Please explain the Guild Hall to me?

[Psymon]

Hi all,

So I am trying to understand the guild hall and when I need to recruit a worker. In my example the hall shows 'workers ordered by buildings' as a farmer, but do I actually need to do anything except make sure that there is enough stock available? The image for the worker does not match the 4 options to recruit from?

Workers are recruited there automatically when needed as long is it has the required tools. The tools are made at a tool smith and you will have to order those manually.

As soon as you construct a new building for which no free workers are available, these workers are requested from the guild (if available). However, the guild can only provide these workers if there are enough tools available for them. The entire process is completed automatically when all conditions are met.

Example: You are building a new lumberjack's hut. All lumberjacks are already assigned to other lumberjack huts. This means that 3 new lumberjacks are requested in the guild. If there are still 3 axes in stock, the new lumberjacks are equipped with them and sent to the new lumberjack hut. If only 2 axes are available, the order remains in place until the toolmaker delivers another axe.

Please note: This only works as long as you have free inhabitants available. In the worst case, you will have no more carriers because they have been assigned to other activities. You should make babies early.
