Q&A: Got specific questions? This section tackles common queries.

• How do I obtain cotton? You can set up scavenging tents for your settlers to collect it. Alternatively, once your boat is upgraded, you can buy cotton seeds from the trader on Moon Island and farm them, though you'll need to keep buying seeds as there's no sustainable seed source otherwise.
• How do I insert materials/obtain output from farms, cookhouses etc. without opening the GUI? Use Shift+right-click to place materials into a building, and Ctrl+right-click to extract outputs (like milk from barns).
• How do I get milk? Purchase cows from the farmer on Cow Island. Place Barns for them, and these buildings will handle the input and output of milk.
• What is the desert island with the person stuck in the smelter? That island is still under development and can be ignored for now.
