Staff Question

I read somewhere that the recent patch was to fix staff getting stuck on paths altered while they were in buildings.
I didn't have the problem before the patch but now I'm having so many problems I spend most of my time manually moving them before they quit the park due to boredom.

Anyone else having this problem?

I tried changing all the staff, relaying new paths and moving the staff rooms but the problem persists and only since this last patch.

Thanks for any replies.

Hey Johnny, I haven't checked my old saves, but upon start of a new scenario/park I do not have any issues as I noticed yesterday evening.

No, still having the problem, deleted the paths and rebuilt, deleted staff and rebuilt and still my staff leave due to getting stuck. The irony is they are able to move when they quite. I guess it's gonna be a bug report.

If so, did you find a work around as this game is pretty much unplayable for me at the moment?

It was a bug with me before the update. Removed any path blocking objects (benches, barriers) in the vincinity of the trash bins, so it would avoid them getting stuck. However you seem to have a different issue here.

are it only the Janitors, or all staff?

Can you share a picture of one being stuck?

I've done that, relaid all the path and set on new staff. The sticking points are fairly random too. Last time I tried to post an image it wouldn't let me but I'll try again later.

EDIT; Yeah it just keeps telling upload failed so I can't post a pic.
I can describe what happens though. Vendor jumps out of shop and then just stands there. Gets bored and tired due to hanging about and then leaves. Janitors get stuck in random places, not as common as vendors but still annoying. Mechanics are less regular but they are random places too.

I constantly have this problem. I find I always have staff heading to shops and then they refuse to move any further, or they get trapped after leaving the shop for no apparent reason. I find I constantly have to replace shops completely just to get the staff walking along paths. I don't know if this has affected anyone else, but my staff also sometimes struggle with exterior paths too.

Use imgur for sharing pics. it's easier.

But I can imagine what the problem is.

Does it also happen with new parks?

I'm not sure, I stopped building since this happened. The problem doesn't seem so severs in Sandbox. I was editing a scenario when it all started, just after the last update.

No issues for me and I’m a scenario player.

Is there nothing at all in common with the sticking points? Ground texture, custom path, a stray bush etc?

No nothing, been underground and checked from below. I have solved it in a way but I'm not sure why it happened in the first place. I removed all the shops from the centre of the park and placed them in other area. For now it seems to have worked. Thanks for your help all.
