No wood in the New World

[tabicat]

I'm playing the campaign for the first time, and just discovered the New World. I messed up on La Isla and I ran out of wood, I have no housing, and no warehouse. I can't seem to buy wood from any neighboring islands.

How do I fix this? Where do I get wood from?

Send from the old world or, depending on your settings, demolish some buildings and get the wood back for them

I'll have to ship from the old world since none of the buildings I have left give me wood.

Thanks.

In the future, you can also use the free workforce from influence bonuses to put a logger and sawmill down by your trading post and let the wood trickle in for a bit.

The problem is that I had no workforce and could build any homes, so I had literally no workers.

you can just send a boat from the new world with timber.

The timber production chain in the new world doesn't require wood to be constructed.

whenever you start a settlement go 1 timber, 1 saw, 1 marketplace and 4 houses. I know it's tempting to start putting a lot of stuff around and far from the warehouse, but it's pretty easy to softlock the game without timber and people to create it in the early stage of a settlement
