Workers Won't Make Stone Blocks

[RemusStefon]

I've assigned a family of 7 to make stone blocks (temporarily, i only need 8 right now) and they have everything they need but refuse to work. They've got stone, wooden block, and production orders. Am I missing something?

Do they produce stone Tiles? Do they own enough chop blocks on their masonary?

Well, did you tell them via the production screen in their claim's menu? You need to give them a higher priority in producing block rather than tile or remove entirely tiles from production for the time being.

These menus would be so much better inside a megamenu/spreadsheet with all the workshops in the village where you can make those modifications instead of opening several windows devs.

They are not using anything within the zone at all, but they have everything the zone lists that they need

Production for everything in the zone is 0 except for stone blocks, which is at 1. The family itself has plenty of stone, and there's stone on the market (and yes, they have a storefront to buy/sell)

I'm just hella confused tbh, thanks for the help tho!

It's also not a problem with the save file. I've tried several files with several families. I've even granted the families a few hundred stones hoping that would speed them along, but nothing

Just to double check, the family's profession is masoning?

The family uses stone blocks to make stone tiles. I put 0 on producing stone tiles and 10 priority in producing stone blocks. When i i ran out of stone tiles i just put 1 as a priority. They do fine.

Don't think so, is that the issue? I haven't had any masons try to join my town

[Midas]

But they also own the masonary?

The numbers are not priority, they are Relation.

So a 1 Stoneblock 4 Tiles just means that they produce 1 block, than 4 tiles, than rinse and repeat.
if its 2 5 they produce 2 stone blocks, and 5 stone tiles, than rins and repeat

Yeah, yilleins can only work jobs that they are proficient in.

Gotcha thank you all for helping me through this bout of stupidity

Haha!

I( hope they rename the masons to Stonecutters, because they do more stonecutting than anything else.

Masons were basically architects in the middle ages. They built churches, mosques, castles, etc. If our village had a real mason, it would go bankrupt after a month or two. hehe!
