Ox cart blocking villagers gathering

Age of Mythology: Retold Report a Bug
1

  • Game Version: any

  • Build Number: any

  • Platform: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 10

Issue:

Ox carts are blocking villagers when gathering resources. I’ve even had it happen with my first 3 vills at the start for example, 1 gets blocked and then can’t gather food. Solution : Move ox cart manually
This never happened in the original aot.
The ox cart should get out of the way when a vill of the same player wants to pass by

Screenshot will be added soon.

Trigger Event:

Use the ox cart to be in the way of a villager to gather food / wood / gold, the villager will become idle and the ox cart will need to be moved manually.

Repro Steps:

  1. Assign villager to food or wood
  2. Put ox cart between another villager and itself
  3. Villager will become idle as it cannot move.

This is really frustrating. The only solution I have found is to put the ox cart in proximity but not on the actual node. This is of course more inefficient. So its a really frustrating thing. VIllageers should just phase through it, or they should be able to push it away and then it could just reposition again on the node.
