This hotfix addresses immediate issues and includes minor changes.
After this update, you should find employees much more efficient in how they use the tray, as they will now batch orders more cleanly. Instead of all racing to grab orders as fast as possible, one employee will claim a chunk before the next one does.
Additionally, employees should be better at actually washing dishes. Washing dishes has also been separated out into its own task group. If you previously disabled cleaning for an employee, this will automatically be disabled for that specific employee.
Update 1.3.1 Patch Notes
- Added the ability to set a shelf to "NOTHING". This will stop employees from putting items on it.
- Coffee/food items that have been assigned to a customer will now display their table number if available.
- Solved an issue that would stop you from being able to bulk add items into holders from the tray
- Stop employees from going to a location, then returning to grab a tray rather than just grabbing the tray in the first place. Should speed up waiters a lot in large cafes
- Improve employees so they can actually restock syrup holders and ice cream freezers. Ice cream freezers will default to one type per slot; syrup holders will be based on the syrup last placed in them.
- Improve the way the employee task manager works so they are more likely to perform certain tasks
- Improve the way the employee task scheduler works so it batches together certain tasks when using the tray.
- Improve the way employees schedule dish washing. Expanded it into its own task group so you can better task it and dedicate staff to washing.
- Improve milk jug handling when you happen to pour milk into a jug that an employee was using.
- Don't promote vending machine customers to normal cafe customers. This doesn't affect actual flow rate but stops customers with drinks already in their hand from ending up in the cafe.
- Improve the placement of some items, such as pastries, onto the new grid snap surfaces.
- Solved an issue that caused the number of takeout orders icon to disappear.
