Overtime at steel works, great capital



AuthorOvertime at steel works, great capital
The shift overs at 8.30 but its already 8.33 and the shift isn't over. Some bug?

It usually lags sometimes. I reckon that the enroll function has the lowest processing priority in the server or something.
In my personal experience, that "bug" only occurs when I enroll in Machining or Production factories and never at any of the Mining factories.
Question: does it happen when you have workaholic penalty? My multi is currently down to 0.1 wage and she spent a few minutes in overtime.
It has nothing to do with workaholic penalty.

As far as I know, it is not known if this is a bug or by design. BrownBears answer covers as much as I know about it too.
it seems to be a bug related to integers.

Shortly, when you start a shift after XX:X2'30" or XX:X7'30", server considers it as if it started at X5' or X0' that follows, but shows it as if it started 5 minutes earlier.

So, if a shift starts at 8:33, server will show its end at 8:30, but will really ends it at 8:35.
It is a design feature. Implemented to deter script users from trying to auto-enroll or auto-sell etc. By moving the shift end back 5 minutes, it upsets people trying to use scripts.
I reckon that the enroll function has the lowest processing priority in the server or something.

I think that's correct. The "worker payment" process checks all the mines every 5 minutes. Every once in a while, it lags, possibly because of a low priority or high server load.
No, it is specifically a script breaker.
