Workers are still going idle (ALPHA 9)

I believe its the same problem as this

Workers are still going idle (ALPHA 9)

Hi there. I’m new here, so I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I have been playing stonehearth practically non-stop for the last few days and I LOVE it… With one exception. I can’t seem to get past day 8-15 without all of my workers going idle. I have tried having only one task lined up, and that seemed to work for a while (until about day 10), and cancelling all tasks, etc. There appears to be a lot of people experiencing this issue, based on what I’ve found on the web, and it’s a huge i…

You’re lucky you survived that long. My workers went idle on day 2. Half of them just stood there while the other half worked. For example, I sent 3 of them to go mining, but only 1 of them are, while the other 2 are just idle. Not to mention, I highlighted a whole area to mine, but they stopped mining, after finishing one block.

[Maevyn]

I’ve had mine do that as well, and ‘forced’ them to finish by re-mining the area a chunk at a time. It wasn’t pretty, but it did eventually get the job done.

I hope they give this “error”/design issue high priority in alpha 10, I consider it a game breaker if you can’t just expand.
My town is right next to mountains but workers are also idle.
Game is great so far! Keep up the good work!

Sucks about not being able to manually adjust priorities

I really wish we could adjust our Earthlings’ priorities, much like the Gambit system in FFXII.

the weaver will not craft anything. Nothing.

Make sure your Weaver maintains at least 3 Thread at all times. I had this problem too, and had to track the ingredient tree all the way back till I found the first thing I hadn’t made yet; Thread.
