This is a part of the copy protection in the game. Q - Hello.I'd like to ask you if you know anything about the bug wich converts my metal into pigs? The settlers will then move the weapons to the new barracks and you will be able to recruit soldiers. This is a bug in Settlers 3, and it just happens. Otherwise, there's nothing to do but to burn your barracks and build a new one.

If you have enough free settlers, and plenty of weapons lying by your barracks, you should make sure that you haven't set the recruiting to "manual" and if so, try and recruit some soldiers. Remember that if the merchendise will have to be transported over land as wellm you have to put up road signs where you see the water. Pick out the things you want to move, and a target for the merchendise. In the landingdock menu, a list of all the merchendise you can transport over water will appear. After that, you build a transport ship so that In the near, you should also construct a landing dock. What you have to do first is to build a shipyard, so that you later on can build ships. Q - I have problem with sending goods via trade ship to another island. Only new soldiers will be promoted, and for each promotion will it take longer time until the counter reaches 100%. Under the Settlers - Recruitment menu, can you see how your promoting is going. When you have offered the Gods enough to drink, you can promote one of your soldier types. From there on will the Gods take care of the alchohol, and then giving you better soldiers. The grain or rice will then move on to a destillery, from where a beverage will be delivered to a small temple. And if you are playing the asians, you'll need to build a rice farm close to a swamp, since that is where the rice will grow. This is different depending on your race.

For this do you have to build some sort of farm, that makes the base of the beverage, such as a grain farm, or a rice farm. To be able to promote your soldiers, ie "upgrading" them, you will need to sacrifice alchoholic beverages to the Gods. Q - How does the promoting of the soldiers work?

If this happens, and you build a new residence, it will not give you a full amount of settlers, since the ones that didn't have a home before, moves in to the new house. If they don't have a place to live, they will go on strike.

See to that you don't destroy your residences after the settlers have left them. And the one I've got doesn't do any work. Q - My residences are not giving me any new settlers. Start up the colony as you normally starts on a map, but don't forget the old country, and pretty soon should you have got everything running smoothly.

The settlers will then take the tools and build your houses. When you have taken enough land with your pioneers, transform them back into settlers again, and build the basic buildings (sawmill, woodcutter etc) to get things going. Send also a lot of wood and stone to the island so you can build houses later on. Then send away a bunch of hammers and shovels with the transportship, using the landingdock, to the island. Send of transportships with pioneers to the new island, and take the land. Then build at least one transportship and one tradingship to begin with.
