Maybe you should let each character do one type of work so they don't break like that. Have one do farming only and another do baking. I noticed they break when doing job number 2 changes the conditions of job number 1 so it's best to keep things simple. Especially when you have that many characters, it shouldn't be a problem for you. But great video! Keep up the good work!
indeed, this is the best solution i have come up with too. I think I mentioned it during this video at some point -- but maybe i missed it. Typically the only time i assign 1 character to multiple tasks at base is when I want to level up multiple skills now
If you take the time to really sort out the job orders you can have a team of 4 seamlessly do everything you need done with like no down time. I don't recommend it because it's hair pulling and time consuming as hell to debug the issues they have with eachother, but for my small group playthrough i needed it done lol
ur way further than i am, but I am learning! i get frustrated too in terms of ''multi-tasking stuck loop'' but I found a very nice solution while scrolling down thru some reddit posts on Kenshi.. i found that if u chose specifically Farmers and Production line workers to wear different outfits, u will fill the required jobs for everyone.. with all that said, u should fix the loop bug on them.. even with the stack mod I am currently using GI outfits for my farmers and my line workers.. and feels great so far.. i am avoiding to use them in combat, making them passive and on hold.. makes them the best workers. and they don't get STUCK! keep up the good work! u inspired me how to build my base from now on!
6:52 I have a theory about that bread build up in Rane’s inventory: I can see you set him to do cooking and have that on high priority. Every time your main cooking character (Yaraq) walks away from the machine to get ingredients or store the food they made, Rane is interrupted from the lower priority task of taking bread from the bread oven to store it and so ends up just carrying it around? Rane is constantly stuck in the top 4 commands you have given them and never makes it down to command 5 or at least never makes it to the bread basket before being called back to a high command that gets triggered?
I think he carries around the Bread with him because I ask him to cook Foodcubes. Instead of just taking the amount he needs he always takes a full stack. I think because I am playing with an increased stack mod that is an issue too because he doesn't take just 1 stack he takes ALL stacks lol. I have manually offloaded my characters before and forced them to put the Bread into the storage and then seconds later watched them run from storage to storage picking it all back up again. Funny but frustrating lol
7:50 its not a bug, its because you got the mod for stackable items. normally he couldnt ppick up so much since the stack end at 25 or so. They are probalby programmed to pick all up since the stack limit wouldnt let them pick up thousands. But yeah its obnoxius, but some
this is fucking awesome, i just started playing still under 200 hours. to go from mining copper resource to this feels somewhat impossible, from what I understand of the game but this is what I would like to do!
after i understand a bit about FCS,after reinstalling kenshi always made mod to make storage can store 1000 item... because when have to many building my character always stuck sometime not moving. about job let say cooking bread always set farming first,haul to bread basket,then bread oven,grain silo,haul to water storage,well. just leave them and the bread basket will full. if for steelbar ,haul to steel bar,steelbar refinery,iron plate refinery,mining iron. just set the final product in the first slot in your job list.except for farming,always set farming first,so they farm all the crop first then cook. with like that i can manage big base with just 10 people. oh yea let them carry body,and trader backpack with full iron,not in their backpack slot but their body inventory slot.
10:30 mark i 100% disagree ai is poorly coded and or broken......... 1st off its not easy to do what u want. they are not sentient beings. they do as programed. the fact we are able to set them to dif jobs etc watch them and so on is amazing. if u legit watched what ur workers do. its amazing they work at all imo. i played farm sim and watched ai grow over the last 7 years. in that game. sadly to go backwards in quality somehow. always the moders who improve it somehow. for this engine to run the tasks that they do so many dif npcs running around in the world, pathing, jobing etc. it is legit amazing it works as well as it does. this game is amazing. def not perfect. lots of room to grow, improve on. like the ai. but again to do what they did on such and old engine. something NO other game company has EVER DONE. with such a small team and budget is truly amazing. most expensive games made dont come close to the quality of this game. but because of their budget and advertising they do better sales. and ofc now being online being a huge seller. multiplayer.
As far as i know only books can stack in a characters inventory. Only in a Wooden Backpack can other items be stacked. But my guys for some reason only take 2 items at a time even if they have space for more and even if they need more.
2 stack per worker means more trips , but if one worker took say 10 to build a 1 item object other worker jobs could stall for lack of resources and the excess would require a dump resources trip. You can Manually get a worker to take a full load for say a wall or large building project if you want to.
either this is fixed, the 8-9 min bug or i figured out how to set jobs so they dont bug out like that lol. i never seen them carry 1k items of anything...... u must have stacking mod. still though. i learned how to prioritize jobs and have them working 4-5 and no issuse. but u have to set the jobs in order. and sometimes i learned to have others come overlap. So making flour great axample. my flour maker gets full, he offloads to the bread maker. the bread gets full he offloads that...' sadly if the bread gets full though and he still got wheat to grind he focus that job......... but ofc cant cause bread maker is full so to fix. 2nd person does just bread collecting. usually higher up task. usually my cook does that job since they need bread anyway. keeps the bread chain flowing and everyone happy. little things like that. i set up my base slow. watched how the ai worked and messed with it for 60 hours or so. im sure kenshi devs have made improvement tweaks too just from looking at ur job listing mine says dif things from urs. so u xed things off u needed or thats been added in later patches
Good vid dude. This location is way off the map center for my liking. Still it's fun to settle there and pester millions of foggies. Judging by the items in the inventory , you are using mod(s), or a very weird option settings. Just a reminder - In vanilla, default setting, any item in the inventory doesn't stack, at all. Backpack - stacking is there, not in the hundreds of items per stack tho. Also I have noticed, in any vanilla or modded game I played, if you put more jobs on 1 person, that are interconnected, resource wise, the job priorities tend to get messed up. And that person gets stuck. My solution to this - less jobs for each base dweller, so more peeps in the supply chain. Things got pretty straightforward that way, mess was cleared.
Yea I am using a stack mod, some items stack in your inventory but not many without mods. I think pack animals nothing stacked on them IIRC. I am not a fan of inventory/weight mechanics in games when they're designed to be annoying so I often use mods/codes to get around it
At 6:05, you have a character named Lytelthorpe... IS THAT AN ASHERON'S CALL REFERENCE? edit: Oh my god I just saw the other names. DUDE! Finding another AC fan is incredible. I would be best friends with Mayoi.
@@KawaiiCutie Also played around 99-01. I tried DT once, but was a 13 year old kid and it was a bit too much for me. I think I was recruited by one of the rival gangs to Blood.
If you can only do one thing at a time, you're kinda dumb in comparison to others who can juggle multiple things at once. If you make a game where your AI can only do one task at a time and in other games you can set them up to do 10+... Then yes, in comparison, this AI is worse than others. Also how do you know how my Rane The Giant identifies? For all you know in this world maybe she is a he? =D
