Business Controller: Business Runs YOU!
witch:
Hi JM. I just updated all your hacks and started playing. I wanted to hire a new employee, so I slected one that was unemployed - or so the blurb said. When I clicked to employ I got a message saying this sim is already employed.
Is this anything to do with businessusesyou?
J. M. Pescado:
No, this is a fairly typical bug caused by garbage data in the job fields. It's harmless.

The bartender I described above at Club Dante would frequently get in a bind where he was simultaneously starving and dead tired. He would try to macrocaffeinate, but he couldn't get much energy from it, and when he tried to take a plate of pork chops, the error would pop up. I haven't played the lot again since then, though.
Ancient Sim, I've used Inge's PYP plant before with Macrotastics, and while I haven't used it specifically with BRY, BRY uses Macrotastics. I wouldn't think it would conflict because Macrotastics works differently in that it only kicks in when a need becomes low enough and pushes the command on the sim to do something to take care of it. Inge's PYP in my mind would be the equivalent of using debug mode to adjust the motive bars manually to keep them at a certain level, so that Macrotastics is never called. I am going to have to get some snapdragons in my businesses. Does it boost everything except energy? I've been trying TJ's energy statue on some comm lot businesses, and they work great for the family, but it doesn't do anything for employees, only selectable sims.
Ancient Sim:
Both lots have espresso bars (with automatic baristas) but they were never sent there. Malcolm Landgraab can't leave his alone, he does nothing whatsoever but drink coffee, but his staff were never sent to it (this is on the 1-2-3 gym). I would imagine the reason the owner of the bordello never bothered to go drink coffee was because he was too busy trying out the woo-hoo beds, but the sales guy didn't even go to those until I set him to "Unassigned", then he did. And no, neither of them have flamingos (forgot about those), so I will try adding some. Doesn't explain why they weren't sent for coffee, though. Will try the updated thingumybobs.
Oh and Rainbow, I have been shoving them up with boolprop to keep them going, but I prefer to avoid it if I can because it's just too easy. Trouble is, I was ignoring them thinking they would be taken care of and they weren't. What surprises me is that they didn't just walk off home. It's all very confusing really. When it says they are underpaid I have no idea how much to increase it by because the option to do it via "Management" has gone, so I just have to guess. It doesn't update for quite a while, so I never know if I've got it right. That might be down to relevantwages though, not this mod.
J. M. Pescado:
You need the standard espresso machines. The bars are too unreliable and couldn't be made to work in testing.
