Few days ago there were some changes related to cotters including their timer. And yes it displays time correctly only during first hour and after that it is not working as it should and it repeats to display only 1h timers.


But I am not sure if there is petition about it.

Two little silly things in the display of "Your town's harvesting" on the Trade Movements page's Movements tab:

* In the "Location" column, each entry says "Location: [10|281] in Norwald" and is line-wrapped because of the inclusion of the word "Location:" - it's redundant at the start of each entry in a column which has this as its heading anyway. Eliminating it would let the entries in the column fit in the column without line-wrapping.

* When a cotter is harvesting, the progress slider only uses its last few pixels to indicate the whole variation within an hour. Just after completing one 5-unit batch of harvesting, the timer says there's just under an hour of work to do, but the slider is almost at its right-hand end already, working its way through the remaining short section towards completion.

I *suspect* the last is displaying the "work remaining" in the present 5-unit block of work against a "total work" that represents everything the cotter shall do before turning for home - the result is that the slider runs from 95% to 100% twenty times instead of: either running from 0% to 100% once for the whole batch of 100 units collected; or running from 0% to 100% for each block of 5 units that gets added to the inventory within that batch.
