How does population work in S3?
I used to play this game as a kid 20 or so years ago, and now I found it again and fell in love. Watching those little guys walking around, carrying and crafting stuff and going to war is just awesome.
Unfortunately there is one thing I don't understand about this game:
How does population work in Settlers 3?
I know that you build residences and they spawn an amount of settlers. Does anyone know how many each of them spawns? I couldn't find that information anywhere.
What happens when I demolish a residence? Do the settlers that came from it die? If not, can I just build a new one in the same place to get more settlers? What about settlers with assigned to tasks? Will my woodcutters die if I loose/demolish a residence?
I will greatly appreciate any and all information about this topic.
