Someone with some good knowledge in queuing theory needs to visit that code with a large axe, and possibly explosives.
I concur. My partner located an issue with my personal mod... While I was debugging the issue, I played her town for awhile.
She has IndieStone active, so has considerably more children in her town than I do. The count came out to 51 children/teens swarming the school each morning.
We watched the sight and they did indeed all pile up in front of the door, and attempt to get in. Eventually all but one bounced and decided to go home without attending school that day.
I changed the DynamicAvoidance to zero again (the recent patch reset the darn numbers). After doing so, the children all made it into school.
Obviously having them all bounce attempting to enter the school is a serious EAxis issue. Amazing it was missed. Though with the old issue regarding not going to school at all, they probably never encountered the problem in testing.
Good Day.
This is driving me insane and has made my game all but unplayable.
I've been playing a family with 4 teens and they can't even get out of the house to catch the school bus (I have to go into buy mode and drag them into the front yard), then they stand out the front of the school until it's time to go home. Did EAxis really believe the players would NEED to see each individual child walk into the building? I think they need to drop the animation altogether and as soon as they hit the sidewalk in front of the school they should be transported into the building. A bit like the lack of animation for actually getting into a vehicle.
OK, so that's my rant out of the way. Now can anyone tell me how to change the DynamicAvoidance?
EDIT: NVM, I found the thread that gave directions.
