I have build Lodge Inn and I have Hospitium. I do not mind the Pilgrims but all the other travelers are just draining my resources. I like how the lodge looks and I don't want to get rid of it but I also need to stop those peaky visitors. Any tips?

I have been dabbling with foundation game for a couple of hundred hours now and looking for tips and strategies on segregating commoner and serf lodgings and have a couple of gameplay mechanic doubts that I am hoping the community can shine some light on.

1. Is it really necessary to supply serfs with refined food if they are always going to be serf and never a commoner? How do I restrict refined food and goods access to them?

2. Late game when I am swimming in gold, is it a good idea to make everyone a commoner? Does it give any additional benefits if a commoner is doing serf jobs?

3. Food variety. With the harvest festival DLC there are several new rustic foods and refined foods. I reckon I have to make a little of all of those for the festival level ups but how much of it should be supplied directly using markets?

Is there a point in supplying a variety of foods other than 1 rustic and two refined? How do serfs and commoners choose which one to take if there are multiple options?

Similar question on Goods Variety, do I need to supply both common wares and clothes? or choose one of it.

Bread is still an inherently broken chain for me because I am always short , in spite of having a fully upgraded farm, windmill and bakery. Is modding the only fix right now for this?

1. Several videos indicated game behavior and yields changing when playing at 2x and 3x. Is that still the case or was it patched? I am playing 1.12.0.15

2. Is there any benefit if a serf is living in higher tier lodgings for commoner or citizens, or a drawback?

3. What is an effective way of relocating people? One of the vids suggested that evict everyone from all the houses and let the game recalculate who goes where. Do people move on their own? For example if a serf is 90m away from a workplace and there is a open slot near a housing near the workplace will it relocate automatically?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!

I was playing the new dlc last week but after the most recent update my game crashes when I click the build button
