BEERMAN YOU'RE AWESOME!!! hope great things come for you and your channel

6:55 You seem to be missing a Sharky effigy (you noticed later) but you do at least have its poster. I don't think mammals spawn in the wild until 2TTi (which you did reach later in the video). 11:40 This is another place where Oesbe butterfly larvae should spawn. I thought those domes had a second accessible fridge with more genetic traits in but I couldn't see it. 13:24 I did wonder whether you knew because last time you unpinned from the construction menu. The brown skin pattern colour can only be found in loot which is why you have so much of it; you're expected to use the genetic extractor to get most of the traits. (Petting also works well to duplicate traits.) The ecosystem and ore crusher are the easiest way to get common larvae - get the drones to move the common butterflies to the ore crusher, then either store or throw away the fertiliser and mutagen.

Missed this series but loving your Supermarket simulator, great video!

Love watching these videos!

🔹The game saves at the end of each day and keeps 6 of the most recent days. There is a way to force an earlier save but it requires a bit of file manipulation in your user folders. A step-by-step is in a reply to this thread. 🔹Tip: wash your windows once a day when you begin the new day. You start every day on the street looking at the windows, so ... They build up dirt based on time and it's barely noticeable in a single day. Just make it a part of your before-open routine. Spills and trash seem to be a bit more random. Notice that you receive one Store Point for every single cleaning action you perform. Cleaning can be a nuisance but it's not "pointless" (pun intended). 🔹The deal with after 9 PM customers: Up to 9 o-clock the game spawns in customers headed to the store, and they can spawn anywhere on the map. It may take a minute or two for them to walk from where they spawn in. As long as you don't turn on the "closed" sign they will enter the store even after 9 PM. If you turn on the closed sign, shoppers inside will finish their full shopping list, but no one else will enter. You can close and reopen the store any time during the day that you want with the same NPC behavior. Flipping the open/closed sign in the middle of the day does NOT stop the clock.

Hey, hope you had a great start into the new year :) Enjoyed this video, but there is one thing that grinds my gears a little, i think that the long lasting milk should be in the bottom shelf slot, because drinks are mostly in the bottom because of the weight. So to my eye it looks cleaner if the smaller and lighter items are on the top shelf, and bigger heavier items on the bottom. Keep up!

I found a lot of ponds on the beach and in the caves leading from there to the crater

I’ve come to realise that restockers don’t always fully restock. I can have gaps on shelf and stock in the warehouse but they just leave it there. Not sure if this is meant to happen or not.

Sorry for laughing but that was a funny episode. It gets more stressful the more items you have. Have you thought about increasing the amount of each item on display, i.e instead of two shelves make it 3 or even 4 for the ones that sell the most. I know you don't have the room right now but it might help with running out of certain items. Also having a self checkout can help but as a word of caution, some customers will still require help and that means you leaving the checkout. Great vid as always.

2:35 Hey. You got a nice rack. Lol

I like the game so far I just think it’s stupid items don’t stack.

You are playing an older version. They fixed some NPC pathing bugs, but they also added another level of multi-tasking - you need to keep the store clean, and it's not an option you can turn off. It doesn't seem to be any employee's function to clean, either. If you have Steam's auto updates turned off just be aware that updating will add this extra chaos. *There's a couple of ways to play the first level:* 1. Hire a cashier and handle all the restocking yourself. I *had no idea* you could boost the cashier's speed! 2. Hire a stocker and run the cash register yourself. Order what you need for the day making sure you have enough storage shelves. The stocker will pick up boxes from the street; put them in storage or on the store shelves. He will NOT put a box on the floor so he CAN get stuck if he's carrying a box half full with product if there is no available shelf. It happens mostly if you over order a product, he stocks a store shelf from a box from the street, has product remaining in the box and there is no more room in storage. He will also pick up and throw away empty boxes you may have thrown on the floor or street. Saving empty boxes for shifting products around is almost impossible now unless you throw them across the street, but the update includes a crate in your carry tools for this. 3. Sell the cash register and buy a self checkout (or two). It runs at the same speed as the cashier, and I don't know if it can also be boosted (my guess is no) but it's a one time cost. Costumers will occasionally need assistance - another layer of multi-tasking but it's not too often.

Yes the cashier is slow but at the moment there is no penalty for customers who are waiting, they will just move around the store until a place in the queue opens up. It might change a later date but right now, I wouldn't worry about it. Great episode.

only 2 things I would change and that is not using base pieces after the first 3 and just let the compartments just hover above them and then not slavishly copy your build.

Agree with you on a few of the games, planet crafter and the dlc, both shop simulators. Not played the others but great list and happy new year.

I think you should check out enshrouded, my number 1 game for 2024.

I definitely agree with your #1 pick. I've got over a thousand hours in it myself.

Good list. A couple of my own favorites; 7DTD, Planet Crafter.

At this point, you should change the name of the store to "Everything but Beer"

you should try Satisfactory.

