Trigger Event:

Use kuafu to create a silo, went for the closest resource (wood) and then proceeded as stated above

Repro Steps:

A friend asked me to repro this bug, and I achieved it on my first try in under 6 minutes.

  1. Create kuafus
  2. Task them to gather wood
  3. Wait to see if any start gathering wood from an undesirable location

It’s not only happening with the Kuafus. It also occurs with the Greek villagers; they are traveling to the back of the forest many times to gather the finest woods.

Hi - just wanted to add that it is not just after chopping tree but after building silo - and happens a lot causing long paths right after building which can affect competitive play.
