Food resources problem...

Hi guy, I'm having this problem where my crews members is 27/30 and my food resources is 30/30 but my food resources is still not enough, is there a way to solve this problem?

I dont see why. Its the truth. Its not hard to have good productions at all. Every food facility and water. And for meds all I have is the large medicinal plants farm and hydroponics farm.

You have 30 survivors?

Yes I do. No I dont have a production booster via sv coins. I just built every facility there is and keep my people in good health. No I dont have an expedition unit out. I have recently starting killing off my useless people with the expeditions. But even when I send them out to die I send them as a pair, so I always have at least 28 people on base. Ive killed four so far so Im starting to get higher skilled people.

I have lots of people on some teams and other teams only have 2-3 people. My defense team only has 2 people, I keep getting food supply or base dev type jobs on my rescues. I think my food team has 7 people and base dev team has 6 or 8. But still all my teams are rank C. Stupid RNG dog s hit with what job a person you rescue has. The last guy I reascued was wearing a lab coat when I was carrying him back, I was hoping hed be a medical worker as my med team only has 2 people. He ended up being a construction worker...wtf?

Then I got no idea how you do it. With 30 survivors, rank C in food supply and all food facilities built, I get red numbers when the exploration team comes home. Maybe they changed something in the last update and I didn't notice.

C rank base dev increases production, C rank food supply makes food feed more people. All the vegetable farms, all the animal cages and ranches, and the hydroponics farm increase your food production to be positive even with the exploration team in base.

Check the bonuses on your team, make sure base dev says "Assigned facility harvests +1" and "Team Facility shared resource Production increase lv. 3" For food supply "Shared resource (food resources) consumption speed down.

I have five people on food supply and the c, five people in base developement and the c, and have food projection of +402 with the exploration team out.

It's not that I don't believe you. I'm not a fast learner and they keep changing various game balances, so maybe I just didn't see the right formula yet.

It'll be good if you post an SS though. Maybe I see something I'm missing.

What about what I've said above ? You can easily check if you miss something...........

I got everything you got, except for rank B. Zod said it works for him with rank C.

Then send 4 people in exploration and never see their report, you will be fine until you get a B rank in food supply.

You will need the hydrophonics farm as well if I recall correctly, I don't have it yet so I'm at 26/30 staff to still have the income.

i agree with this. With hydrophonic farm you can have 30 people on your base and have +40-50/ 15min food and water. Without only 24-25 and 4 in exploration team(becouse they dont consume food and whater when in raid). Food sup team "C" ofc.

Mate, I really appreciate you trying to be helpful, but if you read the beginning of the discussion you'll notice I gave the exact same advice, because that's how I do it now.

The topic that followed was how to obtain the balance without having your exploration team away, and someone claims they can do it while still having rank C in food supply. That's what I am curious about, because for me it doesn't work.

Heres that SS of my base status. I would have swore my food was around 200, I must have mistaken it for medical production. Either way, C food team and in the positive still.

And for some reason I have a B in base dev team now, I swear that last night it was C. But Ive been moving people around trying to find where they fit better, perhaps thats why it changed.

I see some things that may have made a difference in regard of food production. I'll test them. Thanks for the pic.
