In Necesse, ensuring your villagers are fed is crucial for their survival. This guide explains how to efficiently manage their food supply.
Feeding Your Villagers
The core mechanic is simple: place food in chests. Once villagers are assigned to a settlement's storage, they'll automatically retrieve and consume food from those chests when hungry. This can be managed through the settlement menu by assigning work to each villager.
Here's a detailed process:
- Craft a chest: Create a chest and fill it with food.
- Assign Storage: With the chest open, click "Settlement Storage" (top right corner) and assign villagers to that chest. They'll now automatically eat from it.
For a more automated approach:
- Establish a Cooking Area: Designate a cooking area within your settlement.
- Assign Cooking Work: Assign villagers to work in the cooking area. Place chests there for ingredient and cooked food storage.
- Provide Ingredients: Supply the villagers with the necessary cooking ingredients. They'll cook and feed themselves.
Optimal Food Choices
Gourmet-tier foods are ideal. The Blueberry Cake recipe is inexpensive and readily available early in the game, making it a cost-effective option.
