    About Timberborn:
    Mankind turned Earth into a dry wasteland and perished, but some species adapted and evolved. Choose one of the unique beaver factions and see how long your colony can last!
    Wet and dry seasons
    Prepare your settlement for recurring droughts. Stockpile on food and keep fields and forests alive even after rivers dry up. Rely on both natural water sources and artificial irrigation to keep the land arable.
    River control
    Redirect rivers, put up dams and dig water canals with explosives - beavers of the future have millennia of experience in water engineering. But be careful, uncontrolled flooding is as deadly as a dynamite blast!
    Lumberpunk
    Turn timber into sophisticated machinery, buildings, and monuments. Wood is the core resource in Timberborn, but the most advanced structures require metal. To find it, send your scavengers to the ruins of the old world.
    Vertical architecture
    Create a thriving beaver settlement using a modular, vertical architecture system. Space is limited, so stack lodges and workshops on top of each other, cover hills with fields, and set up a power grid for your growing population.
    Day and night cycle
    Build a prosperous city with efficient production chains and beaverish nighttime activities. Follow the lives of individually simulated inhabitants throughout their day and celebrate when the next generation is born!
    Wellbeing
    Satisfy the needs of your colonists to extend their lifespan and make them happier. An evolved beaver's lifestyle is not just "work, sleep and chomp on wood". Balanced diet, decorations, temples, even carousels - you take care of it all.
    Beaver societies
    Control different beaver factions, each with unique style, buildings, and gameplay traits. While some beavers are expert farmers, another family might rely on rapid industrialization. Choose what fits your playstyle!
    Map editor
    Play on one of the included maps or create your own and share it with the community! With hills of different height, ruins scattered in the desert, and all life depending on access to water, each map poses a different challenge.
    ...and more!
    We regularly add new features and iterate, based on the community's feedback. We’re making the world’s first beaver city-builder and we want to make it special, so stay in the loop and add Timberborn to your wishlist today!

    Simple tip: don't be afraid to construct temporary districts for the sake of distant water projects like dams at the edge of the map. These can be supplied entirely by the mother district if need be, especially if you don't transfer too many beavers.

  • @belltowersubductions5104
    @belltowersubductions5104 2 года назад +48

    Some additions to the tips:
    When moving a district centre, delete the path in front of the good district centre, build the new district centre wherever you want without needing to add a district gate, then go to the old one and migrate the entire population to the new one just before you delete it. Obviously, do this when paused, or this will cause the entire district to instantly grind ti a halt.
    Berries can be used as a food source in the mid or late game, long after farms have been set up, since they are great for low populations. Since they don't need to be replanted or tended to, you can set a forester to plant tone bunch and from then on you only need one beaver who can be relied upon to provide a continual harvest of berries in a situation where you don't have enough workers to replant a field of crops sustainably. Berries will always be there, slightly less nutritious, but they're actually really great in emergencies.
    Even though your growing space may look limited, all those tiles at the very edge of a green area with just a few scraps of grass are exactly as healthy and fertile as the 200% green spots. Do not waste them.
    Although you cannot place 1-block high platforms over stairs, *you can place 2-block high platforms over them.* Words cannot Express how useful this is.
    If you scroll up or down while holding alt, you will scroll up and down through the layers of buildings, even down to making your bridges seem to disappear. This is great for planning or placing paths in very densely packed, vertical structures. I found this out by accident, because my Discord push to talk button is alt, and I was so incredibly confused how my buildings just seemed to keep disappearing, until I figured it out.
    During a drought, *TURN OFF YOUR WATER PUMPS!* During a drought, leaving your water pumps on unless you are 100% out of water in your storage tanks can be a death sentence, particularly in the early game when your one and only water reservoir is used for both irrigation and drinking, and even into the layegame if you're as bad at planning as I am. It's best to build another reservoir on higher ground than your main one, so that if you run out of water in your water tanks you can replace the water you pump out quickly, before the water level gets low enough that evaporation becomes a really, really big problem. Don't waste your irrigation water in a drought, you can refill your water tanks once you have a steady supply again in the wet season.
    I might add more later, but wow... this might be one of the first city builder games I've played that draws me in this deep. I have problems with over-planning, being too ambitious, but this game forced me to take it one step at a time, because planning too far ahead is a near instant death sentence if you aren't careful. Don't leave that paused farmhouse there unbuilt! That land could be used for crops! Every scrap of land counts! It places me more, helps me control my ADHD and prevents me from burning out rapidly. Great game, I would reccomend it to anyone interested in city builders, even if you're like me and have difficulty sticking with them despite how much you love and enjoy them. This is worth it.
    And thank you for the tips, some of these are very helpful, it's been a long time since I watched a tips video because I was actually looking for tips, and not because I just wanted something funny or interesting to watch despite knowing full well that I would never need to use any such tips. Distribution posts and districts in general are my worst enemies in this game, and your advice on them combined with your advice on fully separating and specialising warehouses in particular are really bits of advice I wish I had long ago...

