My guy refuses to mine iron when he already has iron on him. I'm not talking his inventory being full of iron, he just has one piece of iron. If he has iron, he refuses to mine iron, and I have to go make him sell it or put it away in a chest. Same thing happens with copper, and presumably all ores.

Some details. I'm not ordering him to do it as a permanent task. If location has anything to do with it, I'm near the Rebel Base. (However i'm not mining the Rebel Base's ore, I have iron that is counted as my town.) I have no dedicated ore storage box.

I am having a similar issue. I had set several members up to mine ore as a job. Previously if they had any ore at all, they would drop it off in the ore storage box i built. However, they would go back and mine after they did that, so overall, did not cause many issues. Recently though, they have ore in their inventory, so they stopped mining, but then would not bring it to the ore storage either. I tried moving them around as sometimes i have found that helps but it did not do anything. So now all they do is stand there, only moving to go to my food storage if they need it.

I believe the cause now is very diffirent from that from 2016. Did you have "ditching resources" AI option enabled? Also, were your guys on hold? Because when they are, from last time i remember, they will pretty much just stand around and do nothing.
