Summary0007017: Always have Apothekinist and Lumbermancer in settlement
DescriptionI would suggest always having one Apothekinist and one Lumbermancer among the three settlers. Missing one or the other makes for a potentially very long, and very boring, start, since you can't build the storage tower without a lumbermancer (which is required for, I believe, every single other guardian power out there), and without an Apothekinist, you have to find a hidden mission to get more settlers (and those hidden missions are very few and far between). The case can be made for an Aquaurgist as well (placing wind shelters), but ultimately, if you've got a Lumbermancer and Apothekinist, you can get every other profession through Seek Survivor.

I thought it was already supposed to do this. It doesn't?

In my second settlement, I had a Forgician, Stonebinder and a Apothekinist.

From what I understand, it's like this on the FIRST continent always. I don't believe that's true for any continent past that, where it is simply random. I'm not 100% certain on that though.

Yeah, it is supposed to be for the first continent, that's what I thought Toll was referring to.

In that case, I'm not sure we want to actually give you the professions. Perhaps maybe we should find a way to make them easier to get, instead.

There's both secret missions and the one-shot extra rescue-missions underground, which really should provide enough opportunities to rescue someone. If not, the frequency of the latter needs to be increased.
