Imagine this scenario: I put 5 mil in the coffers, and get 100% favor. I'm already done Royal Trouble, so I put 100% work on maples and then leave the remaining 50% idle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The question is: Will I be charged 50k per day or 75k per day? Do we pay for idling workers?

Bump, can anybody answer this?

Interesting question :? I really don't know the answer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But why not just put the other 5 workers on something like flax or coal?

My extra 5 workers are currently on coal, but I don't really need more of that stuff. What's more important to me now is cheap firemaking xp and tree seeds.

In that case, I would just experiment with it for one day. If it turns out that 1/3 of your work goes to waste, then go back to putting them on coal.

Yeah, that was plan B. I figured that asking here first might be simpler, and could save me 25k.

No idea. Why don't you test it out for us? :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm gonna find out if your workers work when you're banned! I put 1 million in the coffers at 100% and got 7 day banned the following morning. :wall:

i know it doesnt really fit in your idea but why not just put the extra 5 on flax and sell it? easy, no work profit and theres a huge market for it
