Resources

From Foundation - Wiki

Resources are the materials required to sustain and expand the village. Primarily acquired via villagers in their respective workplace, they can also be acquired via trading and Quests.

Overview

Resources can be split into the following categories: food, common goods, luxury goods, tavern goods, weapons and materials. The variety available and needed of each type increases with village growth; Newcomers and Serfs can be satisfied with a single food type and their buildings constructed with Wood and Stone. Once resources have been obtained, they must be stored in either a Granary (food-based goods) or a Warehouse.

The resources available to the village can be seen in the resources overview at the top of the screen. As more become available, the first two rows will fill with those resources marked as favourites by default. Players can see all resources by clicking the small plus at the center of the resource overview's bottom border. Favourites can be changed in the Resources page of the Book by clicking the star icon on the far left of each row.

Food

Food is a basic necessity required by villagers of all levels. All food types are stored in Granaries and acquired by villagers via Food Stalls in the Market. The only exceptions to this are Tavern Meals, which are created and consumed within Taverns, Monastic Meals, which are created in Monastic Kitchens and consumed in Refectories, and War Rations, which are created in the Provisioner and consumed by military companies on some military quests.