    Here's something I found useful on my last attempt at hard mode.
    Beavers will not use food and water in another district, even if the resources are within range of the center, so it's possible to build up an emergency stockpile of food and water that will be untouches should you run out back home.
    Folktails adults will reproduce when they have space in their housing, so the single beaver housing can be used to prevent population growth. *Found this one out acidentally and wondered why my very old beavers wheren't having babies.

  • @Flareton
    @Flareton 2 года назад +20

    Something else to note is that, while beavers won't use storage from other districts, they will build there if it's within range. This lets you prebuild important buildings before moving anyone in.

    • @jaquigreenlees
      @jaquigreenlees 2 года назад

      In the opposite, you do not need to have district boundaries next to each other. With the "recommended" map your first district is near the map centre, you can make district 2 and 3 to the exit point of the river and to where the big hole that can easily be filled if you have explosives even though they are far enough away the borders of the districts don't touch. Going to the exit point and putting dams across the river right there, you never have the lower part of the river dry up.
      You can scavenge metal in both locations, the upper river can be dammed and overflow to exit near the first district. You can blast a single wide canal to let water flow towards the lower right corner. Build a levee based canal from right near water source across to the highlands in the upper left corner.

  • @Skirakzalus
    @Skirakzalus Год назад +5

    About seasonal jobs like science huts: At some point the devs added the option to prioritize job sites, so you can just keep the "filler" jobs running at low priority now and beavers will just do those when the more urgent stuff is not available. Once there's vacancies in the essential tasks again they'll just go do that.

  • @HyunMoKoo
    @HyunMoKoo 2 года назад +15

    Only the resource gathering build it self has to be in the range of the district center. Then the beavers can travel somewhat outside the district center's range to gather resources. For example, in the map you're using for the hard mode you can actually reach two metal ruins (east and north) from your default district center by making as straight a road as possible to the site and placing the metal gathering flags at the very end of the reach of the district center.

    • @bloodgain
      @bloodgain 2 года назад

      Gathering can also overlap districts in this way. Multiple districts can gather in an area if their flags are in range, and the foresters can overlap planting areas. I haven't tested this with farming yet, but a split-district artificially irrigated farm is on my near-term projects.

  • @greatdndstories
    @greatdndstories 2 года назад +8

    fun tip if you have an effective explosive production system destroy ur roads one at a time place explosives, then build platforms and place road on top, this way water flows wherever ur roads are(if u plan it properly) meaning a significant amount of the map will get water. works very well on default map and lakes map

    • @laughingvampire7555
      @laughingvampire7555 Год назад +1

      I have seen another tip, the best way to use water on dryland is you make a single tile hole with explosives and then you place a water dump, then the beavers will fill it with water and the water dump will just green the dry land with larger radius than an irrigation tower.
      but making your roads into water canal saves a lot of space, RealCivilEngineer also used this and added a power shaft under the platforms reusing the canal and saving more space.

    Water flow downstream of a dam can be pretty inconsistent, once you have access to floodgates replacing one or two tiles with them and keeping them fully open during the wet season will let the flow be much more consistent which is great for power production.

    some UI tipps:
    - you can switch through the terrain/build-levels by the buttons in the top right corner below the work hours adjustment.
    - if you click any built building the resources lists gets a green background and shows only stuff belonging to it's respective district. (doesn't work with buildings under construction, 'cause they actually doesn't even exist yet and aren't part of any district).
    - the field left to the date has a drop down menu (green arrow) which lets you quick select even far away districts.

