Hi cnm - I'm dare2cnect, and pretty new here. I just read your post and am hoping you can help me some! You sure are further than me! My honey ran out and I don't want my VV's to die! I know that there is supposed to be fruit "high up in the trees", but how the heck do they get to it? I've been concentrating on getting tech points so I could get the next level of "nature" which was supposed to help the food supply to increase but I sure haven't seen an increase! Still 0 food except for the occasional mushroom! Help! What do I do! And what does it mean that the "chief" can do emergency food once a day? How does that happen? Who is the chief? I did manage to plant a tree, not knowing what that is going to do but it will be awhile until it matures. Can you help a little? I do like figuring out as much as I can myself, but I don't want to start over when they all die! I'm kinda starting to love my little villagers!! Thanks much!
