Are packers even worth it

[Generic-Raider]

they are slower than my self when packing and they dont seem to take weed/meth and jars from the shelves i have to do that for them even tho i have them set as routes

[Fudge]

they prioritize using the machine over their transport routes. Also my game was bugging out and they wouldn't grab items from certain shelves, got frustrated and gave up trying to fix it, fixed itself on reload.

Only NPC seeming to be worth a damn is the cleaner atm. Which is debatable anyway

[✦𝒱𝒶𝓅𝑜𝓇]

employees are only worth it when you reach economies of scale. sure, none of the npc's can do anything as well as you, BUT when you have manufacturing setups at 2-3 locations, there's no way to keep up with all the jobs without employees

Hauler take 10s per action, so it's always a bad idea to ask them to pack baggies. It's alright to ask them to pack jars, and great if they make bricks.

There is a bug with handlers. Sometimes they get stuck and saving and reloading has always fixed it for me.

Everyone seems to overproduce in my opinion. No sense having 90k worth of product sitting on shelves waiting.

i have a cleaner.... the workers are slow as hell. I wait till 4am when the clock basically stops and do everything myself. LOL

Oh absolutely worth it mate! Especially when you start really scaling up operations, and learn how to get them running smoothly.

[Nog]

Handlers are absolutely necessary if you are going to fully automate any kind of production. They don't usually bug out unless there is a pathing issue. Saving and reloading generally fixes it

[Braxen 🐟]

handlers suck, they don't even use the upgraded packing station speeds

Yea i have no ideal it wont get the weed or jars i still have to put it in the machine to make it work i restarted the game and sleeping i also fired and hired a new person still dose the same thing i seen my brother playing and has the same settings as mine but his worked i think my save is goofed or something
he has his bed and 1000$ in it

station is set to packing station mkII - only packing i have in the house
first destination is set to the shelf with only jars
the 2ed shelf full of bags
3ed weed shelf 1
4th weed shelf 2

he will take what he packed to the shelf with jars but that setting is in the station it self
