Colonists idle 24/7?

[ManLikeKart]

hello again, i have 3 colonists that are always idle and dont do anything, i have put up orders for them to chop and mine but they continue to stand there they're all capable of mining and chopping wood, but they refuse to do it and always stay idle?
Plus, when i try and right click the order the little task thing doesnt show up.

Can you please check that all our Pawns are set to "unrestricted" in the Restrict tab. If that is not the cause then please confirm whether or not you are using any mods (if you are then that's almost certain to be the cause of your problem. Not least because I've seen this issue reported numerous times over the years, and 99% of the time it's because of mods or restricted areas. Usually the former).

Im running a ''medieval'' mod and some FPS increasing mods, and all 3 of my colonists allowed areas are ''unrestricted'' could that be the issue?

Moving this to mod bugs (because that's what this is). The support forum is only for people having trouble getting the vanilla game to run properly.

Mods can (and some do) make extensive changes to the game, meaning they are capable of causing a variety of different bugs. Sometimes because a mod itself has a bug, but more often because of something else. eg. Incompatible mods, mod clashes, out-of-date mods, load order issues (and likely others I'm forgetting or don't know).

I know little to nothing about mods and/or their bugs, so I won't be able to help you with this issue. And anyone who is able and willing to will almost certainly need your mod list and log file. (and as a general rule you should always post your log file whenever you are asking for help with anything bug/support related).

Details on where to find your log file can be found here: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=513.0 . Post it as an attachment please (zip if it's too big). The log file also contains your mod list.
