I built an app to plan layouts and employee routes

[RobertMoses]

Hey Everyone -

I know the online layout planner has been done before, but I just finished my own version that I've been working on for myself and thought I'd share.

Not only can you plan your layouts with intuitive controls to multi select equipment, rotate items, and bulk assign outputs. You can also actually hire employees, assign their stations and plan their routes (not something I've seen done before on similar websites).

All properties (except for the motel) are available, and you can save up to 3 layouts per property. To share, just copy the link and send it to your friends.

The site calculates upfront/daily cost and I'm working on implementing a daily profit calculation. Using the mechanics from the game it can calculate the speed that certain plants grow, time it takes for employees to process product, and therefore estimate daily profit.

I found it super helpful for bigger builds, and making sure I didn't waste money hiring/firing underutilized employees. I'm sure it's not perfect so if you see anything wrong or have any ideas let me know! Thanks for checking it out!

Ok also want to report another bug. Im setting up a barn layout and have a few workflows setup. When the workflow option is turned on, cpu activity spikes a good 10% when its running. The more workflows i have setup, the higher the spike in activity. im running this off brave browser's latest version using a ryzen 7 3700x

Has to be due to the animated arrows. I can turn those off thank you.

Now that we have safes, you might want to update this. I use safes alot now as it fits better into my designs .. but I would love to streamline it more and this page seem perfect for it. So much better than the other one mate

With the Barn layout the gap between the back of the stairs and the pillar is only a 2 block space not 3, figured this one out the hard way
