Hirelings
Hire villagers as your crew. Give them jobs, gear and homes, mark work areas, and watch them farm, mine, build, craft and trade. Run a company with wages, a bank, market stalls, guard dogs and rivals who can poach your best workers.

Theft & the Jail
- A hireling with the hidden Thief trait (10% chance) may steal:
theftsPerDay(0.3) on average, rolled 20 times a day, from a Lunchbox or Storage Chest withinstorageRange(6) blocks, or 25% of the time from a Bank ATM within 24 blocks (5 to 30 credits, unless a Town Guard within 16 blocks sees it). The owner withinproximityRange(16) with line of sight catches them; a nearby hireling who sees it reports it with chancecrewWitnessChance(0.35); a Town Guard always reports. - With a Jail area: press Arrest; the nearest Town Guard (others within 64 join) chases (a real thief may flee; tires after 90 seconds) and jails them. Search on the Board: stolen goods found prove it (they come back to you); nothing found clears them (a false accusation) unless a guard caught them at the ATM.
