Steps to reproduce the issue / details

Just reporting the AI issue.

Notes

Citizens do not start working in the morning if they are further than 2 chunks from the player. It is necessary to approach them or call them to the town hall.

There is an optifine problem that makes citizens not wake up if you're not standing right next to the hut. There are some config values around that you have to adjust.

that is some other mod's doing, not minecolonies

There is an optifine problem that makes citizens not wake up if you're not standing right next to the hut. There are some config values around that you have to adjust.

I got the same issue. After looking up some issues now I know this is a Optifine issue, but since you said we can adjust some config to fix it, can you please give more details?

Turn off the "smooth world" setting.

Turn off the "smooth world" setting.

Thanks very much! After doing some research now I know that "smooth world" is related to "chunk loading" not "world texture/block loading". It seems that this setting stops chunks from loading if they are far away, which reduces lag but become a problem.
