Been playing this game for going on five years now with various characters, and I have never been able to properly wrap my head around the inoccuous box in the account settings that asks if you want to turn on/off "Auto-NPC Gather." What is it, what does it mean, what does it do, has it any significance at all, why is it nowhere mentioned in the rules, why is it under Account Settings, has anybody else been as baffled as I, et cetera?
That setting is for gathering building NPCs. If it is turned off they will stay where they are after they are done working if it is on then they return to 0,0 of the city to be gathered up
