I found a new bug and this time it is to do with harvesting - no it is not causing the game to crash, so it's not a gold mine issue.

It is along the lines of path finding -> I tell a peasent to harvest lumber/gold, he does so willingly, then once he is done, he heads to the depot, but sometimes he will stop outside the depot, and not go in - even when he's right next to it! It's like he can't find the depot, and a few seconds later he'll automatically drop his lumber/gold and stand there waiting for the player to give him an order.

Other times he will drop off the lumber/gold at the depot, and DOES head back out to harvest. He gets to the gold mine ok, but when it comes to harvesting lumber, he heads to where the trees are, but stops just shy, as if he knows there are trees, but he could've swarn last time they were closer. Not knowing where to head to find trees again (when there's a row of them in front of him), he just stands around again, waiting to be told where to get lumber from.

Almost everytime a peasent has come out of the depot and stopped near some trees he was harvesting before, I have to manually instruct him to *harvest this bunch of trees* or *that bunch there*, 70% of the time I have to issue the order, and this didn't happen in release 8139, they definetly were able to find the trees by themselves.

So that's the latest bug.
