You're welcome, I'm glad I was able to help clear things up rather than confuse the issue more (which I've been known to do on occasion when trying to be helpful)!
Look I am completely stuck on this quest. The only one I need is: Have a production value of 0 every 12 hours for Pinewood.
GrimmReaperKing did you make it past this quest or are you still stuck? If you're still stuck the buffing suggestion will still apply to you.
tnx lady silver..it took me quite awhile to figure this out..just follow your instructions and buff one of my sawmill..
the most important thing here is to have the correct ratios of foresters to cutter to sawmills. Start with 3 foresters to 2 cutters to 4 sawmills. Once you have these, maintain the ratio of 3:2 for the foresters to cutters. Pause anything that may be using pine logs, such as cokers and bowmakers. this will get you past the quest. If need be, buff the foresters and cutters. Then, start bringing the cokers back online one at a time, and monitor the status of your pine wood. when you upgrade or build more to keep production green, maintain your 3:2 ratios. This would all be easier to understand if the quest was rewritten to say: Have a production of zero or better.
[TANCS] is currently looking for a few other guilds with whom to form alliances for the purposes of trade and the eventuality of pvp. Contact me.
I have tried all of these things and am still stuck
I cant seem to get to 0 pinewood deposits. I assume this is related to the foresters (do they 'deposit' pinewood?), as only they have a negative production value in the chain. However, they do not produce anything. While they are working, their eta is N/A. Not entirely surprising, as there are enough trees left and my chain show I don't have any seeds... So, what to do? Pausing cutters and mills just prevents the '360 plank/12H' objective, and even with all of both paused my forester production stays negative.
I have done this one and have all three tasks of "Important Pinewood" checked and green, yet the quest will not "finish"...
What gives? If I have met the requirements why won't it finish and let me collect the rewards??????
UPDATE
FINALLY! Got it!! please excuse the madness *blush*
