Low FPS when I assign tasks

Description of the Issue

The game slows down and becomes unplayable when I assign the worker in the mine to mine copper. There’s another worker in the mine who isn’t causing any problems. In my save, if you assign the worker in front of you to mine copper, you’ll see the problem recur (I hope).

I’ve had this problem before, it seems, but it’s just my impression. It occurs when you create an area without assigning anyone to it, exit and re-enter the game, and assign a worker to it. In this case, it’s strange because it works for one worker, but not for the other.

Hey Andrea, thanks for the save.

The issue is related to pathfinding: The workplace is so far away from the worker that they spend all their time thinking about the path to take, never reaching a solution.

I’ll fix this, but a quick workaround for you could be:

  • Create a work plot “in between” the current worker position and the target work plot.
  • Assign the worker there and wait for them to go there.
  • Finally, reassign the worker to the actual target work plot now that they’re close enough.

Hope that helps! It’s on our list to fix!
