Keeping Entertainers Busy?

[Whooda]

Is there a good way to keep the entertainers busy so they don't get bored and quit? Having them just free roam doesn't seem to be any good.

Iv noticed this too since the last update.

That the Entertainers are just wandering around not really engaging the guests anymore.

What i mean is they used to stop and do animations and any guests who were next to them would stop and look at them. I think it raised guests happiness? (I could be wrong)

But now they only rarely draw guests in.

I usually set up a few entertainment points (EPs) in the busiest areas of my park. I'll make special "entertainer-only" work rosters and select 2 or 3 EPs per roster. This way entertainers can stay where the crowds are as they walk around from EP to EP. After all, entertainers can't do their job if there's no one around to entertain.

I haven't really noticed entertainer behavior since the new update. I haven't had any noticeable issues with or complaints from them.

Even with the entertainment points set up, even in the middle of my most packed spot, they aren't entertaining people. When I look at it's stats, it tells me they have entertained 0 people last month, every month.

Same problem.

I did some poking around the official forum on Frontier's site, apparently it's a bug and they are already aware of it. So for now, until they fix it, entertainers are totally pointless

Weird. I'll have to check when I play later today to see if my entertainers are doing their jobs. Again, I rarely look to see if entertainers are actually entertaining and probably wouldn't have noticed had this not been brought up.

Oh. Well there you go. I still wouldn't have ever noticed...

I was wondering why my entertainers worked a week ago but this week literally weren't, well, working anymore. Guess they all get canned for now.

I'm surprised more users haven't noticed this yet.

Right? I honestly only noticed it because they always showed "low" on workload, and decided to follow one around for a little bit. It *looks* like they're working but they aren't actually doing anything.
