Summary0006081: Some wagons are incredibly fast, others incredibly slow
DescriptionTraders have arrived! Within a couple seconds, one wagon zooms into sight, whips around a corner and vanishes into my trade depot faster than [insert fast metaphor here]. Soon after, the various mules and traders arrive... but I still can't trade at the trade depot. Time passes... the traders are about to leave! But they're still "unpacking" because something hasn't made it to the depot yet? Coming around the corner are... two more wagons, moving very very slowly. I don't know if they'll make it in before their buddies give up on trading and leave.

No mods. Various handy utilities but I don't think those would affect this? I do have a save handy in which the super wagon has arrived and slow wagons don't look like they're going to make it in before the traders leave. Frustrating but whatever, it's not like I need their stupid boxes of leather anyway.

One of the wagons moved at about one tile per frame once it got near my depot. The other one still hasn't made it to the depot even though it's partially overlapping it.

No mods, no utilities. I did change the entity raws to allow more sites/population per civ, though.

The first year, the caravan didn't finish unpacking until they decided they wanted to leave, and then they didn't leave until my queen threw a tantrum and demolished the depot. This is the second year.

They have not brought an outpost liaison with them either time.

I had one instance where the wagon was so slow that I barely had time to trade before they left again. The last wagon moved in, I traded, and hardly 10 frames later they 'embarked on their journey'.
