Can't upgrade Hut; what am I missing

[ltolman4]

When I click a hut the Needs and Met categories....all needs have been lit up blue; and all met have been lit up blue

When I keep hut selected it says I'm generating 13gold per and I have 10/10 people.

Then it breaks it down by Fish/Rum/Rope ? All the numbers are at its highest so like 4/4 then 3/3 and 2/2 or something

The Up Arrow will not work
And the Tab button for quick building (ie demolish) says I cant upgrade hut either :(

It definitely sounds like you're doing everything correctly, huts should be upgradable once needs are fully met! Are you still experiencing the issue?

In both campaign and freeplay mode you'll need to unlock tier 2 housing before you can upgrade. In the campaign this is linked to a story mission. In freeplay mode this will be linked to a population milestone mission.

Lastly there is a short cooldown between building a hut and being able to upgrade it to the next level.

I'm having this issue with the houses on Pantaloon Island. The needs and wants are all met, yet I don't have any way to click on the upgrade button, which is stopping any progress with the Ironwood Lumber quest. It gives me no feedback on what's preventing the upgrade.

I'll discuss with the rest of the team, and agreed that the tooltip should show what is preventing the upgrade for clarity.

Nothing came of this early game basic feature not working?

The only way I was able to progress past the 'Liquid Gold' quest was to build 24 friggin huts, to complete the objective of 200 labourers...

After getting past it, i am pretty sure you have told us to upgrade during 'Liquid Gold', but have the feature locked until quest "More Men".

PS. Immediately following this, my 'Labourers Recruited' slowly dropped from 200 to 57 with no reason or explanation. As i googled why i cant build a Captains Inn, finding someone posting that there is a Wrecked Captains Inn hidden in the forest of the island (only way i could possibly progress again), build my ship, had the next fight, and came back to continue, my Labourers had dropped to 14. So i simply have no people & no production, the entire island and game is dead for no reason. Awesome work, guys.

Lets get the game working, thanks guys.

The Laborers slowly dropping could be caused by production structures that may not have the maximum number of workers.

If Labourers is dropping, then they are quitting their jobs. So why arent they taking the jobs and working? I have 190 workers, and only 14 employed. Pretty sure I dont have any control over workers taking jobs.

Proximity to the Market may be the issue. It also has to be 100% filled. A hut next to a road, while lit 'yellow' with the market selected, indicates not full access to the market. Ensure all 'needs' are 100% blue and green colored roads for particular huts.

I picked a random building, the Hemp Plantation, ticked Priority building, and it went up from 1 worker to 14. Clicked Priority off and they all quit again.

Id restart the entire scenario, but there isnt even an option to do that.

My only option is to restart the entire campaign with a new game. This game is fast becoming a chore and an annoyance, with simple things not working. This playthrough attempt is its last chance. Especially since I cant even skip the tutorial steps.

*Edit: Its because i upgraded the houses to the next tier that everyone stopped working.

My final update: During the new game, I planted a Hemp Plantation, joined to the road, planted crops all around. Depot is filling up. Placed a Rope maker up against it, on the road, and the Ropemaker has a ! stating there is no plantation placed for resources, while next doors hemp plants are leaning up against its building.

"Press [right-click] when a ship is selected to issue a command" has been stuck on the screen the entire game too, even though ive done it 20 times.

I think were done here.
