Gift Shop Staff

[MysticScribe]

Is anyone else having issues keeping their gift shops staffed? I have three checkouts, I set the staff limit to 5 so I have some that can restock while customers are getting checked out, and I've even unchecked other assistant jobs on specific staff so they should be focused only on the gift shop. However I end up with maybe one or two in the gift shop and the rest wandering around as 'available'. I pick them up and drop them in the gift shop and they might restock one thing before walking away and being 'available' again. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Are you using zone assignments and is everything assigned properly?

I have no issues with gift shop staffing. The only time there is a vacancy is when too many are on break at the same time. I do not use zone assignments for gift shops though, so I don't know if it does (or doesn't) work properly for that.

+1 just make them zoned and trying included gift shop in the zone.

I did use the zones but for some reason even with the gift shop in the zone only the unassigned worked there. So odd. But it seems to be working now!

I have had that same zoning bug happen in my game with marketing staff in one museum and camera room security in another. That's why I asked about zoning in my first reply. Zone assignment can, sometimes, be buggy and end up preventing staff from working in the zone rather than the expected behaviour of only working in the zone.
