[Con] Bug Report. Workers prioritize new orders

Support Previous Build Reports
1

Summary:
When giving a new order. A worker who is already asigned a order is changing to the new one. Instead of finishing the current order. And a other worker goes finishing that order.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Give orders (cutting trees, harvesting berries etc)
  2. Give more new orders

Expected Results:
unassigned workers go do the new orders.

Actual Results:
Closest worker (I think it chooses closest) cancelled current order and will take the new order

Notes:

They will spoil food because of this. Which is bad for hygiene.

So, could this be the reason behind this?
Interesting…
Edit: That explains why one worker went to pick berries, but then stood there and another went to pick the basket and bring it to the stockpile. I thought they were tired or something xD and didn’t want to do several chained tasks. But making a worker who is far away, go to pick the basket when the worker who picked the berries is the nearest… There’s something wrong :confused:
Must be something related to the new AI.

ya, probably. I did not pay attention if they were getting new food or some other duty.
