Working NPCs(gather resources)

[Khorne Flakes]

While I don't like similar games such as Ark, Minecraft, etc for the multplayer; I enjoy them instead for the singleplayer.
However, I'm not a fan of resource gathering during the mid-late game. I prefer that the process start to become automated, atleast for basic resources.
While Ark vanilla kinda had resource automation, just like Minecraft I ended up getting mods that automated resource gathering.

Last time I tried Conan Exiles, I discovered that you could not make NPCs automate resource gathering(as far as I'm aware); instead they were really only useless for combat.
So I'm curious. Do the devs intend on allowing NPCs to perform even basic resource gathering in the future? If so(or not), are there any mods that currently add or simulate resource gathering by NPCs?

I doubt they add resource gathering thralls but who knows... The higher thralls and benches make costs and time go down btw.

There wont be any gatherer thralls, creating those was too much of a challenge for Funcom, so they scrapped that plan.
Your best option is either to play on a server with boosted harvesting rates or if you play a single player game you can adjust the harvesting amount to your liking.

Funcom claims they can't do it, but modders have done it anyways.

TAG is unnecesarily complicated, Im using base_mat_worker on my server and it works perfectly. Feels more immersive too.
