Does this only happens to me? Clean-up dishes problem.
MissDoh:
Since Nightlife I have this problem and I try to isolate it and finally did tonight.
When I send 1 Sim on a restaurant downtown community lot and leave that lot before uncontrollable Sims (that I normally control but can't since they are visiting the community lot) have finished eating their meal, when I reload their household to play them they have lost the ability to clean-up dishes.
I tested that with 5 sims, 4 out of 5 lost the ability to clean-up dishes, the only one that still could was eating from a bowl the other 4 were eating from plates. I normally reset them using the "testing cheats" but I find it really annoying and they should not loose this ability in the 1st place.
It does not seem to affect Sims eating from the BBQ, it seems to be a side effect of eating in restaurant only but I am not 100% sure.
Does this happens to you too? Is there a fix for this somewhere and if not, can it be fixed?

There was a lot of talk about this earlier about sims loosing their ability to clean plates although no one seemed to be aware as to why. You may have found the trigger.

Serious, somehow I miss that post otherwise I would I've posted what I notice in it.
I've been searching for the trigger for a long time and it hit me tonight and I tested my theory right away.
I sure hope someone can fix this since I am assuming a lot of us are having the same problem as I do.
Eventhough I have the "testingcheats" at on while I play, I have no error popping when this happens neither when I reload the lot.

Hrm... that sounds like an odd bug. Are you sure you don't have some kind of hack that has to do with plate cleaning? I could have sworn I read something... possibly related to an Inge plate-cleaning hack...
Alternatively... I had Crammyboy's Let Slobs Be Slobs hack... which prevented my sims from doing a lot of cleaning. I didn't realize it at the time... but what happened was, even though I directed them to clean stuff... they would stop in the middle of it, almost abruptly. At first... I just thought it was weird that they had the option, but then would stop, and then I remembered I had that hack. It was a neat idea to actually let slobs be sloppy, and I liked other features, such as slobs/sloppy sims not caring about a sloppy environment and what not, but if I wanted to punish my sims and make them clean up, then I should be able to do so if I wanted to. :P
If you have any plate-cleaning related hacks, try taking them out and see what happens. ???

Was it Inge that had the plate-cleaning hack? I swear I used to have something to stop either cleaning up plates on comm lots or serving food on comm lots before OFB, and I've been wary about picking up another one post-OFB unless I find one that says it was specifically written for OFB and won't screw with businesses. I know Squinge has something along those lines now, but whatever hack I had before OFB was someone else's.
