Hi. the following bug is still present in castaways and has been for some time. if a building is destroyed, peasants still try to deliver supplies to it. for example, my tavern was just destroyed, and my peasants still tried to deliver food to it a minute or so later. and it wasn't old messages

2011-10-11 Thread alex wallis
Hi list. I just had a cool idea for another disaster that could be added to castaways. what about having the possibility that your cook could burn down the tavern, and on high difficulty levels, you could add in that the tavern could be burned by the fire, and also buildings in other squares

[Audyssey] question about placement of walls in castaways

hi list. I am just wondering, how does the placement of walls work in castaways? do walls always have to be built between things so for example two bits of forest or two rocky fields, is building the wall between two objects what determines what direction the wall is facing? so for example, in
