Staff can't find accessible staff building

Hi there zoo-lovers,

I have a bit of a problem. I keep getting notifications about my staff can't find accessible staff building, (see first image below) but I cant find the reason why.
I have a lot of staff building (see second image below) they all have electrically, a path that goes to it and they are close by.
If you look at the seond image then you see that the staff building is hardly used. I'm tired to place more staff buildings because people are complain about it.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? :)

Good Morning,
that's probably a bug many have it.

I know of several reasons for this message:
If the employee goes into the break room and then the message disappears, it is the bug.

When the staff room is full. Some employees are also stuck.

Then you have to move them manually.

Sometimes the route is interrupted.

I have no other reasons so far.

Now that I don't know how far the staff rooms are. People don't like to walk far.
I myself make sure that the break rooms are not too far away from the workplaces.
 
Do you use workzones for your staff? If so, make sure they have a staff room in their workzone. Other than that, if they aren't stuck and are able to reach the room, just ignore the message, it should disappear as soon as they reach the facility. It happens from time to time. In my case, often when I place paths or edit existing ones.
 
The notifications was gone for a moment... But then I get it again.
I think I know what the problem is. The staff that are complaining is just standing close to the staff building. (see image below)
Some are walking, without going any further. ( I think they are stuck?) The staff building is empty. But I know they can enter de building, because other staff can.
The staff that are stuck, I replace them. But then they come back and are stuck again.
Is this a bug? Is there something I can do about it? :(

It's not a real bug. It starts to happen when the game is no longer capable of computing the whole bunch of path finding for guests and staff at one time. Thus, you often see the alerts popping up when you just load a save or rerun the game after a longer pause.
As long as you are sure that you have enough staff rooms (best is in assigned workzones) just ignore the alerts for now when they will vanish after 20-30 secs.
