npc issues

[Xero Glitches]

Anyone else having issues with npc workers getting stuck and not moving and just standing in front of pots ?

yeah, seemed for me that having tents in the middle of rooms blocked them. I moved the tents to the edge of the rooms and they could path properly... then they got stuck on the outside bin

same im not sure how to fix it other then reloading

Just have one of each worker per business right now, that way they dont seem to get stuck.

my botanist refuses to work with six pots when he can handle 8 so idk.

I had this happen, randomly moved a trash can that was no where near him and he started working again.

Pathfinding is awful. Also some issues with counters not stopping at 4am, so NPC wil get stucked at this task. E.g. drying racks setted to purple star output, if you continue after 4am ot botanist has another tasks, it goes straight up to gold, then it missmatches the output and he stays for ever with his animation. You have to manually set the rack to gold and back to purple, or unlink the worker and do a save->quit for him working again. I'm plenty of workarounds, that means there are lots of bugs.

Untrue, didn't work.

You need to be mindful of the pathing for them. I found the NPCs can walk through a 1 wide square where players need 2 wide. Despite this, NPCs seem to only reach about 3 blocks and can reach through walls. Just make sure you can reach everything and your NPCs will be able to reach. If they are not moving, they are likely stuck on something.

They get stuck even with enough space sometimes and sometimes they just walk impossible paths, through everything without problems...
