I've had the game running for about 4 hours and all it is doing is training and nothing else. Even though I have other modes set, I am not sure why it only does 1 set mode.

It's because I disabled sleep on the first day on character creation and the first task is training. Normally, the character would sleep. Apparently, it is a problem that I link the in-game time to the local time of the PC.
I could remove sleep or add the ability to move the sleeping time. Actually, I would like to keep the sleep feature. Sleep is underrepresented in games.
