Feedback on fruit & vegetables + general

[Gao]

Hi, I think it's good that fruit and vegetables are now included. As I'm sure others have written, it wasn't implemented very well. I can understand that they wanted to give the helpers one more task. But the fact that customers want to be served every time is not so good, it just creates long queues. If you also give the helpers money, they won't be any quicker at the scales. Simple solution, just like the self-service checkout, that someone needs help every now and then. Another suggestion: a slightly more expensive checkout that includes a scale. This also exists in reality and could also be implemented. Another suggestion would be to integrate the temporary staff into a level system, that would make it easier and you wouldn't have to run after them every time. I hope this was helpful and there will be more updates. Thank you. ^^

love having the fruit and veg added but as most people are saying the helpers are not working fast enough and can have over 40 people in the store saying "scale queue too long" and if you close your store at 9.00 pm it takes ages to clear the backlog and the helpers don't always want to work the scales after hours for some reason. I think the general amount of fruit and veg that every customer picks is way too much too up to 9 bags of different products. if the scales were customer operated would be better with the option to help when needed. Please look into this developers it would be great. also a couple more helpers too. but really love this update.

I've been counting how much produce each customer picks up and it's insane. Had one pick up 16 zucchinis and another pick up 19 carrots. It needs to be limited to a certain amount in the same way that all other produce is. Even boosted restockers can't keep up with the demand.

It doesn't make sense to me that customers can't weigh their own produce in the self-checkouts. If you want to keep the food scales, it would be immersive if you added some other produce items like bulk rice, trail mix or nuts.

I think cashiers should also be able to weigh fruits. That would create some incentive to have some cashiers rather than use only self-checkouts, which I think is the "meta" right now.

Finally, I really like Gao's idea of a employee leveling system. Employees could gradually become more efficient over time, however, their pay also increases with their level. So you have to balance paying them more over efficiency. New employees have different starting experience levels, each employee could improve at random rates and have random performance peaks.
As employees improve, the player can decide to replace under-performing employees.

I agree as well with the author of this post.

I have watched a customer grab 23 kiwi. There should be a limit on how much the take.
