Restockers - Ideas to speed them up

[Mac]

Though i love the restockers (they are amazing at not making this game frustrating to play, holding the sprint button down back and forth was triggering my motion sickness lol) and having 4 of them is bliss - BUT - i gotta tell ya, even with 7 sections, yes, only 7, the 4 hired help takes SO LONG to restock the shelves after 9pm!

9pm ticks, and it takes what feels like an eternity to restock before the next day, doing this is needed so you know what items to buy at the start of the next day, just randomly guessing is just a silly way to play, you can do it, but hell no, not for me.

My ideas for Restockers to help them feel less crappy when it ticks to 9pm are as follows;

1) - They have a small dolly holder they gain on their backs, this adds 1 extra carry slot allowing them to take 2 boxes out at a time, the one on the back must be a different item to what they are carrying, to prevent them from grabbing the same item twice.

(For balancing reasons, i don't think this should be active whilst the store is open - This also incentives the players to manually press the open to close button, upon the store being closed they gain this dolly backpack - at the moment, when it ticks 9pm, i completely ignore closing the store as its pointless, but, if they gain a backpack for +1 carry for me manually closing the store, hell yeah im gonna close the store when it ticks 9pm)

2) - When 9pm ticks, a new option appears on screen, in much the same way "press enter to finish the day" appears that simply says: "Press *Binded key here* to speed up restockers - This will speed up the game by, lets say, 4x speed and turns off when all hired help has returned to their idle positions.

Outside of that, the obvious force them to idle feature is a must, to prevent them from moving whilst you're trying to reorganise your store lol
