Builder's Hut is Weird

[House Gnome]

Seriously. It takes ages to get but it's an 'in-need' building as in it's not a preventative type building but something you let sit empty until stuff needs repair then you assign a worker until the repairs are made, then send them back to where they typically work.

It's also a crappy stick and straw building but the taxes on it are the same as a level 2 production building.

I have built it once... once. But unless you have satellite buildings all over the map, it actually seems pretty useless for a 7500 point building. Honestly seems like it should have been a filler building during that interminable slog to the mine.

Imo, it's a great QoL-Feature, but on the other hand you're right.
You only need it for the first few hours of a new season. About lunchtime, the repairs are done.
Many players have already asked for the ability to actually build other buildings or at least walls and fences.
Another great use of it, imo, could be connecting it to the Resource Storages.
So it won't add (much) capacity to the storage-system, but could be used
as a smaller option to access the shared inventory. As long as a villager is assigned.

Do you guys need to put the hammer in the chest in the hut or does your player get one from the resource storage? If I don't place hammers in the chest it says that the worker doesn't have any tools to carry out repairs.

That's strange.
If there's a Hammer in the Builders Huts chest, it should be used first,
but if there is none, it should be taken from the Resource Storage.

My builder took one from resource storage.

I thought it must be a bug as every other worker gets the tools from the resource storage. Thanks for replying guys. :D
