Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I think I can fix this for her (even considering my bad start), or at least, help determine the problem but, it won't be a quick fix.  Especially, if her problem is unique.  She will have to work closely with me though, and it might take quite awhile (as we've both said, not happening to our games makes it hard to diagnose).  I've been doing this for more years than I care to remember (my first computer was in 1979, before the PC was released).  I will approach her again after she returns.




I know she loves the game and I enjoy these challenges.  In the meantime, I will continue with the guide.




Thanks.

And this is exactly what makes the Banished community so enjoyable to be a part of, I've lurked on a few of the Banished fan sites and I'm always impressed with how helpful members try to be. Compared to other game forums where the usual response to someone asking for help is to tell them where the "search" function is found, the Banished community actually seems to want other Banished players to have a good time with the game.




It's really community minded compared to the individually minded (i.e. selfish) members for a lot of other games I've played. I suspect it's due to the nature of people who enjoy the "longer term" & less-action oriented game genres such as city-building, puzzle-solving etc. etc.
