  • Photographers, medics and vendors spread out too
  • Painted patrol areas still come first

Everything in this update (2)
  • Sweepers and other roaming staff now spread out: they head for parts of the park nobody has walked lately instead of trailing each other, and two of them no longer chase the same mess (thanks to a player’s report)
  • Photographers, medics, entertainers and vendors spread out the same way; an entertainer leaves a long queue to a colleague who is nearer to it. Patrol areas you paint still come first
