View Full Version : [fixed] Help with transporting goods.
Hiya all,
I have reached the Citizens level and I have all the products they need except Chocolates.
Now, here's my problem.
On one Island I have found Cocoa and on another I can harvest Honey. The Honey is being produced, but I cannot load it into one of my ships. It doesn't even shop up in warehouse.
How do i get the honey from the 2nd Island to the 1st Island? Is there a special building I need if I would like to transport the honey?
Please help....
Are your market carts picking up the honey at the hives?

Click on the warehouse and when you see your goods you shoud see a green arrow on the left or right side of the panel and the honey will show up, I know you can load it as I am doing that in my game right now.
Here's a screenshot to see this green arrows

Thanks for the replies, but there are no market carts picking up the goods.
I have build the following on the island:
1 x Warehouse (Standard Beach Warehouse)
2 x Apiary
1 x Woodcutter
1 x Warehouse
The Apiaries are full with goods, but still the carts are not showing up.
Thanks

Did you build the roads correctly, and is there free space for honey available in the warehouse?
You know what I like about this game? When one thing goes wrong, there are always at least 8 different possible causes.
I have connected the roads correctly and the warehouse is empty, since it has been newly build.
you must connect the road with the honeyfarm just like you do with the woodcuttershut

And correctly would be to take the road all the way up to the building in the center of the apiary, and not just to the edge of the apiary?

Oh, I forgot one quite interesting fact: The standard warehouse (which you can build from your ship) has only one single cart pusher. If you have 5 production units, the cart pusher may not catch up with the production, so it might be that he is simply too slow.
Try to upgrade your warehouse to warehouse II or better III (use the upgrade button at the top of the warehouse bulleye), and build stone roads - they allow the carts to move significantly faster.

I havent tested it yet, but is the stone-over-sand speed difference significant enough to warrant spamming all my towns with it? It used to be more of an artistic and less of an economic advantage.

Significant increase in speed, about twice as fast!

I just might start replacing a few miles then ;)
Thanks Dobber....the roads were only running around the apiary. I connected the roads to the apiary and they are picking the goods up now.
Thanks
