Nothing appears in the status bar, either suggesting that they can build there, or showing the percentage of work completed. Instead, I have to wait until another villager wanders up and restarts the building work. After a little while I can then add builders as normal.

Anybody else noticed this? The construction of the third hut seems to go as usual.


Er, don't you mean a population of 13-14? And I've only noticed it once, but to get them building it at 13 you have to drop the builder significantly lower than where the hut is to be built to get him to build. Once the scaffolding goes up, things progress as normal.
