Isn't that pretty much pick me up mod?

Works beautifully, even got it to work on an existing save by removing the exisiting fields and replacing them with new fields.

HA! Thought this was broken as crops sit in baskets with 0% crop. I freed up all builders and gave me enough labor to pick up all the crops. Fun to watch and a realistic feature for the game. Thanks!

@HatefulEmpire are you able to share the save file with me?

Just causes my crops to sit in neat piles until winter deletes them. More Labor doesn't help, more farmers doesn't help. Seems to just slow the whole process down. Use with caution:(

You're welcome! It also works with orchards :)

Yes

If the labourers (for whatever reason) NOT pick up the harvested crops, do the farmers/orchardists pick them up when they have done harvesting and become temporarily Labourers themselves?

i have about 60 laborers but they just don't pick up the harvested crops. They do anything else. Thanks for looking this problem.

From a glance I can't really seem to find an option to do this. "Pickup priority" does not really seem to be a thing and my guess on vanilla pickup behaviour is whatever drops first will get picked up. There may also be some distance logic I am not too sure.

Can't say I've really run into any issues with regards to getting it picked up. Just FYI, laborers in general will do the following:
Clearing the terrain of trees, rocks and iron
Carrying raw materials to storage
Carrying raw materials from storage to construction sites

Could you perhaps have too many other things queued up or not enough farmers for them to prioritise picking up crops?
Stewie  [author] 9 Jul, 2023 @ 6:30am 
I will have to look into the option for this. By collecting wood do you harvesting it via the tool?

The intermediate solution would be to employ labourers as they should gather all of those things… it’s more created for mid-late game when there usually a small abundance of spare labourers that can lend a hand with collecting crops
✪Kurosendo 2 Jul, 2023 @ 7:52am 
is there any priority increasment for picking crops and fruits over collecting wood and other stuff? i am asking this because after harvest my crops and fruits stays there for season nobody picks them up

This is Vanilla behaviour. The only thing I've altered is whether or not the farmers pickup the crop that they harvest automatically.

(Vanilla) Once farmers have gathered their crops from their assigned field they "act" like labourers. They don't actually join the labourer job force.
So when the next farming seasons come they stop doing labourer tasks and go back to farming automatically.

When you say, "Once the farmers harvest all their crop they become laborers as usual, until the next farm cycle."

Do you mean that the mod causes the farmers to become laborers automatically? Or are you just implying the expectation that we'll reassign them (which is reasonable)?

Yes.

But have you achieved the steam achievements yet?
