Title: Why does the ZT2 Staff Sit Down?
Post by: Natureboy28 on February 05, 2009, 07:35:17 PM

i don't know this but wh do they sit down on the bench. They're supposed to be for the guests. Can you prevent them from using them? Could you organize a resting area besides a staff center? :))

I seem to remember that in the introduction to zt2, we are told that the keepers will sit down when there are no tasks for them to do. I suppose I wouldn't want to be on my feet all day if there wasn't anything I had to do!  :))

But I don't think the keepers would sit down if it meant that guests had nowhere to sit. As for programming this behaviour out of the keepers, it may be possible, but I doubt it.

Lock them in.(by putting no staff gate.)

And if you want them to go to other Exhibits put a staff gate going to the next exhibit

I must admit, I usually put no gates on exhibits, and sometimes have one keeper responsible for two adjoining exhibits. But then, how do you stop maintenance guys sitting down?  rofl

And please, guys, you don't need to use large or coloured fonts. Large fonts are considered shouting, and coloured fonts can be a bit of a pain to read if there is too much! Thanks

i do put a staff gate between exhibits so I don't have to go all the way around.

I just use a communal staff area. just get a staff-only path coming from 2 - 4 exhibits going to one area, with benches and scenery, so it looks realistic.

They only use benches. So what i like too do is only put a few benches in and more picnic tables. They don't sit at picnic tables.

I think you could just put alot of benches in a certain area not to be visable by the guests.
