so I can add more “perk points” to it?

i belive large town is the currently highest lvl you can have, the idea is that you have more regions and each region focuses on different things, for example my main regions is focusing on making weapons so i decided to go and unlock the bottom perks (deep mining et.) bc i have rich iron and my other focused on farming bc i have good land to have wheat

there is a mod though that unlocks all of the perk point if you want that

Ahh … thank you …
I hadn’t even looked into modding the game … although it is a shame if that is the limit in the vanilla game but I’m sure it will change when the full version is released.

A follow up question (if you don’t mind)
Can mods be added to an ongoing game or does it need a restart?

[Black Album]

Ohh … and where do I get the mods ?
Nexus? Or is there an ingame mod menu …
I haven’t really looked … I just opened the game and started playing on default

Mods are nozt supported, and any issues, crashes and bugs you might report while playing a modded game will be ignored.

Thanks for the info …
I was presuming that as the game is early access that all saves were “disposable” because updates could break them.
I’m happy to explore the game for a few months then come back to it much later when it’s released.
It’s an enjoyable game but the lack of perk points after large town has been achieved doesn’t allow me to have a bit of fun and grow (and learn at the same time).

Large town is the highest level. There is no city level, you couldn't have enough families in one region to even make it to a small City. Just not enough space in a region, even with tier 4 or 5 housing.

There wil be higher building/town-levels in the future and with that more skillpoints.
But just like with an RPG, it would break the entire sense of a perk-system if every town could skill the entire perk-tree.

Well, we don't know that, and we can only speculate about tier 4 or above housing.

However, i can say i've got to large town without even covering 1/4 of a region map. It doesn't even require a massive amount of space. All you need is a total of 30 burgage plots, with 20 of them being at least level 2 and 15 being level 3.

Even if you double plot everything (which i generally do), you could fit that into 1/10 of one of the bigger regions, including backyard extensions.

It obvious that the developers intention is to add more settlement levels to the gameat sme future date. At the moment there are Development Points that cannot be reached with the the limit of six development levels allowed in the game.

So, this obviously something for future expansion.

Yes, but it's also obvious that the developer does not intend for one region to be able to unlock all development points. Specialization is the intended gameplay.

Your math doesn't add up. Did you mean 35 burgage plots in total?

Nope, it's correct.

Your city will look like this:
15 T3 plots, 5 T2 plots and 10 T1 plots.

20 level 2 plots + 15 level 3 plots = 35 plots in total in my brain. Or did I misread something?

You need 30 plots in total.
20 of them have to be at least T2.
This includes the 15 T3 plots.
