Frustration with sell

[Andromeda]

There are too many things I have no control. Sell of products is one of them. I have plenty of expiring products which I do not know how to sell. Some of them are available from time to time, but I do not know how and why. Please let me know if this is a bug in the game or is it me?

This game changes the warehouse mechanics completely. It has to be in your main house to sell it. So do not have resource calls for eggs anywhere else. Then they get brought to your house (or logistics center). Early game, if you grow yourself too fast before you get logistics, you will lose more products to expiration than you will be able to sell, because your house people can only carry 200-400 each trip.

Did you play through the campaign? It does a great job of introducing all of the new concepts.

Thanks for the explanation. Please tell me why all my hens starve to death, while the Logistic Center is full of food? What can i do to convince the workers to start feeding the hens? I used to like the Farm Manager. It was self explanatory. This one requires special tutorial. I still hope that I could like it.

Logistic centeris only for transporting resources. Employees from animals building requires access to warehouses. To fill warehouses with required food you need to set in near warehouses resource orders for food your animals need. It's definitely little more complex than it was in Farm Manager 2021 but it gives much better control when your farm grows. For example you can set resource orders for food and production resources in warehouses to keep them for your buildings and for rest you can setup autotrade in logistic center. This way you will no longer sell your own resources you need (which was happening in simplier "portal style" warehousing in FM21).
It's great you want to give a chance Farm Manager World. There are tons of such changes in overall concept which gives much bigger depth to your farm but requires little more trials at the begining.

Also please remember its still very begining of Farm Manager World Early Access adventure. We decided for such option because we really want to keep imrpving the game so, please, help us with your Farm Mangaer experiance and tell us what you liked more in FM21 and what's better in FMW. We are also waiting for all great ideas (and bug reports ;) )

I am having similar issues, I have set my silo next to the hens at 1250 of each required resource (which is even split) yet my hens are starving with full silo right next to them!! wtf?

I really do recommend the campaign. It serves as a full tutorial about every aspect of the game, including the need to set resources as Rafal explained.

Is the silo next to them actually full, or did you just tell it to have those resources, and they haven't made their way yet? Also, there is currently a bug that is killing our precious animals regarding feed. Saving and reloading worked for me every time.

[The Grim_Reaper]

yes they are full, I have a field for each resource next to the silo, and a warehouse right next to the field also to speed up the delivery (no resource calling from warehouse) I currently have 1200 wheat 1210 corn 1150 lupine and 900 soya yet 5 hens just died of starvation (the silo has been full for a while and field is 9 days from next harvest)

[The Grim_Reaper]

same is happening with cows btw, I have 25000 grass in barn yet all cows just died (16)

[The Grim_Reaper]

I think I have solved my issue, I demolished a coop in the centre and placed a medium silo in its place, seems the workers are too lazy to walk to the original silo :p

Yeees. As I said. I hope I can like this game. Not much of my attention goes to developing. Instead, lots of it goes to controlling buildings. On the other hand, the game controls me. I cannot do anything without a training. I cannot give a try and see how it works. I have to follow the path. I do not want to say, not much fun, before giving a proper try. But I'm afraid that after playing it once, every other time will be the same, following the path.

Well, that's true. Campaign has little closed structure. But I thin free Mode gives a lot of freedom. Especially with disabled trainings.

Thanks for the hint. If there is a possibility to disable the training, the game will make more sens and more fun.
