Does this only happens to me? Clean-up dishes problem.
akatonbo:
He's referring to a function of Macrotastics, which is one of his hack systems. (Specifically, it's the one that lets you tell a Sim to do a task instead of interacting with an object. Instead of clicking on a dirty counter and selecting clean, then clicking on a dirty toilet and selecting clean, then clicking on a dirty bathtub and selecting clean, you just use Macrotastics to tell the Sim to clean, and it'll direct the Sim to clean up all that dirty stuff for you.)
Macrotastics is here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=208.0
(I don't actually use it myself, although I have been considering it. I'm not using any of the more complex hack systems right now.)
MissDoh:
Well I don't use macro in my game and Pescado knows that already (well I think he does).
Pescado, can't you do a seperate hack that would fix this only instead of having us install the macro. I am not interested in macro at all I am sure there is other ways to solve this. I am not the only one not interested in macro, I don't want to turn my sims into soldier.
Thanks Akatonbo for the details that Pes did not provide me. :)

Ok. I definitely remember reading about this somewhere. I did a quick search and found these links:
MTS2 Archive
Custom food disappears - bandaid patch
I don't know if this could be related to your problem, but it seems likely. In my search, google provides a link to the archive above, which text 'Can't clean up dirty plates. (Tons of info!)' but I didn't find the specific thread yet. :P It's annoying that it links me to the entire archive and not the specific thread. If someone else manages to find it first, maybe it has answers to your problem. *shrugs*

Thanks Syber, though I don't have custom food in my game I could give it a try in case it would solve the problem who knows. :)

I feel like I'm playing interpreter here. MissDoh, it doesn't sound like he was suggesting that Macrotastics would necessarily solve your problem -- he wanted to know what happened if you use it and told the Sim with the problem to clean up dishes, probably to see whether his routine could find any dishes for the Sim to clean up. On the other hand, I'm not sure how well he understood your description of the problem. The information about what happens when Macrotastics is told to find dishes to clean could still be useful for debugging, though.
syberspunk, here's the thread you saw on Google (I used the cached version of the page): http://www.modthesims2.com/archive/index.php/t-150145.html
Very detailed -- lots of info is right. It's not exactly the same problem, but it is at least partially related to being interrupted in the middle of a meal, it's a post-OFB issue, they have a temporary fix (but not a preventative), and the only reply doesn't really add much to the discussion.
