The information in the original FAQ has become a little lost as the thread got larger. I've decided to redo it and improve the layout.

In the first post I am going to put a list of all the questions with a link to the answer. This will make it easy for people to scan and see if there question has already been asked and answered. In order to do this I will also only be putting 1 question and answer per post.

I will close the thread and have a link to another thread (http://forums.teamlava.com/showthread.php?49020-Castle-Story-FAQs-Ask-a-question-or-comment) where people can post questions that haven't already been answered. I'll then add the question and answer into this thread. (This is to keep the thread clean and easy to navigate).

The Potion Shop is Locked by Goal. How do I get It?

You need to expand to Ivy (the tree that looks like a lady). When you have expanded to her she will unlock the Potion Shop.

I just went up a level and it says I can get x building. When I try to buy it, it tells me I need to level up. Help

There is a limit to the number of each type of building you can have per level. If you really want the new building you can sell one of the existing types.

The types are Royal, Town, Resource, Crafting and Special. To see the different types of building go into the Market, click on Buildings then select the appropriate tab. This will show you all the buildings of that type.

Resource buildings are limited to 2 of each type. Special resource buildings like reindeer stables, kingdom inns etc may be limited to buying one if you did not build one duri g the limited time events.

Crafting buildings are also limited to 2 of each type with the exception of love shacks (no longer available) and tinker camps which are limited to 1.

Why are all my neighbours maxed on gifts and why don't I get many gifts?

The game is designed so that you can only send three gifts per day. If you try to send more than this the game will say that your neighbours are maxed.

You will also see a message that your neighbours are maxed if they are maxed on the item (for some items like earth wisps this message appears when they have 80 or more in their inventory). Try sending them a different gift or go to their wall and ask them to use some of the items so you can gift them.

With only three gifts/day they're pretty precious. Some people gift back in order, some people have agreements to only gift particular people in order. If you don't get too many gifts don't worry - most people are in the same boat. Treat any gift as a bonus.

What happens if I decline a gift?

If you decline a gift it doesn't go into your inventory, no message is sent to the sender, the sender cannot send another gift. You would only want to decline a gift if you regularly got 20 gifts a day (the max) and one of the items was something you didn't want. If you declined it and then someone send you another gift you would receive that gift.

I already have the materials for the "Of Telescopes and Tablets" quest. Why aren't they recognised?

The quest asks you to find the items so it doesn't count the ones you have previously found.

I have a quest to harvest x crops. I've got them why aren't they recognised?

Quests like these are based on the number of times you harvest after receiving the quest. It doesn't count harvests you did before the quest. It also doesn't take into account if a harvest gives you two of the items (random bonus). Y

Why aren't my neighbours responding to my requests?

Each day you can only have 20 of your requests answered. By sending lots of requests you're clogging up the system and slowing down your requests.

Example - I send out 60 requests to neighbours on one day. 20 go out to different neighbours - some playing and some not playing. I get back maybe 13 requests. The next day the next 20 go out. I get back 6 from those giving me a total of 19. One the third day the last lot of 20 goes out and I get 7 back. So it's taken me 3 days to get 26 responses.

You'll find you get a faster response rate if you only send out 20-25 people who you know will respond daily.

maguar

03-30-13, 11:05 PM

I respond to requests from my neighbours daily. Why do I suddenly have a request that is 4 days old?

Your neighbours have sent out more than 20 requests. Only 20 can get answered in a day. If you've got one that's 4 days old they've sent the request to at least 80 neighbours. See the post above for more info.

Why is my energy cap different to my neigbours?

The first thing that impacts your energy cap is the level you are on. Each level increases your energy by 1 until you hit the maximum. The current cap is 40. From time to time TL will try different caps with different groups of players.

How do I get more Wood and Stone?

You've got a couple of different options. In my opinion your best bet is to have mines and sawmills. They give multiple wood/stone with the chance of other items.

Wood - you can buy trees but these take time and energy to grow. If you don't need the sap from the tree buy old logs, dead trees and plant in a log for wood. My pick is the old log and dead trees.

Stone - if you also need iron ore buy the iron rich rocks. If iron ore isn't as important you can buy small rock piles or rock outcroppings.

To buy any of these items go to the Market, then Nature, scroll through till you find the item.

Walls have limits? Really?

The number of Walls you can have is limited by your level. I believe this is because they are the most cost effective source of Royal Points. For a lot of levels you will only be able to add 1 Wall/level. Once you hit level 23 the amount you can add increases each level.

Hey folks, sorry for the late response!

You've been asking for this for a while, and it's finally here. Wall limits for players above LV 15 have been completely removed! Enjoy :)

The current wall limit for users over Level 15 is 999 - this count includes all items placed in your Kingdom from the Walls section of the Decoration market, including Gates and Hedges.

To request gifts write on your own wall or your neighbours wall asking them to send you a particular gift(s). As people can only send 3 a day you'll find most are slowly returning gifts to people who have sent gifts to them.

To request materials for a quest go into the quest and press the "Ask" button en select who you will send the request to. As you can only get 20 requests per day, send the request to about 25 neighbours you know are playing daily and will accept. This will stop you from clogging your system.

When you receive a new gift it will appear in your newsfeed. Press accept to put the gift into your inventory. When a new game day starts you'll see the last 20 gifts you received.

When you send your three gifts the list will disappear.

2. Visits
The newsfeed also records the last 10 people who visited your kingdom and helped at least one building. I would suggest that you do not rely on people checking this to return visits to you. If you cannot help a building your visit isn't recorded. If 10 more people help after you and the person checks their feed then your visit will have been bumped off the list.

The royal exchange lets you trade groups of certain items for energy/money/miscellaneous goods and trade tickets. Go into the exchange, look at the requirements, reward and crafting time. If you've got all the items press the button to start crafting.

Important note: if you're collecting energy make sure your current energy level is low enough that when you collect you won't hit your max. If you would hit your max or go over it be aware that it will not go past your max.
