Half my population died. But, since I essentially controlled the entire map by then, I simply set my workforce to half for all trades, so that there were still more than enough dedicated workers, with many free-floaters to help. The suddenly empty houses caused another baby boom. Death boom. Baby boom. Etc.
I made sure to build new cemeteries to keep up morale and just lived with it. ^^
It does cause the side effect of overaging and rising death from that point you start building again. This way you can gauge and tweak the population numbers to a level desired to overcome a food or heating crisis.
Another way to rise your workforce is to close the school themporarely all students will become labor’s right away. You can reopen it right after to have space for growing kids.
Crisis management is where this Game is at its best.
I had a 50 population (Vanilla) and was facing a starvation crisis, could manage my way out and grew back to 220 with 35.000 foods and 7.000 firewood in storage. Rough management for 5-7 years, but it worked.
I found out the same strategy, and I use it quite often to "force" my pops to breed.
I usually don't kick out ALL the inhabitants tho. If there's a young couple in a house, there's no need to kick them out, they'll have kids on their own some time soon. Same goes for an old couples and families with kids below breeding age. They need to live somewhere, and better have two (or more) of them in one house than both in individual houses. I'd usually just kick out the "old singles" (old couples where one of them already died) or "mixed houses" / families where at least one inhabitant is able to breed.
Started a new game with 10+2, and some short time after the first winter I was up to 30 population. (which was way short of the labour force I could have used by then, but hey) ... I need to get the mod that slows down ageing, though. That would put a damper on this trick.
Du hast grade meine erste Stadt vor dem sicheren aussterben bewahrt :D
anwenden lässt es sich jedoch bei jeder beliebig großen oder kleinen stadt. ;)
