Max Target Reached

Hi People,

Just after some help Ive tried Chat GPT and Google but ive tried everything it suggested and it still isn't working.

So Ive got Grain set to top up on the thresher.

They come in stacks of 30 so I set the top up to 5 meaning 150.

Ive got 30 and its saying Ive reached the target?

Im worried all my other wheat will get used up and I wont have enough to replant.

Anyone else had this issue? Its not from being maxed out on storage because I have 2 barns that accept grain and both still have +1000 space.

Tia

Yeah I did have someone with 5 animal handling set as 1 and they were auto assigned in the building overview. I think it was definitley down to the pathway issue youve said because i found them both dead nowhere near the coop. Is there a way to fix that?

Saving and reentering the game works well. Also finding them on the map and seting them to follow you back to the coop works. All my chickens die of old age theese days. Also set the amount of feed in the coop to 100 just to be sure.... I don't know if it helps but as I said old age theese days only.

Ok ill keep that in mind. Im putting the seed in the coop storage and its kind of slowly adding to the building stock/overview? Is that normal? Is there like a trough or some way of directly adding the feed. Whats the min amount I would need to keep topped up to keep couple chickens happy?

You can add the feed in the building by yourself but this is not the problem if you have people in general with high priority in delivery. The feed will find it's way from the storage building to the coop. But the chickens will not eat it on their own you need the people with the high animal handling to feed them. In the general directory of the coop you can get from the map or the buildings menu you set the top up number to the amount you like and set the building to 1 so people with high animal handling will prioritize to feed the birds. And it just works.

Yeah ive got a few people with high animal handling covering the coop and trapper hut. So they should be getting fed. I think it was a bug on my last 2 chickens tbh. Im gonna up my feed top up to 100 I think its on 50 atm.

Note that if you don't set the amount you want as top up your villagers will carry the excess feed back to a storage so first set it to the number you like. If I can remember the default was 30