    If you want to reposition your District Center and keep all the same population there, you can create a temporary new district first. Then in the middle of the night when all the beavers are asleep (so none of them will actually leave), migrate everyone to the temporary district. Delete and replace the center, then migrate everyone back. They'll never even get out of bed so you won't lose any time, and you can keep all the same beavers there if that's something you want to do.

  • @kefler187
    @kefler187 Год назад +1

    A tip for efficiency. If your pumps are inside your dams and you don't pump during the dry season, set inventors huts to the lowest priority so that when you pause all your water pumps, they will go to unfilled positions, primarily this should only be the inventors huts that are left empty.
    Another is to set work place priorities in the order you want them filled, this is what the function is for, so use it that way. Food and water production should be the only buildings at the highest priority to ensure critical services are always filled. If you have multiple of each, place the extra that's not needed to maintain your population on the second lowest priority so other jobs can be filled before they start making a ton of extra water or food stock.
    Never plant anything but maple trees except for pine that is needed for resin only. You pay a hefty time penalty for trying to grow and harvest other types of trees other than maple on subsequent plantings. The first cycle of maples will be brutal but you can just cut down the pine you planted for resin early on until your maple trees mature for the first time. Don't plant more than 15 to 20 pine trees, you won't need that much in the long run, it only serves as your source of wood at the start and less than half of them are needed for resin later game.

    Not sure if anyone else has said this, but you can power buildings through warehouses. So you could build a raw resource warehouse, a production building, and the output resource building in a row and just run power to the first warehouse. This also works with stacking. Put you production building on top of your warehouse and power the warehouse. Makes for more compact builds.

    Not only do I love your regular content, but you're posting bonus content, in someone's lovely words' "Oh happy days!" Great tips, and I love the one especially about Beaver housing!! After all, beavers do have their homes accessible via waterways, it's a dry bed; well insulated and cosy; but it's still accessible by water; so to see yours set up in this way is such a wonderful idea. :)
    Beavers are natural earth movers, I'd love to see them be able to move dirt around, so not only can you hollow out pasture land, you can also build it up, in your case, higher to the water source. Admittedly, it's why you may want to hydrate the land; however if there isn't enough land, you need to move it first, hahaha!!

    Tip: overburdening your power system slightly is not a bad thing.
    It only lowers your efficiency a slight bit but allows still all products to be produced at a slower but constant rate.
    I saw you always micromanage your power system that you always had free or matched power. Even though you could have just set it so efficiency could have been at 75% or even 50%.
    Especially when your beavers are not able to keep 100% efficiency because of resource import/export.

    3:10 Even on the Plains map, on Medium difficulty, it’s quite doable to build a Dam 6-7 tiles wide, before the first Drought, although you have to be savvy about it, and not follow the Tutorial slavishly. Set up at least 3 Lumberjacks, preferably 4 or 5. Otherwise follow the Tutorial until it tells you to build the Water Wheel. Ignore that and build the Dam. Once the Dam is built, then construct the Water Wheel and follow the Tutorial again.

    Here's 10 tips of my own, some of them obvious, mentioned in your playthrough series but not in the tips videos.
    If possible, concentrate at the start on chopping down the dead trees. The living ones won't die in a drought. The dead ones are already dead!
    Build housing, 'factories', storage buildings etc. as much as possible on unirrigated land. You need the irrigated land for planting and water gathering.
    Make sure that water wheels are placed parallel to the flow of water, otherwise they don't work.
    Build water pumps upstream of your dams. Try to keep them away from water wheels, they seem to slow the flow of water.
    When there is a drought, look what areas downstream of your dams 'dry out'. Avoid planting food in those areas. It might die. Trees though should survive.
    You can pause residences so that beavers don't move in. This can be especially useful in drought situations when beavers are dying. You can introduce 'birth control' by pausing residences. Kits are hungry, thirsty and don't do any work, so they are a burden on your colony when there is a food/water problem. Don't pause too many, otherwise you will have homeless beavers that don't get the advantage of all the 'buffs' from scenery, monuments, etc at night. They just sleep anywhere.
    Until you are ready to start flooding areas on the map, extend your colony downstream. The further downstream you dam, the longer the water is held upstream, keeping your land irrigated. Go upstream to start the structures that divert water into unirrigated areas, but make sure you still allow some flow down the original river.
    When you have reached the boundary of a district and want a new one, place a builders hut just before the gate into the new district. The builders in the old district will build some of the initial buildings in the new district (within a certain range) of their hut, before you've moved any beavers in!
    After placing the district gate, try running a path to where you want the new District centre to be. Place it, click on it, and see whether the red/green/amber path distance extends right up to the gate. If not, it's too far away from the old district.
    If you click on a district centre building, the stats in the top left are for that district only. Click on the name to change it.
    There's a hidden console in the game, ALT + SHIFT + Z toggles some new options on the toolbar, including a very limited editor, and a clickable 'Development console' button above the 'alerts' on the bottom left of the screen contains some cheats, and additional camera and game speed controls. ALT + SHIFT + X toggles the display of a debug mode panel, and uses the camera controls to move a 'pin' and 'blob' about to learn about individual tiles on the map.

