Or better yet, make the shelves snap rather than simply dropping items on them or have them work like an inventory system where you get storage slots sorta like the shop.

A snap grid would be great especially for all the smaller boxes of items required for chocolate decoration. I would also second the suggestion for tilted/slanted shelves specifically for the decoration items so it can be observed at a glance which items have run out in the boxes.

Adding a snap grid on all the shelves would be fantastic. It would also fix that weird physic freak out that happens when you add something to a lower shelf and it causes anything on the upper shelf to fall over.

I think the decoration systems needs to be refillable, like the additives. Swap the shelf out for some drawers or add permanent boxes that we can refill...
At the very least, make the number of items per box much much larger.

I'm getting orders for 6 bars, each with 5 of something on them. I spend more time ordering, sorting, and tossing out empty boxes than I do making and filling the chocolate.

a snap grid would be awesome and also having the robot unload the shipping and placing items in the warehouse would be great

After throwing away 2 full inventories of empty decoration boxes I really think this aspect needs reworking so when you add more decorations boxes it just condenses itself. The clearing of empty boxes for this is so time consuming having to move things around all the time.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Snapping shelves please!

Alternatively there could be a command to ask for Nougar to throw away empty deco boxes

You talking about permanent boxes reminds me of the baking dlc for cooking simulator. Decorations there work kinda like that

I am not a fan of him to be honest I leave him on the maintenance machine all day, the dude has jump scared me at least twice turning around to find him right behind me. I play with sound off so have no indicator he is there until too late.

I would rather do everything in game by myself but if he could just sort the warehouse trash and just do all jobs being asked only once I would consider using him.

A setting for him once a day to be requested for all maintenance without the repeated asking. It's like getting jobs done at home. Saves all the talking just doing it myself.

The snapping idea is great, you waste less time trying to precisely place items to maximize space. It would also help if the top shelves were a bit lower, given that your character can't jump and there isn't even a stepladder, you just can't physically see all the other items stacked at the rear of the top shelf.

Cleaning out empty decoration boxes is a real chore, so I just threw them in a pile on the ground instead, but even that's a bad idea as the boxes when thrown typically face downward and you can't tell what it is at a glance.

Currently, my workaround is to buy ingredients grouped by type (powders, liquids, decorations, etc) then just plop the crate down on the shelf, and only take what I need. When it comes to the decoration boxes, I lay them down on the ground, far easier to see and access than putting them in on shelves. Still, it gets very tedious when you get one of those orders that requires a large number of butterflies, toffees, or anything that has less than 10 quantity per box, but at least you can clean up the empty boxes a bit easier afterwards.
