  2. count on 5 minutes how many food 1 - 7 villagres gather. Divide them between 7 or his respective number of villagers gathering
  3. see how when 8 villagers assigned to a mill, the gathering per villager start to decrease

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:question: What was supposed to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
having 10 villagers working on a mill should have an steady increase on gathering per second.

:arrow_forward: ACTUAL RESULT

:question: What actually happened (what went wrong) because of the issue you’re reporting?
The gathering per second graphic per villager when having more than 7 villagers starts starts to decline
(when having 7 for example each villager can gather 0.85 food per second constanly, but when having 8 villagers gathering the gathering is interrumpted when villagers bump each other and then the gathering of villager per second is 0.80 maybe, i dont know, because of that bumping)

giving a result similar to this:
10 villagers
8989 total food collected
1.501 food/villager/sec

7 villagers
6777 total food collected
1.6135 food/villager/sec
