When NPCs are free they will act like laborers and will help with resource movement and clear resources like trees, keep in mind that if an npc like your firewood cutter is free when you give an order to clear and a demand for firewood pops up after he has started helping the npc will continue to clear unless you either increase the firewood buildings priority or cancel the clearing order.

Nothing you do while paused affects the game until you unpause, so you can use this to plan out your entire citys structure by laying down structures, farmland and roads and then using the remove tool to remove the buildings while keeping the roadwork for later reference :D If you do this make sure to wait until your first Forest Cluster is finished or your npcs will build the roads instead of finishing the Cluster :( Personally i like having the general city statistics page and the worker management pages open. When you start a new map you are going to do two things right away, the first is pause the game so you can look around and plan out your city and where you are going to put your initial Cluster, the seond thing will be to activate the Cog wheel and put any information you like to see in the corners. *disasters, when they happen they happen, you will have to adapt, get sick a lot? build a hospital earlier then you usually would. *Expansion to new areas and when to do it. *Farming! Why don't i have this in now? farming is rather simple and most just need to know how to not die early on. *Dip into certain buildings with hidden mechanics not mentioned in the games FAQ *Handling old people and population control. *Efficient food management system which will let you survive until population is big enough to farm.