    Waterway and storage optimization: Source -> primary reservoir -> map-length canals/troughs for crop irrigation set with water wheels along their length for power production -> secondary reservoir with pumps for thirsty beavers -> canal back towards water source or third reservoir which has a re-entry point either to the primary reservoir or some other point on map (or near source/primary reservoir) with pump and water drop build for water-cycling and lastly a step near that end stage with a dam to prevent overflowing/floading of your primary or secondary reservoirs. manaaging water levels means you can control water FLOW, which can be used to keep water wheels operational even during a long drought.
    TL;DR: Placing your pumps AFTER your waterwheels can lengthen the time the waterwheels run even during early game droughts before you have the reservoirs fully set up.

    My most interesting finding is that once you unlock dynamite you can grow stuff whereever you want. Just explode one tile and put a waterdump to it. It creates a green zone of about 12 tiles around it which is enough for 2-3 farms. Needs a refill every two weeks or just keep one beaver employed.

    • @davebcf1231
      @davebcf1231 2 года назад +2

      You don't even need to get to dynamite first to do that. Just use four levee blocks, leaving an open square in the middle. Then place the water dump and fill up the empty square between the blocks.

    Is it too late to comment on this? I have some tips that I usually use.
    1. Constructing an artificial river in order to obtain massive amounts of energy.
    2. Detonate the land and construct platforms and roads on top of it (just make sure your water doesn't run to another level; it also means a larger surface area and faster evaporation).
    3. Build platforms on the river so you can place buildings on them, so you can maximize your land for farming.

  • @TheInvertedCow
    @TheInvertedCow 2 года назад +3

    Suggestion when moving a district. Rather than delete then move the building place a town gate and new district, order the move of all beavers in the active town district to the new one delete the old and now empty district center, followed by the gate. reconnect the road, then unpause the game. You should have no variance in the activities if the beavers in the district.

    I'm a day late on this, but one tip I didn't realize until I tested it out. And it blew my mind the first time I did it:
    Explosives work even if they're submerged in water!
    I thought they wouldn't because, you know, explosives need some kind of lit fuse. So I kept waiting for droughts to set off explosives I'd set up in water ways. But on a whim, I thought "This SHOULDN'T work, but..." and tried it. Boom! Explosive went off and it set off all the others near it in the usual chain reaction.

    What about aestetics?
    I started adding shrubs and (sparesly) beaver statues to effect rhe working places, not only the lodgings.
    I.e. inbetween your elevated farms add a platform( as not to deter traffic) and place a shrub there, one tile is enough to mark the entire building

    • @tuxino
      @tuxino 2 года назад

      The best places are where more beavers go. And decorations don't care about verticality, it seems. So if you have the beaver homes in stacks, a single shrub can fill the Aesthetics bar of all the beavers in up to four stacks of lodgings while they sleep. I'm not sure how long it takes for the satisfaction bars to deplete, but if they need to be replenished during a workday, your idea should work for that. Also remember to include heavily trafficked areas to get the haulers.

    My question is: if you dig-out a small slope with dynamite, put a water-pump at the bottom, a water dump at the top, and a water-wheel in-between...can you create enough waterflow to move the water-wheel and create a perpetual-motion machine?!

    • @tuxino

      You need more than one dump to give enough flow for a two-wide canal, and probably also more than one pump, and evaporation exists, so it isn't going to be an entirely self-sufficient system, but yes, you can do that.
