My Sim's Butler *served* TV dinners for dinner...
sloppyhousewife:
My butler served normal stuff, but I had the "serve" TV dinner on an uni lot yesterday (under the influence of Food Eats You). I liked that very much - sparkly TV dinner fills up really fast, is prepared fast and gives you trash for compost.

I think it's becuause he was so sloppy. When I made him selectable, I noticed his maxed cooking (and cleaning and mechanical). But I have observed that messy sims are far more likely to burn food than neat sims with the same cooking skill (even if they're in a good mood).
This is almost certainly a not-trueity, because I was reviewing the burn code when trying to fix the CONSTANT BURNING, even when the sim is FREAKING WATCHING IT by OPENING IT REPEATEDLY, and found nothing to support this idea, it is a pure straight random. Rather unrealistic, since as everyone knows, nothing ever burns while you are watching it. Some complicated quantum mechanics business is involved in this.

This is all simply typical of all EAxian cheatage and general laziness. The butler is baulked by locked doors that have no effect on other service personnel ... lazy EAxis not programming the NPC correctly. But no! They also "cheat" by making sure that fires and rotten service are rampant. Another example of this sort of cheatage occurs when Uni dormies abort a social situation to "go to class" at 5:30am in bare-faced contradiction to the stated class times in their skills panels. I like a challenge, but it's fucking annoying when the challenges all relate to defeating the idiotic inconsistencies left (or inserted) by the makers.

Ok then; I stand corrected.

By the way, I *hate* those freaking hotel maids. Is there *any* way short of making them selectable and actually telling them to clean to get them to freaking *clean*? It sucks bad enough that you can't leave the lot and have to watch them clean, but staying in my hotel all day watching the hotel maid *not* clean is beyond maddening. >:(
Simwardrobe has a fix for the hotel maid that works pretty well:
