Bug with villager SHIFT QUEUE command after garrisson

[wilkinsondr]

• Build Number:14.1.5602.0

• Platform: Steam

• Operating System: Windows 11

Issue:

Villagers do not react properly to SHIFT commands after using the “Return to work” option.

Trigger Event:

Any time of the game, any map, any civ, any mode.

Repro Steps:

1. Start a Skirmish game
2. Select one villager and use it to build a house
3. With the builder villager selected, use the option to “Seek Shelter”
4. Click on the Town Center
5. Wait for the villager to be garrisoned inside the Town Center
6. Use the option “Return to Work” or “Return All to Work”
7. The Villager will correctly go back to construct the house
8. Select the villager building the house again
9. Hold SHIFT and issue the command to build a mining camp

Expected Behaviour:

1. Villager keeps building the house until finished
2. Villager will build the mining camp

Current Behaviour:

1. Villager will not complete the house and will start to build the mining camp

Important:

1. If you click on send back to work before the villager enters the Town Center, the shift queue will work properly.
2. This bug can be reproduced even if you just garrison the villager inside the Town Center.
3. This bug can be reproduced if the villager garrisons inside other buildings other than a Town Center.

Saw some other posts mentioning this, still no fix and no message in patch notes for season 12 about fixing it.

I saw multiple times a streamer complaining about this, as it breaks the expectation of how shift queue should work in the game.
