Farming

[dwobwinkle]

Basically, I run into problems when my gnomes randomly refuse to farm. I have cotton set to priority 1, but they still ignore it. They'll even haul (their last priority job) before going to my cotton field. I have over 100 seeds so that is not the problem. My forces slowly whittle away because I can't produce bandages. Is there something I don't understand or is this a terrible bug?

My farmers only have one job: plant and harvest. They don't haul or construct, or do horticulture. After the farms are organized, they also handle cloth. Maybe try having them only do farming?

I was able to fix it by suspending my wheat field (don't know why that made them stop hauling but it did). Still, if cotton is 1st priority and wheat is 2nd, it should go to cotton first. I made a huge wheat area because food is important, but having to suspend it off and on so people actually go to cotton is dumb.

[Has that ever happened to you?]

sometimes the AI gets messed up and you need tu turn it off then turn it back on to work same thing happened to me and my groves this becomes easier as you get more people so you have one or two deicated farmers
