Guest Needs Checklist

Use this interactive checklist while you play Station Master Tycoon on Roblox. Copy it into notes or keep this tab open — each box represents a guest need or milestone Taco Dev’s tutorial and live servers expect before visitors happily ride trains to other stations.

Press E on PC (or follow on-screen prompts on mobile) to read guest thoughts. If stars stall, walk this list top to bottom before searching for exploits — our Scripts Hub confirms no verified public scripts exist, and missing amenities are the usual culprit.

Before you expand — core tutorial chain

Complete these once per fresh station save:

  • Spawn area clear — guests can walk from entry without clipping props or half-built walls.
  • First bench placed — seating in the build menu; guests need somewhere to rest early.
  • Ticket machine live — place and confirm guests interact before rushing to cosmetics.
  • Bathroom available — hygiene need; skipping it triggers negative thoughts fast.
  • Bakery or food service — hunger satisfied before long waits on platforms.
  • Walls define zones — separate concourse, retail, and platform areas logically.
  • Paving / flooring — continuous walkable paths without random gaps.
  • Stairs or vertical access — prefab stairs if your layout changes elevation.
  • Platform segment placed — aligned with where trains stop.
  • Track connected — trains can arrive and depart; test one full loop.

If any box stays unchecked, fix it before grinding stars on decoration. Pretty plants do not replace ticketing.

Every session — guest feedback loop

Run this loop after each building session:

  • Listen to three random guests — press E near different NPCs; note repeated complaints.
  • Queue paths short — no maze between entrance, shops, and platforms.
  • Seating near waits — benches by ticket lines and departure boards.
  • Bins placed — litter feedback appears when trash cans are missing on busy concourses.
  • Departure board visible — guests find train info without backtracking.
  • Shops unlocked with stars — check build menu tiers; higher star items need prior satisfaction.
  • Lighting readable — dim corners hide missing amenities; add lamps if thoughts stay vague.
  • One test boarding — watch a guest path from spawn → services → platform → train door.

Stuck thoughts often mean one missing category (food, seat, toilet, ticket) rather than “need more scripts.”

Star progression checklist

Stars gate better props. Verify these habits:

  • Stars trending up — compare rating before/after a build wave; flat lines mean a blocked need.
  • Shop tier reviewed — open build catalog; note star locks on items you want next.
  • Retail not blocking paths — shops should invite guests, not trap them in corners.
  • Bathroom count scales — add another restroom before doubling platform length.
  • Food variety if available — bakery plus cafe zones reduce duplicate hunger complaints.
  • Platform capacity matches seating — long trains need longer benches and wider concourses.
  • Eyedropper duplicates smart props — copy ticket machines or bins instead of misplacing new ones.
  • Paint last — recolor floors after layout works; see Layout Planner.

Multiplayer server checklist (up to 4 players)

Official descriptions allow small servers. Coordinate so guests do not confuse half-built zones:

  • Agree who owns platforms vs concourse — fewer overlapping walls.
  • Shared path standards — same paving style at merges reduces dead ends.
  • Do not block partner tracks — test train loop after their edits.
  • Visit each other’s wings — ride trains; steal layout ideas, not script files.
  • Chat missing amenities — if your side lacks bathrooms, guests penalize the whole station feel.

Before calling a build “done”

Final verification pass:

  • Walk spawn to train in under a minute — without sprinting through debug gaps.
  • No dead-end corridors — every path loops or exits intentionally.
  • Ticket + food + toilet trifecta within sight of main flow.
  • At least one scenic spot — optional photo bench or view; guests enjoy atmosphere too.
  • Train departure observed — satisfied guest boards; income and progression tick.
  • Rebuild note written — one sentence on what to fix next session (keeps scope sane).

When stars still will not rise

If every box above is checked and feedback stays negative:

  1. Re-read guest thoughts literally — players often misinterpret “want coffee” as “need script.”
  2. Compare with a station you visit by train; identify one flow difference.
  3. Check Updates Hub for patch changes to guest AI or star math.
  4. Ask on Discord with screenshots — community builders diagnose layouts faster than fake exploit sites.
  5. Review Script Safety Guide if you already tried suspicious downloads; malware distractions do not fix design.

Keep this checklist bookmarked. Station Master Tycoon is about watching guests use what you build — tick boxes in-game, not in an executor.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Station Master Tycoon players.

How do I check what guests want?

Press E near AI guests on PC or use mobile interaction prompts. Their thoughts name missing amenities such as seating, food, or bathrooms.

What order should I build amenities?

Follow the tutorial chain: bench, ticket machine, bathroom, bakery, then structure, paving, stairs, platform, and track. Expand shops after stars unlock tiers.

Why are my stars stuck?

Usually a missing need in the checklist loop — unread guest thoughts, blocked paths, or insufficient bathrooms for your platform size.

Does this checklist work after updates?

Core needs stay similar, but patch notes may add items. Cross-check Updates and Discord when Taco Dev ships major changes.

Can I share this checklist with friends?

Yes. Link them to this wiki page. It is safer than sharing unverified script files that risk Roblox bans.
