Menus & venues
Do venues keep working while you sleep? Evening sales and wages
Yes. Update 6 says venues continue operating when you go to sleep early. Customers in those evening hours are served, pay for their orders and leave reviews. Staff are paid for those hours as well.
Sleeping early does not pause the whole business or create wage-free sales. Keep the venue’s actual operating conditions in mind before comparing the next day’s balance.

Prepare the evening before going to bed
- Inspect the active menu and expand any missing ingredient or processor icon.
- Check available ingredients and storage, including the exact crop if greenhouse supply is enabled.
- Confirm roles and scheduled staff coverage for the period you intend the venue to operate.
- Read the venue’s supply target and daily restocking budget separately.
- Make a manual save if you are comparing the behavior, then use the normal sleep interaction.
Compare a service period, not just wallet balance
Record the venue’s reports before sleeping and after the next day begins. Look for completed sales, reviews and paid wages together. Other expenses, purchases and debt deductions can also affect cash, so a lower wallet does not by itself prove the evening service failed.
The patch establishes continued evening operation and pay. It does not publish an exact simulated customer count, guarantee that every menu item sells or supply a numerical profit formula for sleeping.
Sleeping does not fix a broken service chain
A missing ingredient, unsupported recipe or uncovered role still needs diagnosis. Follow the worker and task checks or the supply branch for the actual missing link.
For two venues, compare each venue’s report and period separately. Do not infer a universal same-district customer split or a guaranteed optimal opening schedule from this sleep fix.
Keep curfew and the story ending separate
Curfew and shelter access determine how you safely end the night while travelling. They are separate from the venue simulation. Update 6 fixes a curfew-caught trap; it does not remove the need to plan your route home.
Before a major final story objective, keep a pre-ending manual save. Ordinary sleep continuation is not a promise that the story ending opens an endless mode.
