Manor Lords: Npc Delivery Transportation Bug (Workarounds)

Short answer

No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: In my experience, this is how it works: The required building materials are delivered to the manor—for example, from a construction yard or a logging camp.

How to fix it

  1. Check the material count at the manor

    • Open the manor’s building window.
    • Look at the status line that shows the amount of each required material (e.g., “90/90 planks”).
    • If the numbers are not full, the workers are still waiting for the missing items.
  2. Make sure the source building is active

    • Verify that the construction yard, logging camp, or other source of the needed material is still built and functional.
    • If the source building has been destroyed or is offline, the materials will never reach the manor.
  3. Confirm there is a clear path to the manor

    • Even if you think the route is open, double‑check for any hidden obstacles such as terrain changes, temporary structures, or road gaps that might block the NPCs.
    • Adjust the road or clear the obstruction, then wait a few minutes for the delivery to resume.
  4. Wait for the delivery to finish before upgrading again

    • After the material count reaches the required amount, the actual construction on the walls will start automatically.
    • Do not issue another upgrade command until the current delivery is complete, as overlapping requests can stall the NPCs.
  5. Restart the game if deliveries stop completely

    • Save and exit to the main menu, then reload your save.
    • This often forces the NPCs to re‑evaluate their routes and resume transport.

If it still doesn't work

  • The bug may be deeper than the above steps can address; consider reporting the exact circumstances on the official forums.
  • Keep an eye on future patches; the developers have acknowledged the issue but have not released a definitive fix yet.
  • As a temporary measure, try building a new manor nearby and route the materials there, then manually transfer them if possible.

What players reported

ok this game has a bug with regards to building item transportation if you try to upgrade or build more walls at your manor your workers will not be able to delivery it to the destination even though there is no such path that blocks their way. hope the devs see my message :)

What players suggest

In my experience, this is how it works: The required building materials are delivered to the manor—for example, from a construction yard or a logging camp. Only once all the necessary materials have arrived there does the actual work on the walls begin. You can check the progress by clicking on the manor; the building window will show the status of the materials (e.g., 90/90 planks). The…
