Soldiers running around like idiots "seeking weapons"

[Dadleif81]

I can't get the storage function in barracks to work properly, this means everytime I recruit soldiers the will run around like headless chickens in their seek for weapons and ammo. They use way too long time doing it aswell, so the upkeep of paying them for months trying to find weapons is ridiculous. i solve it by having storage nearby and set a minimum limit there of weapons etc., but when I recruit I have to remember to remove the limit or they will not be able to get the weapons...
Also why is the soldiers so slow compared to raiders? And the upkeep is too high compared to prize for recruiting them and getting them well equipped.

One issue I've seen in my game is that weapons and armor won't get moved from forges no matter how I set the quotas. They'll stay at the forge until they hit a max and then they may start moving. One thing I've done is move them all into the trade house and then move them back out. Then they tend to go where I want them, though I keep all my weapons and armor in the vault with the gold so raiders won't accidentally get away with some.

I usually build a vault next to my first Barrack building. Then I disallow the 3 armors/weapons from storehouses so they all go to the vault. But yes, there will be a period where the weapons are at the forge until they're moved to storage.

Also, "seeking weapons" can also mean seeking armor. So if you get a shield/hauberk/platemail upgrade, a soldier will run off and pick that up and it will say "seeking weapon"
