Workers Stealing?

[Ali]

Are Handlers still cleaning out racks and not doing anything with them? and are Chemists still stealing product off of Mixing stations? or did all of that get fixed?

[Abigail Lemonparty]

It's just started happening to me.

[Wisadr]

The same is happening to me, waiting for it to be fixed

[desden42]

exactly the same problem with me

[Yurii]

have you used that station by yourself after assigning worker for it?

i have experienced similar problem after i have used machine that was assigned to worker.
the only thing that helped was removing machine and destination shelf from the floor.
after placing machine and shelf back + re-adding actions it was fixed.

just re-adding actions for worker did not help.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

Just kidding - but seriously, I think it would make sense for workers to steal product. We should have friendliness meters with our employees so you want to keep it high to avoid them stealing product. Or if you don't pay them regularly enough, or something along those lines.

Just started for me as well, It was fine before. I was able to use it myself as well. Now they just take what is on the shelf then go back outside.

as i say above, reposition furniture and do not use machines by yourself after you assigned workers there. if you need machine, setup another machine just for yourself.
it works for me.

I just did all that and they still take everything off the shelf and go back outside.

I've noticed this fixes it most of the time. The odd time it doesn't i just take the money out the case, pick up the bed, sack and rehire. Pain because it cost money, but no problem mid/late game because you should have plenty of cash and that's what you pay to hire.

That's the next step unfortunately. I'll update if it works for me.

Update: It's fixed the problem so far.

recently i got situation when worker just does not move or stuck in one place.
replacing machine does not help.

so far game restart fixes the issue always, and sometimes i can fix it by punching worker in the face ~3 times.. this is hilarious, but punch to the face works :)

i think the issue is in path finding, when you block worker retreat path to default position in front of the house OR when 2 workers simultaneously try to lock machine, creating some race condition. Technically you can create that by delaying ingredients of shelf etc.

Same problem, workers steal everything. The packager just makes it disappear. Their hands are empty once the job is finished...

Same... so there is no current fix yet?
