I'm too stupid to use employees

[overgross]

I wish there was a more simple way to use employees lolol. I cant wrap my head around getting a successful 4 step product made. Farthest I got was i managed to have my chemist cook the meth and put it on a mixing table. Hoping for aN easier to learn system in the future.

Get familiar with your handlers, they have the facility to do 5 different routes.

Once you have your meth on the mixing station, a handler needs to put your first mixing ingredient on that station from a pre-stocked shelf.

The chemist working on that station then moves the mix over to the next mixing station which is fed directly from the previous station. A handler with another route (can be the same handler) then fill that station with the 2nd mixing ingredient taking from a different pre-stocked shelf.

The you just rinse & repeat the process with your remaining mixing stations.

1 chemist can handle all 4 of your mixing stations & 1 handler can stock each of those stations as long as they have 4 roues free for it.

Ensure you have 4 shelves, (1 for each mixing station) & stock each one to the brim with 1 mixing ingredient each to supply your 4 mixing stations with.

The last mixing station needs to feed a storage shelf from where a handler can pack the end product.

I have had ENDLESS problems with the chemists specifically.

Set up too many mixers too close together they quit working.

Call in a delivery van too close to where they idle they quit working (ESPECIALLY the barn).

Have the mixers set to output to another mixer that's too far away, they quit again, sometimes they quit even if the next mixer is right next to them.

It has been far and away the most miserable part of this game.

To be honest I've not done much with mixing in the game. I tried it out once in one of my now deleted games just to get a feel of it so just know how it works (when it works).

Hardly bothering much with chemists either unless making some meth.

Only use them once for making cocaine.

My go to is OG Kush as it's quick & easy, can take you right through to end game & beyond & you start out with it too.

Yeah the chemists confuse me. They will only mix if the mixer is stocked, but the chemist doesn't restock the mixer when it runs out. I've been refilling the mixer by hand, which is annoying and unfun. Didn't realize I was suppose to use a handler to restock things.

I just don't use employees, I like doing it all myself

How do you branch out into multiple neighborhoods at that point though? I'm trying to branch out into the second neighborhood, but I have my hands full with the first one.

I still use dealers, if that's what you mean. I'm harvesting 30 weed plants twice a day, and I make a ♥♥♥♥ load of meth at 4am when time freezes. I should be making and selling coke but I just don't feel like it

lots of good guides on YouTube. The one I went with is called "Schedule 1 Advanced Automation Guide. FULLY AUTOMATED 8 STEP MIXES Complete Guide and Setup" by Ape Knight.

Not bright enough to look at the guides section or youtube either it seems.
