Do workers only put in a percentage of work at the end of a turn if they used a movement point before starting?

Solution 1:

Conclusion

Workers do not work partial turns. A worker spends its remaining movement for the turn to do one turn of work.

First Test

Hunting camps take 6 turns to build.

Started construction on a hunting camp with an unmoved worker. The progress display said 5 turns remaining.

Started construction on a hunting camp with a worker that moved into the square via road. The progress display said 5 turns remaining.

Second Test

Roads take 3 turns to build.

  • First turn I moved a worker from plains to plains (1/2 move remaining) and clicked the build road button (2 turns remaining).
  • Second turn I moved that worker off and moved another one on (1/2 move remaining) and clicked the build road button (1 turn remaining).
  • Third turn I moved the second worker off and moved a third one on (1/2 move remaining) - when I clicked the build road button, the road completed.

This technique could be used to create a long road with workers that move every turn as long as they don't spend all of their movement to enter the tile.
