Mechanics not working?

[OftLost]

No matter what I do, the Mechanics won’t fix my broken Transformers. I keep losing power and have to delete the transformers and buy new ones. I have 2 workshops and make sure at least those are powered, just in case that effects the Mechanics ability to work? Any one have any ideas what I’m doing wrong or having the same problem? I’ve tried clicking “Call Staff”-“Call Mechanic” on every single broken transformer.

Havent had the issue.

Try telling them to fix, then watching whoever is assigned. They might be getting stuck somewhere. (happens even if you have good pathing)
If you find where they get stuck, redo the path.

Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it. Unfortunately I’m pretty sure the transformers are just totally glitched in my game. I even tried setting up the routine visits to every transformer (all in different areas of my zoo) to 3 months and it still says last visit- 3 years and then they break. So weird and frustrating. I’m in the career mode if that makes a difference? It’s a very irritating thing that every 10 or so minutes of gameplay I have to go delete all transformers and replace them.

Silly question but you do have a Staff Path going up to the correct side of the transformer so it can be accessed bye the mechanic???

One thing I got caught in beta was making sure the path to the generator is accessible. Too easy to put down the genny' without it being connected.

Get used to that feeling. I've had it like 12 times. I got annoyed because I couldnt figure out how to change humidity in the exhibits. My screen resolution made me need to scroll, and I didnt know you could, until a friend slapped me.
