One of the more puzzling elements ofManor Lordsare the piles of supplies that get left behind after demolishing a structure, or you’ll find yourself side-eyeing a random log left abandoned on the ground. InManor Lords,these items get destroyed by the weather if they lay around too long, and they also impede the construction of new buildings on the site.
Yet, even if there is a storehouse nearby and idle villagers walking around, the supplies may remain there, taunting players who crave order in their medieval town.
Make villagers quickly remove supplies in Manor Lords
Move exposed goods/supplies to storage in Manor Lords
Occasionally, you will get an icon on the info bar at the top of the screen, warning that there are exposed goods that need to be moved to a Storehouse or Granary. One would think thatassigning a villagerto one of these buildings would quickly clear up any supplies laying around, but sometimes it feels like the discarded goods aren’t being removed in any semblance of a timely fashion.
Unfortunately, the answer to the problem is basically to just wait, though there are a couple of tricks that can expedite things. Assigning more workers to the Storehouse or Granary, while also making sure that there is aroad connecting the supplies to the buildings, may lessen your wait time. you’re able to also “limit the work area” to the specific location where the excess supplies are, forcing workers to focus and move items to storage more efficiently.
Logs, on the other hand, aren’t held in a Storehouse or Granary, but rather a Logging Camp. As with the Granary and Storehouse, you may limit the loggers’ work area to the spot with the surplus timber. If that isn’t working, you can try either building a new, closer Logging Camp or un-assign workers from an existing one. This will free up oxen and cause the now idle villagers to pick up any abandoned logs sullying your lovely town. Don’t forget to select “clear work area” in the Logging Camp, Granary, or Storehouse interface once the untidy items have been hauled away.
Now, if you want to build a pasture for your newly acquiredsheep inManor Lordsand there are discarded logs clogging up that prime real estate, you won’t be forced to relocate or thumb twiddle while waiting for somebody to clean up the mess. A few quick clicks and some micromanagement should clear it right up.
