You just donate goods. It takes away from your inventory, but you're more likely to be bottlenecked by supplies anyways.
Just wanted to share that I have returned to my Tiny Town project after 3 years away from the game. My Tiny Town is now in the Progressive Era, though little has changed overall. Also if anyone has info on how to reobtain a deleted forum account I would love to recover my old one.
Unfortunately I don't think you can, but it's great to have you back!
I wouldn't mind knowing how to retrieve my old forum account as well, so if anyone responds w/pertinent info to this, please tag me as well. Thx!
I don't have the traditional tiny town but I do have 2 new EMA cites with now fully leveled chocolatries using only a few medal expansions, so I feel like I can relate -- somewhat! I'm not sure how you arrive at a factory replacing 2 sleighs as the sleighs provide 15 goods p/6 tiles (30 goods-12 tiles) and the factory only provides 10 goods p/24 tiles. So, SB 2.5 goods/tile v 0.41 goods/tile
I was thinking removing the triumphant arch and 2 sleigh builders And replacing with teds chocolatery. But my math was in error. Replacing 18 squares with 24 squares doesn’t seem like a good swap. I would get better happiness and 32 goods with attack but I would likely lose some supplies production. Right now, I agree, not a good swap. Thanks.
If the extra use of supplies and coins doesn't hurt your budget, you might want to consider this when working in reconstruction mode, delete your cultural stuff - at least your decorations. Just delete anything you can live without addressing happiness and then lay your city out with the spaces open for the items like event items that you are considering. It does help clear the view a bit to be able to plan, esp if you have pretty much every tile in use! I don't use this every time I want to rearrange but it does help clear out the 'messy stuff' when I'm planning a major over-haul.
Managed to get Ted’s and keep my sleigh builders. Attack/Defense now at 46/35. Goods production at 77 per day. Supplies prod at 12000+ per day. Coin production is the weak link at the moment.If the extra use of supplies and coins doesn't hurt your budget, you might want to consider this when working in reconstruction mode, delete your cultural stuff - at least your decorations.

You might also want to consider your choice of roads. If you are doing a lot of changes and don't need the enthusiasm boost from premium road in your era, just use trails. They're free and you can easily delete them all before a recon to get your road efficiency up to 'top-notch.' Don't discount that Teds! It's a real goldmine and if you can address your goods issue, I think you'll be pleased.
Nice layout! Curious-you seem to be trying to address both fights & negos in your layout. If you haven't unlocked Military Tactics yet, have you considered deleting your racks and just do negos? (You could replace your racks only when needed to meet a Daily Challenge or Quest requirement). A recent conversation in guild regarding Diamond farms clued me into something I hadn't considered before -- the concious choice to not open that tech and nego all 64 encounters of GE, in that case with the objective being to obtain diamonds but I can see it's application in the confines of not using additional expansions (tiny towns) immediately: eliminate/drastically reduce your city's need for happiness -- military buildings always reduce enthusiasm (but so do wells). The FoYs you can obtain will address a lot of city resource needs since they produce the exact same thing as wells and more importantly what is detracting about them for a diamond farmer in the inability to store them saves a tiny towner -- because they can be destroyed -- you can satisfy any number of needs in an ever-changing city-scape. A few examples would be to increase all resources (in your recent case) coins -- coins and supplies are the 2 most common things they produce. Excepting production requirements, they might also address your city's supply needs better than a GB that is large and also something a player is less likely to eliminate so quickly. Plus, completing all 64 of GE at a moderate cost of opening levels 2-4 will also net you many resources your city is not providing now in the chest alone. For me, I'd take some of that out and consider a ToR to have the relics address virtually all of the city's needs during the expedition but I'm not sure that 36 tiles is the right answer if you really want to stay true to "no expansions." lol I'd still consider the resources from GE, if you haven't already.
I did get through 64 encounters in the last GE. I fought through level 1 then negotiated through the remaining levels. Level 4 got expensive. I’ve considered the ToR, which would radically increase the GE rewards. 36 tiles is a lot of real estate at the moment. Obviously, I have unlocked tactics. My main goal was to perhaps harvest goods and supplies from my hood. Time will tell if that was a sound decision. I may be able to completely remove racks after a few more GE levels (24 troops a week will help a bunch). I have considered the FoY and WW. Both seem like reasonable options to help with coins. I may change my thinking after I get a few in inventory. Right now, my goal is to do enough fights and nego’s to complete GE as well as grow my castle. The boosts from it are a big help also. Thanks for your insights. A city like this is experimental in nature. It will likely change as needs evolve and the next shiny thing pops up.Nice layout!

Of course! I just find these kinds of cities or other "restrictions" we place upon ourselves as an endlessly fascinating challenge to either try or to help others figure out the 'puzzle!' It sounds like an interesting journey and I wish you the best of luck!! (I can add that on my 'fighting-farm,' the first one I tried, I have had great success w/the fight/nego combo but it seems to have taken longer. My two newest ventures I've opened the tech but eschew fights in favor of negos and after only 68 and 83 days, I am already able to see the differences in my ability to do more/nego more in my 83-day city and I can forsee not needing to fight at all without undue burden of finding goods -- without benefit of any plunders from hood). Just what's working for me but I would like to explore (at a very future date!lol) doing a city without doing that tech and see where it takes me).
