The bar should have beverage slots you need to fill up in order for the npc´s to appear. Once your out of beverages or until you put beverages in the bar it´s closed. The type of beverage you put in the bar should determine which faction is mostly about to come. If for example you put rum in the bar pirates should be attracted to come to your tavern until the rum is empty.
This way alcohol finally could be usefull again. Also a player wouldn´t constantly have to take out the bartender in order to handle the bar.
