Employees continue crafting items when all display cases are full and then steal the crafted items

[EllaEstella]

• Game Version: latest

• Platform: (Steam windows)

• Mods: none

• Hardware Specifications & Operating System (OS version, CPU, GPU, RAM, storage…):

• Steps to Reproduce: Employees continue crafting items in the shop even if all slots are full. Then they try to place it, wander around as they find no place to display the item. And then they put it in their bag (I assume) and the item basically vanishes. The employees are wasting the money of the shop owner this way.

• Please provide the entire save file(s) from the date when the issue occurred.

• Details:
  As described above. My Zoi is running a sculpture shop. Once all display cases are filled the employees continue to craft sculptures and run into the room with the display cases to try to place them:

• 

• As they find no empty slot they wander around and go back to the crafting table with the sculpture:

• 

• Then they stand around for a moment and then the sculpture vanishes. The animation looks like they would put the sculpture in their bag, so basically steal the item:

• 

• And then they just start the next sculpture even though still everything is filled and repeat the same all over again:

• 

• This is a waste of money for my shop. Employees should be able to notice that there is no free spot available and not craft additional items during that time. And if they do, they should not steal those but place them somewhere in the shop where the owner can rearrange these as soon as there are free slots available.

• I hope the save file is usable that way. Unfortunately it was too big to upload here with the entire folder.

I have the same issue with coffee/drinks my employee makes.

The displays weren’t full, but he had a routing issue or something similar to that, since he just stopped at the diaplay without putting the beverage down. Then, instead of trying again, the drink just vanishes.

I can’t say if he put it into his pocket though. It just dematerializes into nothingness and then he makes a new coffee. And of course that employee keeps lightening my pockets along the way since he burns my money like it’s nothing

@Minthyuyu good to know, so the same with food items then And for those we have also the other bug for money burning where they simply put the new items over the old ones…

All these business bugs really should finally get fixed…

[Minthyuyu]

Yes… I just have no fun playing businesses anymore with all those bugs. I personally, when I play my business, I roll back to the older version to play it and hope for fixes…

I have the same issue with a cafe. And if I cancel the action to bake something, they sometimes drop the ingredients in a trash bin. I would like to be able to put them in the bag to continue later. Either way its wasted money
