My woodcutter is not cutting wood. Help.

[JackDrags]

I'm not sure what's going on. I've assigned a villager to woodcutter's hut, I even have another villager assigned to the resource storage. The hut is amongst many many trees and I tried putting a stone and iron ax in the hut's inventory. Does anyone else have any ideas?

They don't need tools and they probably won't move, but you should get resources anyway in the storage building and management overview.

they have tools themselves. i think that you still don't have resource storage? or the storage itself is full. i suggest you to build another 1 to increase capacity.

Open the NPC village screen and make sure it says lumberjack. Then open the woodshed screen and then the production tab to see if it is producing anything. Sometimes the NPC's will just stand around looking like they are not working but really are.

If it is night time they will not produce anything.
make sure they have food and firewood and a place to sleep.
they do not need tools - but it is a good idea to keep tools in the woodshed chest for when they will be required (if you have the time and extra resources to make them)
No need for anyone in the storage building yet as they don't do anything.
If the resource building is over limit the harvested logs will not be added but instead go into the woodshed chests until full then the worker will stop working

yep, don't look at the guy but at the chests.
You can say it's not working if the chests en lodging and storage stay empty

[JackDrags]

I'm looking at the storage and it's got plenty of room. In the past even without room in the resource storage, the woodshed would fill up with wood until capacity. And yes the guy is moving around hitting trees but I know that has nothing to do with the actual production.

The status' for the wood shed say that they're all working but it's clearly not. I've tried demolishing and rebuilding the woodshed but that hasn't effected it. I've also replaced the villager working there and still nothing. I'm at a loss. :^(

[JackDrags]

Welp! Time to demolish the resource building and built it again! This is my last option I think.

Check your management screen on the buildings tab to make sure that the building isn't damaged. You can also check this by equipping a hammer and selecting the repair function to see red damaged areas.

God I wish it was damaged, would make this easier. Nah it's not but that was a great idea. Thanks.

When you say the status is showing as working, but it's clearly not. Expand on that a little more. I take it that no logs, sticks or firewood are being delivered to the storage building correct?

What level extractor is your worker? the progress bar should show how much is being produced per hour, could it be your just not waiting long enough?

[JackDrags]

Well initially I had waited probably a full year with no resources gathered at all. So I started messing with it, ie, replacing woodshed and now currently replacing the resource shed. Specifically no resources are being gathered. Not sticks no logs no firewood, however on the information tab for the woodshed it says they are working.

[JackDrags]

Logs: 0.8/hr Sticks: 2.0/hr Firewood: 0.4/hr

one lumberjack doenst get much, having 2 is a game changer you get it alot faster, i have 3 and 16 villagers and i have a surplus and is keeping up with the doubled winter demand. i wasnt getting hardly any with just one lumberjack.
