Some of these clans remind me of my dog :)
One thing about my dog is that he will announce wishes that are absolutely, physically impossible. Like to make the thunderstorm cease. Now.

This comes to mind when my surveyor who is encamped 30 tiles away (or my fisherman immobilized out in the ice) announce that they want to be in the settlement, and they are upset that I cannot make it happen instantly.

Not to say that this is unrealistic -- I have known people like that. But my eyes do roll.

Sorry, it was simply meant to be a humorous comment on dealing with the difficult personalities in the game. And certainly not a criticism of the game.

My surveyor clan was out there in the arctic conditions, they quite reasonably did not like the cold, so they announced their wish to be out of the cold. Like, right this moment. As though I could invent the helicopter, manufacture one, train a pilot, and send it out to get them. By noon, perhaps? As opposed to "Hey, this is the last winter we're willing to spend out here, boss."

I think it is the announced desire and the getting upset all in the same turn that gives me that impression.

But I have known people like this all my adult life, and always find it darkly humorous. Sorry I annoyed you, not my intention.
