Colony Storage

[grumble314]

I constantly have 2-3 colonists stacked on top of each other in front of colony storage, waiting to get food I assume but there is all kinds of food in storage and they just stand there.

[^^o^^ BatCat]

They proll'y have thier food and are waiting to back to work.

(Talk to them, pause, "Thats all".. may speed it up)

[grumble314]

Yes if I talk to them they wander off some times they come right back though.

[grumble314]

No I checked 90% of the colonists are at hunger 0 so most of them aren't getting any food.

I wish they ate puja bread and salads on their own :P

[computerchy]

they might eat some specific type of food , not any one , and have you built processor and raplicator , they will make food on their own

[grumble314]

Well when I'm not in the colony them seem to eat at least.

[grumble314]

Yes I have both and have some of every recipe in storage.

[grumble314]

They don't appear to eat or sleep when I'm in the colony wierd.

In MP mode they want Nuts.

Get farm going, just about every plant will give "nuts". Use Proccessor to to get them to start, maybe.

[grumble314]

Oh they seem to eat fine when I'm not in the area they sleep as well but if I'm in the colony they seem to do neither. this was story mode start a .71.

I haven't tested it but perhaps placing another storage near an area where a lot of workers gather would alleviate the queuing. The closer to their work area is better since they have to walk less distance.

[grumble314]

I have two already both with food they only go to the one unless I pick it up then they all go to the other till it gets picked up I just leave the area for awhile and let everyone eat and don't sleep in the colony.

Them Not Eating/Sleeping while you are there is a bug. They use to just fine. :/

Hi , i am experiencing the same issue in version 0.8 . I didnt really notice at first , as I was to busy building the colony ! but once i had 2 stores up and running , processor/replicator/farm the whole shabang . The only reason I noticed at all was no one was going to the processer when I had built a que ,and I went for a wonder to find out why, now i will have at least 8 people all merged in front of a store .

I built colony in story mode , and the processor worker is processing the material that they need normally and then the factory worker is always raplicate food and medicine however the items they replicate and process are few and limited on specific item the professor send the material to the storage , the factory worker consume them for food making , the procedure they doing it's not fast but they are doing it
