Problem with leather-production in copper age

[Dr.Gonzo]

First of all, great game devs! It´s been ages since i actually enjoyed looking at my settlers in a game. Looks like its coded pretty solid too.

For some reason my folks refuse to use the leather-crafting station since we reached copper age, even on high prio.
There is leather put in the inv of the shop by one settler, but no one comes to work it. Eventually the leather rots in the inv slot, and is replaced after. This goes all the time. If i build something else, its done immediatly, so its not like all workers are busy.

Can u help me?

Never had this. I make so much leather I end up using it to buy techs.

Edit: Have you tried setting a limit for dry skins as its default is set to infinite?

[Rockatansky]

Have you disabled leather and fur clothing production?

[pmierow]

Have you set a limit for leather in stock?
When such a limit has been reached no further leather will be produced.

[Dr.Gonzo]

Hmm I got 0 in stock, and never touched the limit window...
But thank you for the quick respond!

I´m a bit stuck now, because a cant replace any sledges or carts anymore.

Your tannin stock looking good? The trees have a limit like fishing and need to replenish, so if you haven’t updated the work order, they might not be replenishing.

you need both a raw hide and tannin to produce leather. check your tanning harvesting zone. you probably cut down the trees there and forgot to assign a new zone

Zed Dor-Cede and Azunai are right, the only reasons why production can stop are :

- Dry skins limit set to infinite, so every raw skin gets dried on a rack instead of turned into leather. A limit between 20-40 should be enough for the whole game.

- Not enough tannin : I usually find a tannin-rich spot or two near my camp and never allow any lumberjack to touch these trees, but sometimes I have to go far to get it. It can only be harvested in spring, so set up several work areas that allow 5 workers at once, and a generous production limit since it will have to be enough to last a whole year.

of course...i should have thought of this myself... i must have overread the message when the spot when dry... i think i have even cut the trees on purpose ^^ thank you mates!
