lye bucket hoarding
« on: September 02, 2006, 12:55:00 am »

after my dudes make potash they seem to be hoarding the lye buckets in their workshops.  the buckets still appear to have lye in them but i need to continually make more buckets for them to make more lye and potash

it seems to me to be rather silly that they grab a bucket, make lye.. then have to haul it away before dragging it all the way back to make potash..

i mean if a workshop has a bucket of freshly make lye.. why not just use that to make potash?

(yes.. yes.. i've only just figured out it needs a food pile + barrel to dump the lye.. but still they tend to dump it in a food pile a mile away)

Yeah, I suppose there should probably be a double-time job to make potash directly from ashes, or something like that.
