building upgrades

[Zapp Brannigan]

Hi all,

A few questions about repairing and upgrading buildings. Does repairing building actually help and do further improvements from building depot do anything?

[GaminGargoyle]

If you just repair the buildings the fix it missions are repeatable, If you rebuild using materials from the building store, the fix it quests are no longer repeatable. Is set that way for social point collection.

I mean for your own home.

The building Upgrades are mostly a cosmetic change. They really are not required at this time, but give the players a way to personalize their home & farm.

I have suggested that the livestock should give a big boost to production with the first level (Repairs), but then after the Upgrade they would give a final little bump to the production of the livestock.

There is an exception to the cosmetics of the Upgrades, in that Solar Panels on the roofs will give a bump to your SP on every sunny day.

The chicken coop gives more eggs if repaired, but no extra bump for rebuilding as well.

Yes both livestock buildings have their production levels increased if repaired.

I also forgot to mention that you will make a little bit of income (along with the SP) for having solar panels on your farm buildings.

For the life of me, I cannot seem to find where my house still needs repairs. I have checked every nook and cranny and I can not find anymore repairs. It is to the point where it is rather annoying and I am getting frustrated with this game. I cannot count the number of hours I have gone over the house from top to bottom looking where repairs still need to happen.

Yeah. There is point where your house and property around is all fixed. There is nothing much else to do. Only get married and have two kids. Buy all machines and equipment. Purchase all fields, silos and greenhouse on map. Get rich and complete all steam archivements. After that game can start to be boring as quest getting repetetive?

Have you checked in the Statistics page to verify which buildings on the farm it says are completed?

If there are any that it reports as not finished, I can maybe help you figure out the problems.

Another option is to upload your save game files (all eight) to a location that I can access them. Then I can find your problem locations.

There is some tips in the forum; A quick guide for new players....

And some additional information about the house on page 2.

Some things to check on the house itself:

1. The whole base concrete around the perimeter.
   
2. Bathroom ceiling
   
3. Back left wall inside kitchen
   
4. Attic floor

These are usually some of the problem areas on the house.
