Maggie shouldn't be hidden by other characters

After you fail to find Maggie it shows (or at least showed for me) where she was. Right *behind* Principal Skinner, doing his crossing guard task at Springfield Elementary. Making her much harder if not impossible to see.

Very frustrating.

Now look, I know EA can't just check for a location being obscured by something/someone else and prevent Maggie from ever being at that location (she only has so many spots, so that sort of thing could be "gamed" to limit her to one spot), but it's NOT too much to ask that she never be placed at a location behind another character doing a scheduled task at a set location, who never moves.

I was setup to fail there.


Sound on. She makes increasingly louder "suck" noise the closer you get.

    Nice! :)

    I had sound on. I heard her just fine. But I still couldn't see her. She was hidden behind Skinner, remember? So the sound only made things more frustrating.

    It's just poor design, like at least one other task (I think at Quick-E-Mart) where there are/were two other characters with tasks there who stand in the exact same spot, overlapping each other.
