First, my current settlers, I have a:

Farmer,

Carpenter,

Forester,

Miner,

Cook,

1 cow,

and a new Settler who appeared out of nowhere that cannot have a Profession assigned.

I have a lot of work orders lined up, such as cutting, collecting water, etc. but most of my settlers are just idling. What gives!? And once I have edible food and purified water, do settlers consume them automatically regardless of their position? How do livestock access food and water? Currently I have an animal pen 'room' that has some random plants growing in it, and a water + food trough. My settlers are automatically bringing purified water to the water trough, but how does the food trough get filled?

So many questions! The Odd Realm Wiki doesn't have much helpful info either unfortunately...

Thanks for the clarification settler! The 18yo thing definitely clears up a few things.

The permission thing with the work orders I understand, but in my situation even my miner, forester, and carpenter were not doing their related job tasks. They were not low on energy , food, or water nor were they resting / relaxing. Just idle, according to their tooltips. I have noticed productivity changes throughout the day, are my settlers dependent on the time of day for when they feel like doing the most work?

Lastly, a level 10 warrior came to my village to offer protection, and I thought she was going to join my settlers. After her dialogue introduction, she was nowhere to be found. Has this encounter ever happened to you?

Hi there! If this issue persists, can you send me your save file so I can try to diagnose the issue?

Send your saved game folder to: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Save folder locations:
Location on Windows: C:\users\you\appdata\locallow\Unknown Origin Games\Odd Realm
Location on Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Unknown Origin Games/Odd Realm
Location on Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Unknown Origin Games/Odd Realm

You can just zip up and send me the entire odd realm folder.

If not, I understand. Would also help if you can take a screenshot of the issue. Maybe I can get an idea from that.

Sure, it fixed itself once the night passed and now they are all back to work. If it happens again ill save immediately and send you all the data

Ok. Sounds good! The only thing I can think of is that they might have been relaxing, but you said they didn't appear to be?
