Building Repairs are broken

Building repairs do not happen (even with good plan stores), leading to a large volume of derelict buildings.

Do you have enough materials, labourers and builders and are they busy doing other tasks? Make sure they don’t have other work to do and they should get around to repairing things.

Yeah, I have all the materials to meet the repair requirements, and >30 labours?

Some buildings are at 40% but require 1 plank, and have been for years, so something is not right.

It’s not just repairing what is broken with sizable (300+) cities. Only prioritized buildings are built. And because we cannot control repairing, it never happens. I just got a message I have 15 buildings condemned. Stopped playing until it’s fixed.

It’s a major problem. The game is unplayable with unmanaged repairing.

You need builders as well as labourers. Make sure you have enough builders too.

I released half of the village from their jobs to make repairing happens. They are just rambling around doing nothing. We need a ‘repair this’ button.

In the profession window top right there is the builders button - increase the number showing there.

Thanks Medea - This appers to have made a difference - 20 labourers and 15/20 builders (increase from 1). I think that’s the root cause. Cheers.

Alright. The word Builders got my attention. I found one in the Professions tab and converted 20 people (from 4) to builders, and they started fixing things. Thanks for the advice, yet this is very contra intuitive. I’d expect a builders guild structure or something similar… not just tweaking of settings. Repairing needs revising. Consider it feedback.
