With "Blocking" I often see people say and even mods say that blocking is not supported by BB.... What exactly does 'not supported' mean?
In the in-game description of the MoD general in the shop, it says "- Appropriate for locking and blocking"
If it just means - block at your own risk that is fine, but I sort of get the impression that blocking is frowned upon by the comments made.
Thanks in advance for clearing this up :)

why dont we have resorts and airports for our island. secondly y cant we have our elite troop totals seperate from our reg troop totals to make things easier for us.
When can we have a recycling event to rid our stars of unwanted items and get either gems or crystals for them?
Is there a reason why the Bookbinder can only load one book at a time? It would be nice to be able to line up the books just like the Barracks and Provision House do their items. Thanks.
When will the skill trees feature for the generals be released in the main game and will we get a free book move day (or week) to help us?
Could the old (explorer and geo) and new features be given a better explanation also please as to what their effects are?
(I put in map frags skill thinking if i got frags i would just get a higher amount, but i seem to get more frags slots instead)
This Q&A is a great idea btw!
Why Hasn't we got the "put order to the top of the queue" for barrack/ Provision house yet? For example, I queued a lot of bread for cooking in Provision house, but the new guild quest come out asks me to produce at least 30 Aunt Irma's gift basket, I will have to cancel the whole queue (took a lot of time, each clicks results in a wait of 5-10 secs). If we have this button, I can just insert 30 Aunt Irma's gift baskets to be produced next.
Is it intended game design or is it hard to implement such function?
BB_Aeyline, What might top your personal wish list for a new and improved game feature?
Cheers!
Hello,
To keep/enhance the Medieval milieu of the game, would you please consider expanding on that theme? Had you thought of expanding the economy to include more of what was going on domestically at that time in Europe, such as bee keeping, more diverse crafting, and possibly a way to convert homes into a great Lordly manor with walls and smaller huts/lodging for peasants, without affecting current population? I just want to encourage the creative staff to explore this further! Thank you.
In the PvP arena, I would very much like a conquered island to be untouchable for a full day (or two!), due to the heavy drain of resources needed to participate in PvP. It is almost assured that a conquered island that rewards titanium and iron ore, for instance, will be snatched away all too soon. Thanks for your consideration of this.
Keep up the great work!

Can we get a full refund for books for limited time?
whats the difference between ignoring someone and blocking someone?

And someone has to ask - otherwise no-one will be able to sleep at night ... What is your favourite fridge magnet Aeyline ;-)Quote:

Hello.
These are of the most important questions:
1. Do you love bacon?
2. If so, how do you cook them?
3. Do you think we will ever get a BACON BUFF?
Thank you!
Will the new generals - Anslem, Nusala, and Vargus - be available through other avenues than the Christmas event. Say, for gems, or other events?
Also, will there be a culling of adventures and/or a new effort to make new adventures, or maybe rework the reward/xp values of some adventures?
Hello BB and Aeyline
Are than any plans or work in progress to change THE Order of Battle so players have a direct hand commanding their brave troops in battle ?

hi i am new to the game and i was just wondering something as i searched through the architect section of the shop.
will there ever be an endless iron mine available for purchase? Or will that break the game too much i mean i think it would be a great idea even if you are limited to only 1 or maybe 2 of them
How many seconds does it take for a general to march the distance of 1 flag?
Does MOD_Arylide2 ever sleep? cause whenever I'm online so is she...
Meep
They are already available via the item shop for gems...Quote:

Why do all buildings and camps have only 1 entrance?
Why do those entrances point to the south east (down & right)?
Why does the Improved Storehouse deviate from this. It points to the south west (down & left)?
why is what we can get with guild coin so limited, is there any could add a bit more to what we can get with our guild coinwhen at times it takes alot to get with troops doing adv's ans res. im asking if could add more stuff for us to get with our guild coin's.
thank you Rage47
Do you plan on doing another "Move your buildings Free day"?
Have you ever thought of making an adventure recycler? Where you could trade in the adventures you don't do for Map fragments or something?
Thanks!
do you do anyhting special for people birthdays and when dose the easter event start
I always wonder what will be the punishment for those who violates the game's code of conduct, and what has been done to those reported misbehaviour. Shall there be some public notice of such treatment as a result of report and warning for other players?
Question on Generals/Marshalls. WHy can't Generals move as fast across the map as Marshalls? Having them basically crawl so slow makes me not want to run those anymore. The speed of the Marshall seems much more reasonable.
THanks!
Will we see an 'App' version of this game down the road?
How do I get past the quest that requires using a medpack on a general on my island, if Ihave alreday conquered everyone on teh island and cant now use a general there?
How many people on the Settlers Online team draw the artwork this game uses? It looks like only one or two at most draw everything because the style is similar. If so, that is quite an accomplishment.
Even if many produce the artwork, there must be one main artist. I would love to see work he has created outside of this game if it is posted on the Internet, to compare it to what he has composed for this game.
It must be difficult to draw settings and characters which make use laugh. That is why I ask about your talented artist or artists.
Excelsior seems to be a futuristic vehicle yet many adventures have rather ancient characters. If this were to take place on earth, what year would TSO be in?
any chance they are going find them on hunts
why dont you add population capacity to expedition water castle at different level ?
Hello,
I was wondering, is it possible for you to create a full delete option or a prioritized-option in the provision house. Sometimes when you have a large queue filled up there is no way to prioritize which one you want done first so you need to remove any that are not priority.
Thanks
Has the issue with the Easter event for players level 51 being required to produce mahogany planks for the second task of the second quest, but being unable to do so until level 52 been corrected? I haven't received any feedback from my support ticket except the initial reply of:
Thank you for contacting The Settlers Online support regarding test server issues. Support does not have any access to accounts made for the test server. This server is not supported and is only used to test out new or upcoming additions to the actual game on the regular server. The developers take the server down from time to time to add, remove, or adjust new features and content. We apologize but we are unable to assist with any issues regarding the test server.
and have only seen two posts from Aeyline in the forum thread I posted:

Hello Settlers,
Thank you for reporting this inconsistency. I have asked the developers to review the quest requirements and investigate this. Let me know if there are any other questions or concerns regarding the upcoming event!
See you in-game,
BB_Aeyline
Hello there SirKeither,
Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns about the upcoming Easter Event. As I explained on February 13th, the developers have been notified of the reported inconsistencies. As you may be aware, the version available on the test server does not represent the final content of the Easter Event, and players are asked to leave their feedback on the official test server forum so that appropriate changes can be made.
While we understand that unexpected issues can be frustrating, our team is constantly striving to address eventual problems that may arise in order to provide a pleasurable gaming experience for all our players. The Developer's Diary for the event hasn't been finalized yet, but we will share more details with everyone as soon as more information becomes available.
Thank you,
BB_Aeyline
I have to admit to sharing SirKeither's concerns, I reported the issue over a month ago now and having the problem referred to as "unexpected issues is frustrating.
I personally am no longer effected as I was able to reach level 52 and have built and upgraded my saw mill, but worry for the other level 51 players that may be impacted by this unexpected issue.
How many people in the world (and even out of this world) are playing Settlers Online?
Finding gems on treasure searches would be ace? Is this something you may consider in the future?
Why do buffs only increase output and not input? Anno increases both output and input. Not saying one is right or wrong, just curious why the difference.
Could it be possible for the order of items in the star menu to be manually moved around? Or for there to be the ability to dismiss (or hide from view) marshalls?
I log into settlers online through steam, everyday, yet if I want to go to the forum it tells me they haven't seen me for a long time? also I added a signature to my profile, however, doesn't work in my mail. is that because I log in through steam??
