[h1]Priorities[/h1] I mentioned in the last devblog that the game can sometimes be a bit of a waiting game, and that I wanted to make some changes to make it more interesting. After playing some older builds, I came to the conclusion that the priority system was actually quite interesting, and deemphasizing it might have been a mistake. I reverted these changes so there is now only one staff type again, and have a separate window to set their priorities.

I did not want to lose this benefit so I made staff clothing an option that can be set for all employees.

The 3 stats that each employee has are: [b]Clumsiness[/b]: Clumsy employees have a higher chance of dropping plates. [b]Cooking[/b]: Cooking skill affects food quality of the food that the employee cooks. [b]Speed[/b]: Affects the walking speed of the employee. Stats are randomly generated, and employees with better stats also have higher wages. I hope that the combination of the priority mechanic and the stats mechanic will lead to interesting strategies and possibilities.
