Since the update my security will not go into the camera room. I have several security guards that are camera-trained, and I have made it so the only task they should be doing is the camera room, however unless I physically place them in the room they will not do it. I have tried assigning free guards to the room by using the "assign" button in the room itself, but every time the guard will just stand there and not do anything besides the security guard "I have nothing to do" sway. I'm not sure if this is a problem in sandbox as well, but it is definitely causing me issues in the campaign mode. The problem seems to crop up whenever the guard in the room goes on break, as it seems that the system is not auto-assigning a free guard for whatever reason. And I know for a fact that there are plenty of free guards as I have every single one, bar two but that's because I needed the double surveillance skill for a POI, trained on camera-room. This is happening in several levels, but it is especially noticeable in the Marine Life level due to having several different buildings with camera rooms in them that I keep having to physically place guards in.


For some reason the bug reporter will not let me attach video or screenshot, so I am hoping that the description is enough.

Step by step of the bug
Step 1
Guard in the Camera Room goes on break
Step 2
game does not assign new guard despite several having "Available" status
Step 3
have to physically assign a guard to the camera room
Step 4
guard does not head to camera room and soon reverts back to "Available" status
Step 5
have to physically place guard in the camera room
Step 6
Repeat

Hello, 


Sorry to hear this! 


Could you let us know if picking up and placing back down the Camera room can help? DO you also have any zones that could be interfering with the Camera Room and Staff?


So that I can try to investigate your issue further, would you mind sending across your Two Point Museum folder? To do so follow this navigation path in file explorer: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Two Point Studios\Two Point Museum. Once located, "Zip" the folder up (right click and you should see the option).


Zipping a folder is a way of compressing it into a smaller size. If you don't have an option to do this, you may need to download a program to help. I use one called 7zip which can be obtained here. The top option - ".exe - 64bit windows..." should do the trick. Once zipped up, you can attach it to your reply.


Thanks,


Chizel
