Workshops

Workshops are constructed to manufacture goods for consumption by your gnomes or for export through a merchant at a market stall.

Each workshop has its own adjustable priority and maintains a list of the tasks assigned to it. Gnomes working at the shop will start at the top of the list, completing each task and skipping to the next as the materials needed run out. This means that if you put two items on Repeat assigned gnomes will never craft the second item if they never run out of supplies for the first.

You can prevent this by using the Craft To command to have the first item manufactured up to a specific quantity. Your gnome will then move to manufacture the second item repeatedly until the first falls below the limit set. Unless a stockpile for completed items is set up the items crafted will pile up on the workshop floor. This increasingly reduces efficiency and slows production until the workshop is completely full. When full, production stops completely and the workshop floor turns red.
