I can't figure out the controls at all, I keep trying everything but the little guys won't move
select is either click or click and drag to create a selection box. Right click assigns any person to any task. Some tasks like gathering you right click on the grass. Some tasks you right click on the buildings. It goes select unit > select target. Then you can click anywhere else to deselect the unit. A unit will have a yellow line on the ground when selected when they have succesfully found a path to their next task.
