Questions about the workers

[Radzeer]

Well workers live in those houses. In each house two of them. Mr and Mrs. You can check it - above the upgrading building you can see their faces.
So if they live so nicely in those houses keeping it clean and so, shall we not get after some time additional baby workers?

The Chinese do have an additional worker, where does he/she live?
Is the Chineese extra worker she or he?

How are they selected for an ordered upgrade (if you have more free workers as the upgrade/build requires)? I mean I have now 4 girls upgrading my mortar, I doubt it will shoot properly (eeeh, hiding for cover

As soon as my base is attacked all workers run for cover to the TC (stupid idea, if you ask me - my TC is one of the first buildings to get destroyed usually). Why they do not run into their houses? And when we are at that running, those lazy bastards, when I ask them to hunt a bunny they just run half of that speed as they are running to hide, But that's not so important. They have some weapons to kill the animals, couldn't they just try to kill few attackers with that as well, instead of running to the TC?

Clearing forests: The Stone age workers can clean a forest tile in 15 mins, iirc, Those Global Age workers need 7 days for the same job, They should rather use those Stone age axes, howgh

I recall seeing my Chinese workers change genders. As far as them running to the town centre, thats fine. Presumably the TC is better protected than their houses. They might even be packing cannons.
Baby workers? My workers usually don't have time for silly activities like that
The extra worker just crashes at a random house, likes to play third wheel in numerous activities.
When they clear forests, they use the same stone age axes, so they get rather blunt. Depending on how many forests you cleared, it may take global age workers less or more than 7 days to clear a forest Maybe clear in a few days? if that's possible.

None of my workers have been home for 15 months, so unless they are screwing on the job, no little kiddy workers.

I should be able to sell those houses, nice bit of profit since I built them so long ago.

And now in in these later ages, I guess trade unions, labour laws, health & safety, EU working time directive have all had their part to play in reducing productivity to near zero.

Good job BHG didn't put kids down the gold mines originally or we'd be waiting a month for 4 lumps of metal. Game balancing at it's finest.

What do you think actually happens in those tanks when they mindlessly attack walls? Auto pilot is on for a reason.

Obviously male council workers clearing my land - two supervising and one driving the bulldozer... taking days because they don't work in the rain

........... you think WAY too much op

 

[Eddie F1]

Are you implying there are lady tank drivers?

Perhaps the AI isn't so artificial after all.

Bulldozers!?! Are you kidding? My workers are still using a rusty old axe shared among the 3 of them to clear the forest! Taking their own bloody sweet time!!!

Maybe you should consider giving them award rates; protective clothing and a margherita machine
