How to Feed Villagers in Necesse

In Necesse, ensuring your villagers are fed is crucial for their survival. This guide details how to effectively manage villager sustenance.

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, assigning work and storage directly to each settler.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Craft a chest: Create a chest using your crafting menu.
2. Add food: Place food items inside the chest.
3. Assign storage: While the chest is open, locate the "settlement storage" option (usually in the top-right corner). Assign your villagers to this chest.

That's the basic method. For a more automated approach:

1. Establish a cooking area: Designate a space within your settlement for cooking.
2. Place chests: Position several chests within the cooking area as designated storage.
3. Assign cooking work: Assign villagers to work in the cooking area.

This allows villagers to cook and feed themselves, requiring only ingredient provision from you.

Optimal Food Choices

Gourmet-tier food items are generally the most efficient. The Blueberry Cake recipe is a cost-effective and early-game accessible option.
