guest leaving trough staff gate

[danny420]

just saw a train arrive in my coaster station. instead of poeple boarding and the next guests going to the airgates they went straight to the staff gate, stood there and despawned. im starting to wonder if guests even are riding my coasters when theres constantly random bugs like that popping up...
anyone else ever saw this happen on their coasters?

Maybe it's a result of no staff or staff exchange...

I noticed that if there's no staff at a coaster and I place an ordered staff member next to the queue entrance, it will disappear and appears at the control panel inside the station.
Behaviour in stations seems to be a difficult thing since PC1.

I can remember that they said something like it's difficult to get it right if a peep is/was/wasn't on a ride and deciding is a refund is required....
Maybe that's the reason for the unload/load behaviour in stations, too.

i know what you mean but no, that was not the case here in this situation. maybe its related to me running the game on 3x speed and then slowing down to normal and thats when i zoomed into the station of my coaster and saw the guests go trough the gate to the airgates, spawn at the staff gate and then despawn completely. could also be something that happens very very rarely but i just wanted to put it out here

They probably got teleported to the (park-)entrance afterwards, this is a confirmed bug, that guests get teleported to the entrance, when they dont want/can't ride a ride anymore (dynamic pricing does this reguarly) but switching the coaster ops / ride attendant switching tend to do this also.
