I don't think so. My reading of the notes is that he changed the behavior of laborers so they go more quickly to jobs far away than they did in 1.0.2. I haven't noticed any change in the "lunch box."

That's true, I see a few laborers get cold each winter it seems. They always seem to get back to their homes though before they freeze. *knock wood*

Remember that citizens can stop in to any house to get warm. In 1.0 and 1.0.1 that was often when a cold and hungry citizen would starve to death.

@rkelly17   I do keep forgetting about that change.  :-[   Thanks for the reminder!  It is a welcome change for me that they generally come back to town before they freeze! :D

They'll go to wood houses to warm up, too. The lunch box, I think, only applies to laborers or citizens doing laborer work at the moment. Other workers still go home to eat. It also only applies when the laborer's house is stocked with food, so if the house runs out the laborer has to head for the nearest market to stock up.

I never understood why they didn't just take some food home with them at the end of the day if they needed it. ;D

No kidding. In one map I played back in 1.0.1 I had a farmer who worked in a pumpkin field near the middle of the map. One Late Autumn day he carried some of his harvested pumpkin with him when he went to harvest stone in the Northwest of the map, got hungry (when I started following him because of the hunger icon), went home to eat, then deposited his stone in a nearby yard and carried his pumpkin back to the Northwest and deposited in a barn there before going back to his original field in the Spring. Go figure.
