In later eras, sell off your obsolete items to free space, even if you only get 1 value. A single item will take up a whole storage slot (eg.Produce them until you can produce bows and fishing lines. Bones spears and bone hooks have the same core stats as their flint versions, and you usually have plenty of bones from hunting.The exception are goods like fishing lines which are great for trading. You will have the majority of your population doing nothing except farming. Set things like axes and picks to x10, 15, 20 depending on your population. As you grow, gradually decrease the % of tools your produce.Tools are fundamental to your whole operation. Set all crafting, leather, skins production to high priority.You often can't harvest all of your crops until the season finishes with earlier sickle versions. When you get Bronze and Steel, build sickles first. Once you have a lot of farms setup, you will need at least 75% sickles.Consider building 10 of each just for the knowledge points, and beelining to Bronze tools which are actually better. Copper tools provide no stat upgrades compared to earlier versions.Make sure you have plenty of wood and stone stockpiles all around your village.

Try to focus your deforestation, tannins and gathering in one big section, and leave another area for hunting. Humans moving into forested areas seems to disrupt and discourage animals from being/spawning there.Set a limit of 30 for a useful tradeable item. Tannins are easy to gather by children and worth 1 value in all eras.Set a limit of say 30 (make sure you have plenty of storage space - remember you start with storage hut available to build) with two people gathering from a large and abundant area. Remember that you can double right click to get people to run. You will need to micromanage hunting parties (also useful for knowledge). At the start/middle of the game, raw skins are a bottleneck.On the way back, the season will have advanced and your people will freeze to death. Avoid sending out huge hunting parties just before Winter.Trees will grow back naturally and are completely renewable. Find a wooded area without food trees, and an area that you don't use for tannins, and set a massive wood cutting work order on the whole area.Make sure you have plenty of wood storage areas to stockpile the resource for later eras, when your upgraded houses will demand logs for fuel. Once you unlock farming, you will begin to chop down a *lot* of trees.Once you have underground mining, you will struggle to exhaust your natural flint supply. Don't worry about running out of ores or flint.
