Hi jess.
E and r cycle betwene catagories of people, eg builders, peasants, all etc,
while d and f cycle betwene individual people in each catagory. A and s
change the job of the selected person.
You can also change jobs with control keys, for a ful list see the readme.
As to which workers are idle, that is a harder thing because of how
castaways works. When a job needs doing, one of the correct workers will do
it. if that worker cannot do a job they default to their secondary job and
try to do that, for example if there are no logs to chop into lumber the
carpenter will become a lumberjack.
The art to the game is dynamically changing people's jobs around according
to what you need doing. If your building something and so need to take
peasants of their usual work to build, make certain there is enough food in
the tavern, or perhaps reassign some other jobs as peasants to carry food
there.
If nobody is sick, there's litle use for a doctor and your better off with
another peasant etc.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Subject: [Audyssey] castaways question
hi. I just started playing castaways, and I have a few questions. How do
you cycle through the people? I keep changing their jobs without meaning
to, when I just want to look at their stats. And secondly, how do you tell
which workers are idle? Thanks much.
Jess
