My cheif will no longer direct work on the staue which is right in line with the bottem. I put her there and she walks away so the builders will not continue to move it. I know I can't have as many this far up the path but now I can't get anyone to stay there.

Thank you

Maybe checking out this post will help you.

To see what version of the game you have, open your game and then click the MENU button. Then in the bottom-left corner, it will tell you what version of the game you have.

I don't understand where you're saying you have the statue, but remember, for statues that have made notable progress up the hill, you need to place villagers at the bottom of the path to put them on task, not on top of the statue.

Need help there is the alchemy board the cheif the path. There are certain steps to get it done and what comes first second and third and where is the proper placing for master builders ont the path chief placement and how many master builders for the project to be done properly in order of steps.

You can look at the Guide for answers to your questions:

Looks like the statue is the biggest headache for VV3 players lol

My problem with my idiot village is that whenever I go away from the game for more than a few minutes, the chief and everyone walks away from the statue and doesn't move it any more until I put the chief and all the builders back. My statue isn't even up on the hill yet and I've been trying to get them to move it since yesterday! >.<

Also, to whomever made the guide, it really helps a LOT, thank you ^_^

You must take care of what the Action line is telling.
The chief must have "Directing..." and the buiders "Pushing the statue". If the chief stop directing, the builders will not push anymore!

Is anybody sick? Is your fire burning? The chief will abandon a task to look after the sick. Otherwise, he usually doesn't regularly abandon a task when people are still working on it.

What about the dead?

I am having the same problem with the chief not directing work. I have had to restart 3 games...and it still isnt working!! I cannot finish the game.
