My Civs just pick stone up and put it down in the same place

[zipzip105]

I am having problems with my people doing anything, like it takes them ages to get the stone to build paths because they just go into the mine pick it up and just drop it again. this happens with everything but the stone is the main issue. about 1 in 10 people who pick it up actually do something with it. You have no idea how frustrating it is to watch.

For the love of god can someone help.

Everyone jumps on one free stone to take it to the mason's bench to turn it into road. Once all benches are taken, the ones that didn't manage to queue for them simply put it down and go to the next task.

However, if you're making the cheaper road, where it doesn't need a mason's bench for stone to be turned into road, then it's a bug.

Ta guy above me is right. Try having 10 mason benches.

Lol i noticed this too. I didnt knew what it was :O ty guys

I think this issue should still be considered a bug.

They should bring the stone to the mason bench before realizing it's being used and then drop it there for the sanity of the player.

If the A.I. was working better there wouldn't be any reason to have multiple construction objects until distance becomes a concern.

This is a well known discuss theme.
Imagine that you want to chop a large tree area. What if the citizens just chop 1 tree and go back to the town to store the wood obtained. It's not efficient.

Would it be possible for them to check in an area around them for stockpiles/containers, haul them if there exists, not if they don't?

Well, even in that case the production will not be efficient. We have that noted to take a look, but now is pretty interesting to make good towns designs to avoid that. Is like a challenge
