Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. Admittedly I don't lock tasks much when I play, however it was a feature I wanted to explore while developing. I think if there were more Orders with larger quantities (maybe a massive weekly order), it might incentivize players to dedicate a few robots to the tasks. I can imagine a few other ways it could be useful, but the game as it is right now doesn't really justify it.
I'd have to look into that bug because that is definitely janky.
