  • Now, i own a café and noticed a few behaviors that could be improved.When food is displayed on the counter, Zois stop to look at the products and consider buying them, which works well. However, when I use the new “Encourage to Buy” interaction, the character successfully promotes the products, but the Zois seem confused afterward and wander around for a while before eventually coming to me to pay.Another issue is that when a Zoi decides to purchase something from the display counter, they take all of the desserts on display instead of selecting and purchasing just one item. This appears to be a bug and causes the entire display to be emptied by a single customer.I really like the new sales encouragement mechanic, but I think it would be even better if employees could perform this action as well. Currently, I only found the new clothing sales-related role, but I could not find an equivalent role for café employees or other retail businesses to actively promote products to customers.I have also noticed that employees continue performing tasks that are not assigned to them. For example, an employee assigned only to making desserts will still prepare coffee. It would be great if employees followed their assigned responsibilities more strictly.Another suggestion is to allow Zois to pay at a cash register. To support this, there should also be a dedicated employee role for operating the register and serving customers. This would make running a café feel more realistic and organized.

I have the same issue regarding the stock of backed goods. There is just no keeping up anymore. I posted the bug as well, because it ruins the whole café/bakery. I hope they’ll fix it because it just isn’t fun like this. It takes three people to clear out my whole stock​:sob::sob:

sorry i posted incorrectly before.

@KenethG this issue from the OP is similar to this thread After the update, people buy too many items at once in my bakery and not all payment is received

Thanks

I agree with this post. The Zois don’t really buy anything, it takes so long for them to purchase something or they just wander around the cafe.
