Ditching Resources

[ZombiePotatoSalad]

So, I found a very annoying thing that my characters do while in town. I go to mine a bunch of iron for strength training outside a town, then head into town for supplies. While standing at the shop counter, my character gets the goal "Ditching Resources," and proceeds to the nearest ore storage box... in a store.

Later, I buy some bread, and my character gets the same goal. So he heads to the bakery, PAST CLOSING TIME, and drops bread that I paid for into the barrel (I had left the game running, and didn't notice until I saw the shopkeeper yelling).

What is going on? I'm losing resources and food that I mined/paid for, and as long as my character is in town, they will try to dump them into the proper recepticle.

To reproduce it, buy a commodity that is traded in the town, and stand still for a while.
This happened with bread in Blister Hill, and iron ore in Stack, I believe.

Do you have any property in said towns? I'd think that if you own a building, then the whole town might be counted as "your optpost" somewhere in the code, thus the ditching.

Either way though, this doesn't seem right indeed.

P.S.:
By the way, because of your post i've figured that my translation for those "ditching" goals were incorrect So, thank you very much for unintentional help!

Actually having similar issue.
my squads are ditching their food. and they are running back to the base to do it.
I have a base in the hub and all my character does is run back to base and dump any food into the food storage.
While I like the idea of ditching resources, I think it should be restricted to those who have the engineer task on.
or made as a button so that we can select a group and tell them to ditch their stuff.
Either way I would not have it effect food.
