5 tiles?

[eb784]

I'm sure this is old news around the community but I'm pretty new, only been playing a few months. Anyway, I ran into a theory on the forums a few weeks back that explained a certain placement of your register would make your customers walk right past it but now I can't find that thread. I've been toying around with what I briefly remembered but I bet I'm doing it wrong. Would someone mind explaining it to me a bit more? Does it only work for the pen feeder method? Thanks for your help!

Hello there. I think 6 tiles from the door should do the trick. Notice that the bots usually stop by the cash register if it's placed nearer than 6 tiles. It doesn't just work with the pen feeder style. I used to have my tables scattered all over and I have my register a little farther from the door so they will just walk past it.
