Stuck in the tutorial

[Larkis]

I'm stuck in the tutorial. I'm supposed to build a sawmill and warehouse. The sawmill also produces boards. But the boards don't get to the warehouse construction site. It says 0 out of 15 boards and the 0 is red. Even though the sawmill is full of boards. I've already demolished and rebuilt several times. Nothing happens. What can I do?

that is weird, does it have all the other materials, because I think they will only bring the materials from left to right on the needed materials, so if its missing any material to the left of that it wont bring the planks.

I think the problem is the sawmill

Here is a screenshot. he sawmill is markes as "no ressources" while there is enou8gh wood and the people work on the sawmill. Maybe its bugged and cause the game has statet the sawmill as inactive, the builders cant gather the ressources?

The sawmill has three logs in its internal storage. You have 10 in total (so 7 somewhere else) - I don't know the sawmill ratio, but maybe 3 logs are not enough to get planks? Could be the reason.

Are you sure you produce wood also, and are not stuck because of that?

Very strange. I don't see what the issue could be.
Save the game first, and then try an internal, quick reload by pushing Cntl-Shift-R. See if that dislodges the problem. If not, completely exit the game, close Steam completely, and then try to go back into your game.

There is the little white arrow at the icon of the boards which means they are not allowed to use them (if I am not completely mistaken). Can be changed in the ressource window. It's the second icon called "Bevorratung".

Yeah I was thinking of the "hold back" or "Bevorratung" aswell, but why should he do this during the tutorial?

Oh is that the issue. OP: you may have accidentally pushed a button to "stock pile" your wood. This means that you want to keep storing the item, and not have anyone use or take the item, for any reason. Go to the Resources page in your book. look for the wood line, and see if you clicked the box/star/symbol that toggles the "stock piling" function. Turn it off, and see if that helped.

Hi there.

Totally missed that post. Indeed that was the problem. My son somehow was able to stockpile the planks when i was not there. And i dont recognise it, cause the almanach was not avaible here. Thanks for the help!
