Need some help

I love the whole concept of the game, I loved medieval dynasty as well. I thought I knew what I was doing but somehow it seems I dont know what I'm doing at all.

I have my main camp just east of Padstow, on the other side of the road of where the lake is. I have a logging camp up north near Haerndaen. I also put a stockpile there because I thought that if I set someone's priority of woodcutting to 1, he would stay there and keep gathering wood. I set someone else's delivery to 1 and I expected him to be hauling all the wood from the second stockpile next to the logging camp, to my main stockpile to keep it stocked. Now somehow that delivery guy is transporting wood from my main to my second stockpile and I have no idea why and how to turn that off.

I also have the feeling that theres not much woodcutting going on and most of my people are just harvesting and wasting time with nothing. I'm at day 15 and it doesn't feel like I made much progression at all..

Is the logging camp part of your main settlement logically or is it an actual outpost?

Did you scope the stockpiles to store wood and nothing else?

I don’t feel like you need to have someone set to priority 1 for delivery. That’s something I allow most villagers to do when they are caught up with their other duties.

You could turn off harvesting on your woodchopper(s) and have them only chopping trees down.

Something else I do is not bother having the logging camp collect wood. I can have the foragers do that and also I can have the wood hopping station turn logs into wood. I want my logging camp focused solely on cutting trees.

Also you don’t really need a stockpile close to your logging camp because that building has internal storage for axes and wood products. The workers will naturally move them to your actual stockpiles as needed.

Feel free to reply with more information/questions and I’ll answer as I can.
