Why no stock?

[Kathrin]

Hi all! Can someone help my understand what have I done wrong?
I have a fast food restaurant with two french fries friers. Even though at my warehouse I have stock of french fries around 2500 and my fast food restaurant is my drivers first destination with minimum stock of french fries 500, no french fries delivered tonight and I am out of french fries for the day.
What is going on? Have I done something wrong or is my driver sleeping on the job?

Most common issue here is either you already had 500 total fries at the store still (including what's in the fryers and on the shelves), or you didn't have enough storage shelves to hold all the inventory you're trying to deliver, so the fries couldn't be delivered.

Also, keep in mind the deliveries only happen once at midnight, so if you run out through the day, they won't refill until midnight.

Same bug/Problem here. I have 1000 Cheap Flowers in the warehouse, and my flowershop goes out of stock. The Flowershop is correctly set up and connected in the Logistic-Manager . The Shelves in the warehouse and in the flowershop are not full. Driver is set, Targets are set. anything looks OK.

EDIT: Hmmm, the shelve in the flowershop is after a game-reload now full. A new empty shelve solve the problem.

I have no stock of french fries at the store, not even one fry!!!
I let the game pass one more day and nothing is being delivered to any of my stores. All my stores are out of stock. My warehouse is full of stuff. The logistic system and drivers are porperly set up but no deliveries!!! Oh boy... Now my fast foor restaurant has nothing, not even one burger!!!

MY suggestion would be for you to get more shelf for your warehouse, order 3x more than you need to your warehouse every 7 days(will probably order itself every 14), and use the logistics agent to sent to your stores, but increase the amount by 15%.

This way you will have more stock on your warehouse, but will send enough to your stores.

If you both send an F2 bug report right now, I'll take a look at them and check them out. Sometimes (if you've been playing for a while), a simple save/reload can help reset some things if they start acting weird, as well.

Sometimes things get a little off with the UI after a longer playthrough. Glad to save/reload helped you, and hopefully it's all working now!

I sent a bug report. Later I reloaded a previous save just like Swapps did and everything was delivered! Also when I had the issue when the day ends the game did not stop time to show me the income I had at that day in a little box.

Okay good - glad it's working now, at least, and thanks for the report! It sounds like your games just used up all the memory for the UI and stopped updating things until you reloaded. Hopefully yours is working now too (the end of day issue is often the same thing with needing to reload and it's fixed).

Be sure to let us know if you have any further issues, though!

It is working fine now. I know what to do next time this happens until the game is complete. Thanks!

If you don't satisfy their demands, they will resign after their satisfaction drops. Office people might demand things like a a clean office, a couch, a fridge, coffee, or "peaceful work environment" (which means your character needs to be at 50% happiness)

okay thank you. It was the not-so peaceful work environment that did it. under 50%. Thanks again.
