<t>Aha, someone kick me. I'm at work right now so I can't check, but Madmax's comment about an option being turned off is probably correct. I had turned off all of the auto-whatever options and set that to the default setting because I wanted to learn how the game mechanics worked before automating ...

<t>Hey all,<br/>
