Egyptian vils not dropping resources they have collected when finishing building drop sites

Age of Mythology: Retold Report a Bug
1

  • Game Version: age of mythology retold

  • Build Number: 18.9036

  • Platform: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 10

Issue:

when tasking a villager to collect a resource then build a drop off site the resources semi regularly aren’t dropped off. I have ran into this since launch with Egyptian as trying to collect the 20 (or 8 if playing Isis) wood and then build a mill or mining camp doesn’t always give you the wood when the building is complete. It is probably happening on other occasions as well however it is very noticeable with the example I have given.

Trigger Event:

I have only noticed it happen during the above example since launch. I have tried to make sure the villagers start building the building together and therefore definitely complete it but the resources still vanish (probably a quarter of the time) when doing this. Empowerment also plays no factor as i have tried both with and without empowerment and the resources can still randomly vanish. I would guess it could be happening regularly with all Civs but it is hard to track and I imagine people aren’t noticing

Repro Steps:

I do not know what is causing it. I have experimented to see if I can stop it happening or make it happen and have had no success. It just seems to randomly happen about a quarter of the time

I think that what you’re experiencing is probably a version of this: Shift Clicked Villagers Don't Drop Off Resources

Hey @Cropps93, thank you for the report, this is a known issue and is being tracked :slight_smile:

No i am sorry i dont think this is correct. I am not shift clicking anything when I am having the issue. If I shift clicked the vils would have to finish all wood from the tree and then move on which is never what I want. I often only want 8 or 20 wood so manually move them to the drop site. no shift queue being used. I think the issues is vils are not dropping their resources correctly when completing drop sites, tcs, farms etc like they should regardless of shift click being used
