I sent cotters to a square with equipment on the ground and when they got there, they say they're collecting skins? Is this a bug or will they actually grab the equipment despite saying they're collecting skins? |
This still isn't working. The cotters collected 24 hides then returned.

Have you researched the Scavenging technology in the trade tree in your town?

1 from [city] arrived at [-x|-y] in [region] but began harvesting [1 Boar spear]. 16 hours ago 1 from [city] finished at [-x|-y] in [region] but were unsucessful in their mission and are returning home. 15 hours ago
No bumping, …
This happened twice: is harvesting randomly successful? or do cotters have limits about what they can successfully get (% of adv weapons? — what kind of rounding occurs when there's only 1 item?)?
best regards

Oops mis-copied/edited the notifications, sorry: should read "and began harvesting", "unsuccessful"

Did the 'XXX are left on the square' get dropped from the notification for cotters? Makes it particularly challenging to know how many grapes/hides/etc are left on a spot.
Thanks for the adaptable... very nice feature!

The continuously updated harvesting time for cotters might fall in the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" category. Cotters harvesting grapes now always say they will finish in half an hour, implying they will exhaust the plot, when in fact it will be renewed many times and they will go home with their baskets full of grapes.
Gathering time for multiple cotters on grapes has now become utterly meaningless. I am not sure if this is some sort of bug or if it is intentional. If it was intentional, could you consider changing it back?
