Auto drinking seems to be quite funky.
Was taking it as inconvinience, but jorb and loftar complain that people don't report bugs..
There are many scenarios where action is not continued automatically after auto-drinking had to happen.
Example:
Plowing the field.
Current actions steps
1. Drink
2. Start plowing
3. Character stops with low stamina. No drinking started.
4. Start plowing again. stamina check seems to be triggered, drinking starts.
5. Start plowing again.
This is not the only action with this scenario, but i'm not sure if this is an actual bug, or deliberate functionality.
List of other processes where auto-drinking is N/A or bugged: (in progress)
+ using wrecking ball. No auto-drinking at all.
+ crafting cloth on with the loom
+ digging with hands
