How many Kenshi does it take to change a lightbulb?

[PnzrNorm]

Yeah I tried the live in town thing. Just because I was wanting to roam at the time. An leave one man to research while I was there in town. I found out if you leave town. No matter what you put in that building would be gone when you came back.

Have you seen this happen before?
Does it happen every time?

Only tried it once was starting out did not have much cats yet so did not want to try it again. Will try it again next time I am in town to see what happens.

Day 81 into my game.

The old research bench I have in Brink is still there the last time I checked it, so it could have been a minor glitch?

Continuing on topic, my current base setup and job allocation if I want everyone to be doing something:

1) Plate and Chain armour crafting + Plate beating and Chainmail sheet fabrication
2) Weapon Smith II and Weapon Smith III
3) Leather Armour and Leather Tanning + Clothing Bench
4) Medical Assembly Desk
5) Fabric Loom
6,7) Cooking Stove + Rum Still
8,9,10,11) Small farm X 2 (One for making flour, the other for Rum)
12) Grain Silo
13,14) Hemp farm X 2 (One for Fabric, the other for First Aid kits)
15) Steel Refinery
16) Stone Refinery
* ) 4 X Miscellaneous jobs that would be freed up after full research is done. Considering I have 4 turrets the gate, that pretty much uses up all my people.

Most of the crafting stations can be taken offline and only manned when required, so other than the 4 turrets I have, I can potentially take up 16 people out to roam, leaving 4 to man the whole empty base. I shall have my men start drawing lots...

For some reason my kenshi cannot properly operate the automated stone processor. All i need them to do is load the dang thing and they just stand there (their inventories are empty before anyone suggests it lol). Does anyone have any idea why all 20 of my kenshi cant change the lightbulb?! lol.

Assuming you haven't solved this yet, maybe check out the suggestions made in another post:

I haven't tried it myself yet, but would it be possible to prevent things from disappearing if we set the building to private and also lock the doorway before leaving and locking the gateway after you are outside?
