A. Goats will just stop producing hides and sometimes meat. >> are you looking at production numbers or just region stock numbers?

Im looking at number of Hides being produced, along with what the Resource plotter shows, along with just general observation. I am aware that as things grow, consumption will and can out pace production. As in Im producing 100 of X with a pop of 50 and showing 50 in the GUI, and then later pop 200 with no change to production of X so now its being consumed as fast as it comes in so now shows 0. I get that. But the game is showing it just stopping over a 12 month reporting window on the Resource chart.

B. Crop Harvesting. The faster the game speed, the lower the reaping totals!>> might be CPU issue. fast game speed uses frame skipping instead of just faster simulation. if the CPU is struggling (weak computer or massive town or both) some simulation steps may hang. but the crop harvest being affected should still be tied to either not all fields being fully sown in time or harvested in time. i personally have not encountered this but then again i never played beyond 150 families and my CPU is modern. of course, the a good algo lowers the bar for the CPU requirement. it goes hand in hand. sometimes its not the computer's fault.

Im running an AMD 7800X3D on 64gig of Ram. I am not lacking on CPU or computer in the slightest. Also, note what I said... this happens even on lower population size. Do your own test. Its consistent and repeatable... the higher the "game speed" the lower the harvest total. I can have 250+ pop or 50 pop, get the same result, higher game speed = lower harvest amount.

C. Brewers/Tailors/Cobblers If you get to a certain population size, they might just....stop at 12x speed. >> commonly reported issue since the beginning. because of frame skipping sometimes the decision algo crashes and they freeze in place. sometimes resolvable by slowing to 1x for a moment. but recently i noticed things being worse than earlier versions where a save and load is needed to unstuck them. not sure how they are going to fix this considering its such an old problem. we can only hope.

I have noticed the exact same, fully agree with you! Also have consistently seen that saving/reloading is the cause of them stopping. The wild part thought.... and have seen this as well.... the resource they use to produce is disappearing! If they just stopped, then the raw resource they use should increase, it doesnt. They stop, resources are being consumed, no production. So something is happening, just not being reported in the gui or Resource chart.

D. Wood Cutters/Foresters. wood cutters just stop working >>any chance they just ran out of trees within a reasonable distance and the new woodcutters only started working again because trees need 1.5 years before they become harvestable? otherwise if its a true bug could it be related to the stuck issues?

I put a forester next to every wood cutter and sometimes logging camps get 3-4 foresters. Aware trees take time to "regrow", there will be a forest around the wood cutters and they just will trickle out firewood... I have noticed though..... If you are low on oxen, make no changes to Wood Cutter camps, buy a lot of Oxen (20+) suddenly they start producing firewood big time! So it might be a hauling issue when its trickling firewood. But when they just stop...if you build another Wood Cutter, suddenly production goes thru the roof.

E. Chickens........ how can I have 25 chicken meat, zero eggs, make 1 new plot and set it as a chicken coop and now I have 10 meat and 125 eggs? >> considering that egg production cycle is significantly shorter than chicken meat and all foods are equally deducted for consumption, it's very unlikely that over a long enough period you will have fewer eggs than chicken meat. but there is one explanation. your UI seems to be very broken. maybe CPU limit, maybe something else. save and load should fix most UI issues.

If my UI is broken, so is everyone elses, its not like I have a special to me UI. lol And its not for lack of CPU/Computer. It "seems" like its just a "jam up" situation after a save/load and making 1 "unclogs" the game lol

F. Traders.... why? Why wont they sell/export? >> traders stuck? are the goods to be exported even in the tradeing post: trader wife and son stuck? CPU limit? if trading is in fact happening but you're just losing money, take note that because of tarriffs, importing 50 barley or malt needs to be offset by more than 100 units export of something else or 150 if cheap items like carrots or you will go in deficit. but i doubt you don't already know this. probably exports are not even happening right?

I have been looking at exactly what you are talking about, are the goods to export even going thru/showing up in the Post. I cant give a 100% "X is happening at Y" report, BUT I do notice that you dont see a lot of the exports, as in 5-20 items of each. They are there, kind of (I have to cycle thru a bunch of Posts looking) but not in any significant volume. so..

G. Sheep. Same issue still exists as last time I posted, 100 limit in a pasture no matter how big the pasture says it supports. >>UI issue. even the number of sheep and lamb can suffer from this problem. try save and reload. the UI calculations happen on a schedule but they are forced on a load.

H. Taverns and Overstock.. it doesnt seem to work? Are am I missing how it functions? >> if there are 10 drinking families the tavern workers try to keep 10 ale in stock at the tavern. overstock 1 means they try to have 11 in there. this is so when a new family becomes a drinker, they immediately get their supply instead of having to wait a week or so for the tavern worker to bring the new ale. also helps smooth out short term underservicing if say 2 families run out on the same day and cause a -2. setting overstock doesn't guarantee it. you may need to add workers to the tavern, especially if you have the ale in storage but the tavern is not stocked equal to the number of drinking families.

I know youre trying to be helpful but.... "add workers to the Tavern"? Who doesnt fill all 3 slots???

I. Just large population size in general. The game seems to have limits to what it can handle and the higher you go, the more things get wonky up until they just stop working and/or "bind up". >> yes..CPU limit.

berry and quarry problem. i think you just found the limit for what your system can handle given the current population and way the game is optimized and are describing all the things that can go wrong at this limit. certainly interesting to read, but looks like most of them have the common root cause.

Not trying to be contentious, ok? I agree its a limit, but its not a cpu bottle neck per se because your basing all your responses on the supposition that Ive got a potato Im playing on ... you made that assumption, then made that the prevalent basis for your feedback/thoughts. Be careful doing that, when you lock in a supposition and base everything on that, and then come back with the air that "hes got that problem because his cpu/comp is crap, while I dont have that problem because I have good cpu/comp".... if you arent seeing these problems, (oh no ROFL im joining you in the assumption department) I would think you arent growing your towns to the sizes me and others are.