Nice vid!

Each upgrade is another section along the back wall. It will keep expanding that way. Great episode as usual. Just a note, might be worth thinking about hiring an employee, that way he can work the checkout while you order, clean and restock but if you do, round off the prices as it slows them down.

Enjoying this series. It's fun to do in a game, not fun in real life 😂

I gave a warning earlier about adding the ceiling lights sparingly because their shadow casting effect can lag the game. It looks like either the developers have optimized the lighting or your graphics settings are set lower than some of the other play-throughs. I see that independent shadows from each light is gone and the ambient occlusion appears to be lower in detail and from a single source ambient light. I'd say you can add lights to your heart's content. Kudos to the developer for diving deeper past the game engine's default features.

Love watching you play these games. I sometimes even end up buying them to play myself. Shopping sim certainly lends itself to your friendly banter style of commentary. Keep it up mate 😎👍

It's a matter of play style, but one technique is to keep the order window open on the computer during the day. If you weren't able to order an item to start because of low funds you can order it as you make money during the day. Each day the game seems to choose certain items that will be the "hot sellers". Making an order and putting it on the shelf in the middle of the day adds another layer to the multitasking chaos, but will prevent you from running out of that product. I don't know if the game uses a variable like store reputation/customer happiness to effect the number of customers for the day. At the very least running out of a product means lost profits, especially if it's a hot seller.

This is a game of patience. It's addictive to play because the grind is easy enough and you know the end goal achievements from the start - a large grocery store with employees and all the available products. I haven't a clue why people like watching it being played. 🔹Just something to be aware of; as you expand be careful how much lighting you add. Each ceiling light casts shadows and reflections and something called ambient occlusion. Your GPU has to calculate these things for each animation frame so the more lights the more time it takes to render each frame. If the calculation time exceeds the frame rate the game begins to lag when you turn on the lights.

I get so stuck on wanting to build the "perfect" base that I end up not building anything at all. This is some great inspiration to just go ahead and have fun with it^^

Isn't this supposed to be about LARVAE?!?!?!?! Seven minutes in and your still doing irrelevant shit.

Have a Jolly good Christmas vacation! 👌❤😇

Good Morning. You may have not setup your first T2 beehive for drone logistics when you switched them from T1.

Happy Holidays! Enjoy the time with family.

Wishing you and your family a very merry Christmas. Hope you have a good one. 🎄🎉

That was actually a poster B you put at the far left, so don't confuse yourself if you find an A later. I wonder what would have happened had you parked the rover under the spaceship's door. Do cosy chairs give you smart fabric when you deconstruct them? It might be worthwhile especially if you don't have the recipe for smart fabric yet. You have seen DR23 before; it was holding some space food. I think the message might have been one of the ones that was changed in the update (DR4's message regarding DR23 already existed before the update). Right now it's the amphibians farm that will really boost your animals - 825g/s as opposed to 195g/s.

YOU-RAIN-IH-NITE. maybe?

YOU-RAN-EH-NIGHT. Maybe?

Nice starter base. Would love to see an end game base using this starter design.

"My insects are flying". No pun intended! Another great vid, thanks. 😊

Obviously had you been playing this with the latest update from the start then you would have found occasional logs as you first discovered the drones. At least they were able to add the logs to existing drones that you'd already looted so that you didn't have to miss out; sometimes that doesn't always work out and you need to start a new save. (I know a content creator who was disappointed because they didn't get a Goldeo spacesuit.) 5:15 If you notice they changed the colour of this ship in the latest update so it's now Starform green. I only saw you set one of your T2 beehives to supply, but the other may have got lost in the edit. (I also didn't see you set up your zeolite T3 ore extractor, but you realised that mistake.) T3 ore extractors have always been able to extract sulphur anywhere for some reason. I was slightly surprised that you left all that osmium since nine osmium rods doesn't seem cheap. The T3 ore extractor shows that the bauxite is 50% aluminium with the rest being a mixture of iron, silicon and magnesium. Unfortunately with the latest update you can't recycle bauxite so the best you can do is to use the T3 ore crusher which will only give you five of those six minerals. Fortunately you don't need that much aluminium in the long run so it's probably not a big loss. Not that you need it any more but there is a drone in a lava cave but it's in a side cave with the entrance nearer the saboteur's ship. (There are probably nearer twenty logs that you can collect; they did a similar thing with the Warden keys where you only needed ten but there are thirteen on the map.) Some of the drone messages did get changed in the latest update but I don't remember which ones.

The lights are to brite in ANY of the lava areas. Same on prime. Thx for sharing

Don't forget about the new mammal they added, it's a really weird looking one but I love it 😂 Great video as always!

I need to do some catching up, between the stairs and the message reading. Glad to see Humble world befits from the extra work.

How did you get the vault? When I try to deconstruct them it just opens the inventory instead.

Happy Belated Birthday! enjoying your series so much! 🎉

Nice video, thanks
