Dear fellow players, I have some questions and I hope you can help me out
1. (i use xio script) I have stores in different cities and in store A I can hire 100 employees and in store B only 40 employees. More than 40 - efficiency drops really hard. So it is my low qualification, but why in a place i can have 100 and in the other only 40? With Offices at 100% efficiency. And also, this is considering that the total number of employees on profile qualification is well below the xio script "target" indicator (I have 362 and the "target"is 540).
2. customs duties calculation. I use the Analytics -> Macroeconomics -> Transport page. There it shows me that if I want to import a product it will cost me 1000$. When I go to the store, the costs actually amount to 14000$ ! So... should i use only this https://virtonomics.com/lien/forum/forum_new/13/topic/105965/view thread to calculate things because the Transport page is almost useless?
3. if i put factories on holiday, do i get a penalty to qualification growth?
I hope I didn't over-complicate my first and most ardent question.
1: it's likely due to workers qualification. Could be also shop size, popularity (maybe), and the number of items/departments you have. Lower the qualification more workers you can have, there's a tradeoff with customer satisfaction, however if workers are too busy satisfaction will be low anyways. Try lowering the salary of your workers a little but hire more. Xio isn't 100% prefect but it still does a great job.
3: no penalty, just the worker's leech money off you and no qualification growth. The workers also don't go towards the total number that your qualification permits either.
