Houses occasionally change worker type

[MysteryMachine]

Occasionally, especially when moving a lot of houses, a house will change worker types on me. Its not always reproduceable but generally start moving a bunch of work houses around and usually one will change to a farmer.

I've seen the same thing. I've interpreted it to be a user error - perhaps I'm not clicking and dragging, or perhaps I've quasi-clicked while moving the mouse... not really sure. As you say, I've not been able to get it to happen consistently.

The whole mouse interface is buggy, I'd say. Response time is really slow, so it's very hard to manage the mouse-overs. I have a tough time in the Tech Table screen particularly.

I'm getting the same thing, too. Switching a 17 worker to a 2 farmer is a pretty bad switch, too.

Yes, this is a very common bug. A similar bug is one where a stonemason will suddenly say "Lots of stone here!" when I've had him switching to cut down wood. Weird. Lots of stone in the forest?
