Clean up, bulk ordering, and suggestions

[Lenny Bones]

I'm wondering what exactly the clean up does? Is it literally just that they pick up boxes? Bc that's maybe the least useful job someone could have unless you just throw all your boxes on the ground.

I would much rather see employees be able to move inventory items from the floor to the shelf. We managed to figure out that we can open bulk orders inside the truck and the "unload" job will take care of that which is better than nothing. But if we take the bulk out of the truck, we have to 1.) Take it out with the fork lift ourselves, and 2.) We have to unload it ourselves. The "cleanup" should be able to help with that.

I think my other biggest thing is, it's SO hard to tell what people are complaining about when they talk about prices. Maybe a thought bubble or something could pop up when someone says that with an image of the item or something, idk. I'm exhausted from chasing people around to try to figure out what they're whining about lol

But this is such a great game. We had 1 big problem where our truck took off with our bulk order (it got pushed too far in,) and while I was trying to retrieve it, I was hit by a car which threw the forklift out of bounds and most of our order with it, but that's on me for trying to order in bulk during open hours lol

Edit: also, it would be smart if we could have the ability to designate shelves (either in storage or in the store) as being for inventory overflow. I would love to put the 2 cans of beans that don't fit on the bean shelf onto an overflow shelf without my employees trying to stock that shelf to full, yknow?

this is exactly, what the cleanup command does, pick up stuff from the ground and put it in designated storage slots, if available (if not, they ignore the box, until room opens up) and pick up empty trash boxes from ground and put in bin or compactor) also cleanup will also empty trucks, if not ordering in bulk.

That's right. I put my people on clean up when the truck comes. I pick the stock and toss it inside on the floor. My staff will scurry and collect it and place it on the right shelf.

If I slide it half way down the aisle it helps them do it quicker. Staff on clean up can also choose to pick the stock from the truck when it arrives.
