I don't know a single person who does it manually.

Nurgling has bot for it and it's publicly available.

Anything that you do in this game manually, means you are doing it wrong. The game is intended to play with bots for every chore mechanic.

We do it manually.

I agree the 6 hours timer is annoying. But haven is a game that rewards cooperation, so it's not really an issue if you play in a village. We just all help out refueling it when the smith is not online.

I violently disagree with this statement, although to the OP - yeah they kinda dropped the ball with timings on high-end production like steel and silk while they were tweaking server speed for 16.1 willy-nilly.

Death to bots. Shame to bot users. *raises fist*

Only mandatory bot is orca/whale hunting.

Everything else can easily be done manually by any village.
Saying other bots are mandatory is just making up excuses for your villagers being unable or unwilling to do easy tasks like smelting ores or farming crops.

Nothing is Mandatory.

But it depends on your definition and experience of "easy"

there is a certain Moderator who would disagree with you about not having bots for his massive farms and herds.
