Virtual Villagers: The Secret City - Building the big green blue statue

Chief's Duties:
The Chief once created can:

Procreate - all the males but the chief died and he was able to create offspring.

Gather Herbs - he can gather herbs for alchemy potions.

Heal All - Males and females who are sick can be healed by the chief if ill without procreating.

Clam key:
You will need to have solved Puzzle 9 the big statue. Once the statue is completed, a pearl will appear not the key. Have a Master Builder pick up the pearl. He or she will take it to the waterfall to be "finished". Then, have the tribal chief pick up the finished blue pearl. The chief will use the pearl to get the key from the giant clam.

Double tech points and food:
When collecting items turtle shells, corals, tablets, and feathers, if you already have collected that item you will earn tech points. Mushrooms are food red is more food than brown. You can double your profits by placing two children on the same item. If done fast enough you will end up with two of the same item. This is useful when you are running low on food.

Faster events:
The time in the game runs is based on your computer's clock. It is possible to shorten things by setting the clock ahead and then going back. Be careful though, sometimes people will die over this time.

Finding respawned objects:
When your adults are collecting objects keys, firewood, etc., they may drop them if interrupted by a celebration or if you click on them. The item will then respawn to where it was originally found.

Gathering herbs:
While gathering herbs for alchemy, children of almost any age can gather herbs for the potions. However, they cannot make the potions.

Gem key:
Keep lighting the fire. You will notice sparkles around the fire. Let it burn out and the key should appear. However, it is too hot to pick up. Go to the waterfalls where the villagers get a drink and drop them there. The key must be there in order to do this. The villagers action will be "Putting water on the firepit". Keep doing until it has cooled.

Herbs:
Your villagers will "see" the following herbs when you fly them over.

The Cactus is located just above the Science area.
The Black Orchid is on the edge of the grassy area below the orchard.
The Rose is located on the right edge of the orchard, below the hanging object.
The Lotus is to the left of the stairs near the bath.
The Tiger Lily is partway up the path to the door orange flower on right.
The Berry Magic or Pitcher Plant Nature is located to the left of the alchemy lab, where the kids go when nature calls. These plants only appear when you have purchased level 2 in your faction.

Lift:
The lift is useful for placing an adult and allowing you to find them in the same place a few seconds later. You can use this to get the couples you want to have babies. Other places where villagers linger are the waterfalls and bath when completed.

Pink diamond key:
You will need to have solved Puzzle 3. Collect the following herbs for a potion: Cactus, Rose, Lotus. Make the potion and have a villager other than a nursing mother drink it.
