Stop resource consumption by worker if the worker is idle #199

Open BLucky-gh opened 3 years ago

BLucky-gh commented 3 years ago

Game version v 0.3.3

Description right now if for example I am full on ropes, the workers stop producing more ropes because there's nowhere to put them, but they still consume the ingredients even if they're not producing the product, so my suggestion is to make them stop consuming ingredients if storage is full for them

Workers will always consume food and water, even if they are not assigned to any job. You still have to fend for your people even if they're not working.

However I think for other ingredients, like metal used by toolsmiths, it would make sense to stop consumption if storage is full. I'll check that.

is that a change versus the version currently published on github.io? in that version, unassigned workers do not consume resources.

You're right, actually in the latest version they don't, my bad.
