One little change to Couriers has been that they will now pick up items from other warehouses than they are assigned to. So, if you have some crazy automation, and you use something like Applied Energistics to fill a warehouse without couriers with goods-they will pick up and use those goods to supply your colony.
These tutorials are fantastic - thank you so much! Have you got plans in the works for a request system tutorial - I did search but maybe didn't find it? My builders' requirements aren't being picked up by the clipboard, AND my couriers aren't picking up any requests on the clipboard even though I know the resources are in the warehouse. I'm having to manually place requests in the couriers inventory. If I put something from a builder's resource list that hasn't made it to the clipboard, the courier puts the thing back into the warehouse. Sometimes if I fire/rehire the couriers they reset, but not always. Anyways - thanks again! I'm off to minecolonies wiki to search (again).
Sadly not, just 1 hut per build. Some styles do allow for integrated couriers within their warehouse though, so can have a few of them built inside, without making standalone courier huts
Is there any way to know what's in the warehouse without directly interacting with the block? As in, from a distance? Because it's hard to know what I can request via postbox or should send to warehouse without knowing what's already in it.
@@AgitaPlumPlay Damn, that's really unfortunate. Hopefully the devs will add some sort of manifest or catalogue item in future. Anyway, great tutorial. :) If you ever do updated versions of these down the road, you might want to include comparison of the # of racks between warehouse build styles.
Efficiency would depend more on what you wanted your Colony to do, but I would say to have a Warehouse in the centre of the Colony, and then have all your other builds surrounding it. That way Couriers don't need to travel long distances between builds and the warehouse
@@AgitaPlumPlay How many bakeries do you think I should make to supply a BIG (emphasis on big) colony? Where should I place my barracks and any tips with city walls, are they worth? (Keep in mind I'm still learning this mod, so I use creative, materials aren't a problem)
@@CtWolffe one or two Bakeries, but maybe share the load between them, so only teach one Bakery a specific recipe so it's all they do, and the other their own recipe. Saves multiple requests stacking on the one Bakery
@@CtWolffe have multiple Barracks if you have a big Colony, each upgraded can have a lot of guards to protect your idiots. Stick them in places with lots of builds, your workers will be happy. And walls are a good deterant to any Raids on your Colony, so consider building walls all around it. Even inner walls incase they do break the outer walls will give a bit of defense
@@AgitaPlumPlay okay, thanks! On a side note, I have around 122 guards in my colony lol. Experimented with mobs, raids and even "Ice and fire" mobs. My colony is safe from mostly everything, probably gonna get a couple of save files just to mess around with them
Pay Rise. PAY RISE. PAY!!! Never. If anything they should pay you for putting up with them 😉 Hey I saw that there is now a Hive build style. Looks interesting for a underground or inside a mountain build. Edit: Seriously though why is there no Tax Collector mod so you can tax Villager's. I got that SimCity itch that always needs to be scratched. Give me Ur VR money lol
@@AgitaPlumPlay oh. I, sorry to be that guy, assumed it was a standard thing in an update or something. I'm still running an OLD version so can't confirm. But...wait. Quick type and ok theres a TH-camr called Kysen. He does colony vids too. He's done a video on different styles, just a rough vid not like Ur explanation filled vid with Ur voice, and he shows it in there. Take a gander. Maybe u got an update waiting for u that u didn't know about
i have a level one warehouse and a level two courier hut... it wont give me the option to hire a second worker... what am i doing wrong lol...do i have to make another courier hut?
Yes only one Courier can be hired per hut, so you will need 2 Courier Huts to have 2 Couriers working. Levelling up a Courier Hut just makes the worker in it better at their job
Can someone help me with something how do you get to the file I opened the config file and there is two minecolonies one for client and when I open it it has three different settings neighborbuildingrending = true Enablecitizenvoices = true Colonyteamborders = true The other one is for common and has Generatesuppyloot = false Can some one help me plz I can only have one tavern in my 1.16.5 world but in my 1.18.2 world I can have four that is all I have tried
No I just downloaded the mod pack and when making my colony I placed down a tavern and after maybe 5 hours of gameplay I had another 3 being built then again I was building it the sky with only one way down beside the mine
Yes using the Builders tool when choosing a position for the build, two blue options will appear bottom right of the interface if in Creative, which lets you instantly build it

Fantastic! Finally, a clear tutorial without having to watch barbarians attack, or mistakes made. Please do more and I will binge watch and recommend!
This man has easily helped me understand the mechanics of this modpack and I'm always searching him out for more tutorials! My colony has you to thank
Thank you for this explanation, and especially for the showcase at the end! I was looking all over for a comparison of the styles!
My official first thought after discovering your channel: "Scott manley prepared me for this day"
That a good or a bad thing lol?
The random twack on the child at 0:37 🤣
Thanks for the video, very informative yet again. I learned a few things that I had missed before.
Tried killing a courier but it revived and chased me all over the desert. Dude was determined.
Always show them who's boss
Thank you so much, this was extremely clear and helpful! :)

These "Everything About" MineColonies explanations are amazing! Do you plan on doing ALL the buildings, or has that series come to an end?
I still plan on making more, they just take a lot of time to create, but there are more tutorials in the pipeline 😀
Enchanter build tutorial pls!!!
i used sort and it just deleted all of my items
can we use more than 1 block of curries huts in one curriers house?
Sadly not, just 1 hut per build. Some styles do allow for integrated couriers within their warehouse though, so can have a few of them built inside, without making standalone courier huts
Is there any way to know what's in the warehouse without directly interacting with the block? As in, from a distance? Because it's hard to know what I can request via postbox or should send to warehouse without knowing what's already in it.
Not to my knowledge, I believe you can only check from the warehouses storage interface

Could you make an efficient city plan and some tips with recipes? I'd love to make my colony automated

What’s the song you use at the very beginning? The oldie sounding one?
PS banger video!
Jambalaya Stomp by Fly Guy Five (brilliant artists btw) and also thank you!
Do you think these little chaps deserve a pay rise?
Pay Rise. PAY RISE. PAY!!! Never. If anything they should pay you for putting up with them 😉

@@AgitaPlumPlay thank you so much ... love your videos btw :) slowly getting through them all while trying to learn this mod
can I build extra racks and put them in my warehouse in order to expand capacity?
no you cant, each lv of warehouse expands for quite bit (with racks). at lv 5 you can in gui warehouse upgrade separately for even more space
Thanks for the tutorial
Can someone help me with something how do you get to the file I opened the config file and there is two minecolonies one for client and when I open it it has three different settings
neighborbuildingrending = true
Enablecitizenvoices = true
Colonyteamborders = true
The other one is for common and has
Generatesuppyloot = false
Can some one help me plz I can only have one tavern in my 1.16.5 world but in my 1.18.2 world I can have four that is all I have tried
Never mind I was looking at game config not world config
@@dragonwolf1619 I'm glad you figured it out. You have 4 Taverns in your 1.18 world? That's awesome, did you change a config for that?
No I just downloaded the mod pack and when making my colony I placed down a tavern and after maybe 5 hours of gameplay I had another 3 being built then again I was building it the sky with only one way down beside the mine
thanks !
Is there a way to instant build in creative mode?
Yes using the Builders tool when choosing a position for the build, two blue options will appear bottom right of the interface if in Creative, which lets you instantly build it
3rd Comment. Get in there my son. I just gotta be Faster next time :)
Omg i'm so dumb, i was wandering for like 30 minutes why i can't choose anyone as a courier while i didn't even make them the house first
