Harvesting resources
Harvesting Resources
Territory supports the colony by providing access to food, water, herbs, wood, stone, fish, and other materials. What appears depends on biome, ecology, weather, danger, season, and recent use.
Resource Pressure
- Resources are not infinite. Repeated harvesting can reduce what an area provides.
- Booms, shortages, migration, drought, algae growth, storms, and other ecological conditions can change local yields.
- Different biomes support different supplies.
Where Supplies Go
Direct territory harvesting can add resources to the appropriate colony storage when the action succeeds. Supplies found during pet-led trips are handled differently: they must fit into that pet's carrying space and may need to be unloaded after the pet returns.
Freshness Matters
Food, fish, herbs, and water are not timeless icons. Perishable supplies can spoil or become unsafe depending on weather and storage conditions. Check the Colony Pulse and storage dens regularly.
