Solved: Colonists wont eat when in priority task (1,2,3,4) mode

[guken9922]

yeah been a few games now where ill set a bunch of priorities, have foods in my stockpiles and theyll be too busy to eat, i get this bug in alpha 2 and 3. I can understand if there was no food.. but there is.. and theyll go to sleep with hunger at 0...

it'd be nice if there could be like a "water fountain" piece of furniture people regularly use that staves away hunger deaths or something and maybe refreshes desire to "check_if_unit_is_starving/go_eat_nearest_edible" code or something. could go into water management later on but a quick fix. not sure how to combat this bug since food is right there :/

Can you post a savegame where this is happening? Zip it if necessary.

ive kinda solved this
if you build enough tables and chairs they eat mor often

Note that if you only have raw food they'll wait till they're near-starving to eat.

yep i can confirm again that tables an chairs and cooking stoves will make them eat if not theyll just focus on work and forget to eat
