0.98.26 Ignored Food Stores?

[Drodnela]

The food stores are ignored by my characters on occasion. Food Stores are all over the outpost and full of food. I haven't been able to identify the cause; I'll leave an outpost for some time and when I check back characters are on the verge of death from starvation. An import temporarily provides relief.

Made a new topic because I replied to an old post that mentioned the very same bug, but the subject may be misleading.

Same here.

And worse than that, if I feed them manually, they go and put spare in the store, then run away and starve.

I've experienced a similar issue. Sometimes my people just throw all their food into the stores. Same issue with my animal feeders. Feeders are full of food and the animals are right next to the feeder, but refuse to use it. I have to drop food into their backpacks manually. Trying to recall if the Bonedogs I had ignored the feeders too intermittently.

I've had the same no auto-eating problem once and only temporarily. Workaround I read in another post was to load a save, which worked for me. I saved a file with the issue, and some combination of restarting the game and reloading the save fixed the issue. Haven't had it again.

Fiddling with HOLD might also help. I often find my people or animals on hold not touching any food, just standing there faithfully, waiting for the end. This stance is really confusing more often than not.
