No one mentioned Gummy Joe's 24h task missing?
Similar to the Chortle task, other characters seem to gravitate to hiding under the SH mountains. I know they don't move during these task and they weren't under to begin with (not that they ever should be either!), so maybe more characters than Kang and Kodos need fixed. Example: Willy playing bagpipe.
On assigning from buildings, that would be a great one for getting Babysitter Bandit or Wise Guy to animate a specific building without having to jump through hoops. I already favored this suggestion but now I want it even more!
I agree on adding the odd-timed task lengths to the UEO (UO?), maybe even the 45s tasks, lol. Most suggestions in the replies are also great even if I didn't point it out.
Thanks, OP. Great suggestions.
Separate the character finder so there is one for "awaiting tasks" characters and one for "ready for collection" characters, I don't like the way
Agreed. But about more buttons, maybe instead just allow the damn thing to cycle through like it used to (and still does when everyone is "waiting for something to do". That won't fix all issues, but it's an easy fix that EA can fix with a patch and then find this better solution like hiding buttons or whatnot.
Make it possible to rush jobs via the employment centre when some characters are free, right now if you have a character free they must be tasked before all others can be rushed together.
While I agree that this is annoying, I figure that's part of the game... dunno, I could be persuaded. ;) I've learned to live with it. I mess up a lot, but then "meh" is what I say....
Characters with a quest task should ignore quest after requirements are fulfilled.
That might mess with "unlimited questline" stuff... I'll agree if it's simply that the task is unyellowed but still placed at the top. This may or may not mean that that task is the one assigned by the Unemployment Office. So, it's basically both of the options that I didn't quote. First you have to manually assign, say, 10 characters, then you can assign everyone else using the UEO (UO?).
Only one task per decoration or building.
I understand, but maybe you meant "animated task" not just "task"...because what about the brown house? That would mess that up big time. If you did still sorta mean "task" then I'd say yes if you mean "send each character to a different brown house at least until you run out of brown houses". I'd love all my brown houses to be lit up by a different characters. In fact, I'd buy as many brown houses as I'd need to keep it at one per character. So, if you rephrase that, add that in as my request.... unless this is strictly for "fixes".

Example: quest asks to send 5 people to do something. Option appears to send all characters within the town on this mission automatically.
I enjoy sending 200 some characters to 1 building. I will stop event tasks, stop crafting tasks, just to send all 200 to the building. I did so with the Dead Lobster task and that was awesome. Only Apu, Sanjay, Manjula, Jesse Grass, and a few others couldn't do that one for some reason.
Ah, yes, I see. Like you could manually assign your character or there's a special button that says "send all, you lazy *". hah!
Hmm, I guess all those guys are vegetarians. Surprising that Lisa is not on that list. I'm pretty she has mentioned in-game that she is a vegesaurus.

Of the over 120 characters I have only one of them doesn't have a one hour task because it is tied to a premium building I don't have.
Hah, I just bought Shorty's because that was bugging me! Only 40 or so and I still had 200+ from farming, so yay!

As an alternate suggestion, maybe an second image to use with the 'rotate' button that lines up a space to the right or left? That way they don't have to code a new quarter piece object.
That would work for me.
On the monorail tunnel lining up...only SF lines up for me, whereas SH side is off by one block.
