Current Behavior
My level 5 couriers dont take any tasks while my lower level couriers do all the jobs. This why, the task list of the level 5 couriers is empty, while when I ask for items from the stash the item delivery is in places over 100, what is very slow. I don't really know, what causes this issue, but maybe the check for the number of items to deliver and see, that a lower tier delivery man would be better, because the would run nearly empty (1 of 36 slots (University Upgrade for more Inv space) is worst capacity utilization then 1 of 3 or 5)
Expected Behavior
A more even distribution of the workload between the works. I don't know, how the current system works, but maybe it can be adjusted so that the delivery man with the lowest number of tasks get the new tasks. This would cause the task to be more even distributed but can cause inefficiency depending on local distribution (2 delivery man get pickup tasks next to each other, that one could easy handle). Maybe a handling in step sizes would be a solution to. So, tasks get floor divided by 10 for example and if the number is equal (both hat 0-9, 10-19 etc. tasks), they distribution will depend on distance and efficiency but when it is not equal, the delivery man with the lower number of tasks will get the tasks. This could prevent this kind of very uneven distribution.
Reproduction Steps
- Build town to level 5
- research the 9 more slots for citizens
- upgrade most delivery man to level 5
- Even resetting the request system does not cause equal distribution between delivery man

yes, 2. But the level 5 and the lower level, which take all the tasks work at one
I had no issues util now. My be caused by upgrading delivery man to level 5. I don't have any other idea
Never mind. It was an issue with my food system. Cook only keeped carrots for some reason what my level 5 workes didnt like... So the got stuck there...
Should I reopen for the restaurant issue? Or make a new one? I have more then enough raw beef for steak, rabbit etc. but the restaurant only stocked on carrots what my level 5 citizens dont want to eat.
Or is the normal solution to disable such foods or minimum stock the better ones?
Thanks, very nice
