Summary: Five of my footmen stopped fighting, leaving the sixth alone, just so they could get some food.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Fight some guys
  2. Footmen hunger gets low
  3. Footmen leave in middle of fight just to eat

Expected Results: Fight anyway regardless of hunger

Actual Results: I get wiped out because of my footmen’s stomachs

Notes: Could you please add a feature to force hearthlings to do what you want without taking breaks or sleeping?
