This has happened in all of my playthroughs and is not a one time occurence, blacksmiths, armoury, and sometimes foundries will only have 2 workers active while the rest are ‘unable to work’ even though all resources required are right next to them in stockyard, and 2 of the workers are clearly still working.
It seems to be related to the ratios, as switching all ratios on to 10 will have them all working again but defeats the purpose of even being able to put certain items at 0
A reminder, again, that the bug reporting forum is to provide info on an issue or how to reproduce an issue. We are not looking for discussions or workarounds. When you’re bumping bug reports, you’re drawing our attention to a thread again, except we don’t need to know what the workarounds are; believe me, we know them.
You are welcome to discuss gameplay tips and workarounds in other forum sections.
This report is over a month old and the underlying issue (not a bug) is actually resolved in the upcoming v0.8.3.
