Bug report: I don't know if this is already known but some times my ai ants don't drop the food their holding even thou they are in the range of the token. If it would help I could try and redo and try and make it happen again to get more info.
Thanks for this. These "traffic jams" used to be a lot more common, but I made it so ants could put something down even when another ant is there, and it just pushes the ant out of the way (including the queen). I thought this change would have fixed it so I'll need to play around more to reproduce your issue.
As an in-game workaround, you can use Alert pheromone to make them drop everything to kind of reset their task.
Thanks for looking more into it. Yeah ants carrying food will switch to feeding larva if there are new larva that need to be fed. The example you sent in these screenshots seems like it might be a different issue... or I didn't properly understand the original issue.
I wonder if the next time you run into this, you can pause, then open the console and enter:
JSON.stringify(store.getState().game)
which will dump the game state into a giant string that you could share with me via like pastebin.com or something I can try to mess around with it? I've never actually transferred the game state that way but it just miiight work haha
