You should always shift click a drop site when u resing a vil to onother task. Every single resource, espesially very early in the game counts.

I always thought you retained the resource, but it limits your total gatherability for the new resource, prior to the first drop-off. Ever noticed that when you change a villie from gold to wood, he will be carrying the gold until he starts chopping? I was always under the impression that this is what causes resource numbers that are not divisible by 5 (cuz all units, buildings and techs, other than for favor, require resources that are divisbile by 5). Just my $.02.

not a nobbish question at all. I wasn't sure what happened but I figured it wasn't good. Didn't know about the shift - I will try that. I would just wait until they were on there way back to gathering point before I would switch. I build many graneries and storehouses so my villies are usually close to my drop off point.
