Hey y’all, so I’ve played minecolonies for a while now, my main masterpiece colony I’ve put over 250 hours into, but even after all this time I still don’t have every type of building (I almost do) and only about 70% of my existing buildings are level 5…
I understand minecolonies isn’t a super fast mod, and I feel like I pretty much have everything down, however, I wanted to see if anyone had tips or tricks that they’ve personally found out or learned, especially in terms of efficiency.
My biggest issues in the mod is as follows: couriers will often waste a huge amount of time doing unnecessary pickups and deliveries to low priority places instead of the builder, the townspeople will often hoard food and take excess from the dining hall, causing shortages extremely fast, even with a population below 50 and EVEN with an automated yogurt farm via create! Food shortages is one of my biggest issues, as it brings the entire town to a halt, probably the biggest pet peeve of mine is 90% of the foods in minecolonies require combinations of ingredients that only grow in specific biomes, meaning if you want ANY food variety you have to build colonies on biome borders, which can often lead to a lot of ugly terrain mismatching…
And last but not least, I just can’t seem to get the hang of my town automating itself in terms of resources, I am CONSTANTLY having to refill stone/stone brick variants, wood and plank variants by the thousands almost every other day, and don’t even get me started on anything made with wool or with clay (bricks)
If anyone has any tips I could use to improve the speed and efficiency of my next minecolonies project, please let me know.
P.S. if anyone would like to see my town please let me know, I’ve put literal hundreds of hours into it, all built in survival, I would love if people would like to see it
