Refugee Lords won't eat [Bug?]

[Swimming Rock]

During the Refugees scenario, the first group of Lords showed up and I was told to house and feed them. The counter said there were 103 lords to feed. I had over a 1000 rations, yet 3 of the lords just never went to eat and I failed the quest. Anybody else had this experience?

[Benak]

yes me like 3 times in this mission..

[Leah Ackermann]

were they also sick and couldn't be treated at the same time ?

[theworld]

Yes, I failed this "quest" too. Seems like a bug.

I recall the game mentioned some of them were sick, so that could be relevant, yeah :(

Happened to me too. The three people were hunting ...

I noticed that when people get sick, they don't go to the hospitals because they want to eat and my cookhouse is halfway on the other side of the map. So they will not go to a hospital until they finish their trip to the cookhouse.

There is some 'eating' mechanic I don't understand. Maybe the Cookhouse only holds so many people? Maybe it's the location?

For some reason people just don't eat. Everybody eats except 1 or 2... I have lost the 'Promise' to feed people in both Ark and in Refugees meanwhile the food stocks are sitting there crammed to capacity.

As far as I understand it following things are true:
1. People go to eat when it is their free time. (Though this is possibly wrong.)
2. Cookhouse should be at least chilly
3. They physically go to the cookhouse
4. Hunters can't eat while hunting
5. People can't eat if there are no cookhouse.

People can't eat if they are been treated in the hospital.
Find those people that are hungry and if they are in hospitals, close the hospital they are in.

High chances that before going to different med-post they'll go to cookhouse and take their meal

Yes, I find this annoying too, which is why I prefer using the other method of building hunter's hangars.

I think you are right. I would suggest an update for the devs: logically there would be runners that bring food to the med units. Its illogical they would let them starve as part of treatment.

Surprised you failed mission at food goal stage just on RNG. I failed treating sick lords by 6-7 too and this only raised discontent, easily and quickly corrected using Purpose options.

That one's bugged, too. I built my first and the quest showed 1/3, but when I built the other two, it showed 0/3. Tried building them over the top of the huts, and building them new entirely. No change.

Same here. I have played this mission several times and have not successfully completed that mission using either of those choices. In fact, since the update I haven't been able to beat this scenario on hard. The constant temp drops are just too fast to manage.
