Interactive careers

I’m not sure if it is planned already, or already implemented as it been a while since I last worked in-game but could careers become interactive?

For example, the surf shop employee at Posey’s Surf Shop:

  • Functional cash registers animations so Zoi’s actually come checkout, some nice sounds when tapping the registers, card terminals confirmations beeps etc.
  • Shopping Zoi’s deplete the stock so actual restocking is needed
  • If not to resource heavy, Zoi customers show a question mark bubble when they need assistance with finding products or having general questions
  • If not to resource heavy, delivery trucks bringing in new stock that needs to be moved to the stock room

In my opinion, that would greatly increase the liveliness of working in-game as, in my opinion, currently nothing really happens in the surf shop employee role: sitting for 4 hours, twice, shoppers just sitting down etc… It’s very tedious when running the simulation on 96 minutes.

Haven’t worked any other in-game jobs, but I’m sure it would increase the overall experience.

Let me know your opinions, too :slight_smile:

Take care

Definetly needs more interactive Jobs in general I think the surf shop and the amusement park thing are pretty boring

I added the register to our PC Café (on a residential lot) and Sai was able to use it.
Though, there was no cash flowing.
But it’s a fun addition, he can (pretend to) work there.
Repair the broken computers, clean up the empty packages and mop the floor, cook ramyeon for the ‘guests’, ‘serve’ drinks… it’s more fun than the actual career :wink:
