In “The Night” replace

The Yard selects a Customer at random from the list of Customers. That Customer becomes the Active Customer for this Sale

with

The Yard selects a Customer at random from the list of Customers (if there are no Customers, add a Customer to Customers). That Customer becomes the Active Customer for this Sale

Day Tracking will break the Night as we’ll run out of customers. We should come up with a better fix, but this ensures the night can’t get stuck due to not having any customers left

Shouldn’t you adjust the Slack rules instead to double the Customers for Saturday and Sunday? Or alternatively, change the Customer rule entirely to not generate the Customers ahead of time?

I honestly prefer the former because I like the flavor of seeing the Customers lining up before the Night begins.

@JonathanDark this is still useful to have just to make sure we don’t ever get into a situtation where we run out of customres.

for I support both this and Everybody’s Working for the Weekend (but primarily the latter, just this as a fallback).
