My S.D.B.s seem to work on the following principle: I get materials for the building I've been working on, and I get those materials in order of most finished to least finished. Since many buildings come with a brick included, my S.D.B.s first go to bricks until the building I'm putting materials towards is finished with bricks. Then i get either boards or nails depending on which I've gotten the most of from my neighbor's wall posts. Since I am behind on my building, I dont't seem to get anything but construction materials. Even when I was working on my stable or apiary, I still got the most common materials (bricks, nails and boards) first, then smokers and honeycombs or harnesses and horseshoes only after those common materials were all gained. I think that is because the S.D.B.s go to whatever you are working on in the order from most complete to least complete. Does anyone else have a similar experience? Because I am most interested in completing my buildings, I don't put out any seedlings until I have the eight watering cans needed, and I never therefore get watering cans in my S.D.B.s. I do have an incomplete cellar, but I am not working on it and I don't get shovels from my S.D.B.s.  My experience is that if you focus all your building attention on one thing at a time, your S.D.B.s will co-operate.
