I hate it when devs fight players (let us close the first door after buying lot b or undo the patch that stops us from blocking the first door)

So, as cool as the deodorant mechanic is for the first few hours, its gets annoying.

The auto deodorizers should actually deodorize customers, but they dont, they only half do it.

So I had a big brain moment. Get the second lot, block off the first door with metal racks facing inward. The second door can fit a deodorizer on either side of the door, getting a 100% deodorizing effect.

Also, I like the pathing, use the second lot as a hall for play tables and displays, and customers path through there into the main store.

I'm loving it, I'm having a good time.

Wake up today, a patch just went through, I boot up, open shop, Im restocking, and a stinker walks past me. How? I solved this problem!

I go to the main door, and there are 20 customers who all took stuff off the back side of the shelves blocking the door pathing back and forth in the 2 step space they can fit in, and a stinker in the pack clipped through the shelving to get into the store. They also have new dialogue "Help!", "The entrance is blocked!" "I cant get in the store!".

This wasnt a problem yesterday, the customers seemed to know to path to the other open door yesterday.

Why would the devs make the conscious choice to prevent players from solving issues to make the game more enjoyable and less annoying to play, making the game glitchier in the process?

Bonehead move devs.

Even better, I just went back to see if I can figure out a way to shore up my front door barricade again and people are grabbing cards out of my store through the front window. 0 customers are willing to use the second door that is open and clear with the sign set to tell the customers to use it as an entrance.

If they revert this, I'll be back. If not, I'm done.

you can put 2 deodorizing machines at the first entrance too, easy.

There is no configuration that has a 100% success rate because customers can path to a hard left and dodge them.

Also, I just like the flow using the other door.

Why make the other door usable and then drop a patch that makes it pointless and adds glitches to the game?

Too long, didn't read.

Cool story bro.

I dont want customers coming in that door.

Also, they can pull a hard left and evade the deodorizer on the right.

[N0P3]

mh maybe your safe is buggy if they can evade the deodorizer on the right, since the 10h of rt gameplay I hadn't had a single customer evading mine 2. Only way someone might slip through is if the deodorizer is on cooldown because 2sec before someone already got sprayed.

I don't have the shoppers even go in lot b, as that's my store room. So they pass by my sprayers, which both hit easily.

That's a smart idea hah. I just got mine next to each other right next to the door.

No they can't- it is sitting at door jam "Bro"

[Kito Ballard]

If anything, just upgrade to the bigger sprayers. They cover more "tiles" and can even hit stinkies through walls.

idk man, its pretty obvious it can work on the first door, and isnt this game made by like one guy?

Exactly- but OP would rather "cry" instead of finding solutions and then blame others for his lack of critical thinking. One thing I learned in my 15 years in the military- Adapt and overcome- use a little critical thinking and you can make anything work to your advantage.

[Chadillac]

This dude acts like the single game dev changed his game just for the sole purpose of trolling the OP

Well we will all miss you BuckFunky, you're over the top opposition to literally everyone was such a blessing to these forums.
