Residents only produce items from jobs when you are in the base?

Is this correct? Ive seen a mod reference this before, and this seems to be the case. I have multiple residents with the hunting job and all of them produce corpses at 180+%...so i should be getting dozens of corpses per month, but this is obviously not the case. I also have a fisher with fishing as the job + hobby at 300%...so i should be getting 6 fishes a day (or 180 fishes a month), but this is obviously not the case.

If items arent produced if you arent in the base, that would explain why im not getting as many items from their jobs as the numbers would suggest...every time i go on a long trip, they dont produce anything.
