Title: Food wants showing at odd hours
Post by: MissDoh on 2007 November 01, 03:20:43
I am sick and tired of my sims spinning the want to eat cereal at 5pm in the afternoon because it just happened to get up. I cannot even cook that meal at that hour.  There are other meals wants that are showing at odd hours.

Is there a mod already available fixing this so the game would look at what time it is before it spin the food want?

I do not want a mod permitting me to cook meals at anytime, I simply do not want those wants to spin at impossible hours for me to fulfill them.

Does this exist?  Is it already part of the wants & fears sanity mod (I did not notice it iss a feature but I have to ask)?

Does one even still need a hack for that? I thought the OFB-added "Make" option allowed one to make anything?

Indeed Pescado, I totally forgot about the "make" option coming with BV.  I just tried to make a single plate of mac & cheese at 3 am and I was able too.  Of course the sim will put it on the counter so I have to direct it to eat it but at least the wants do get fulfill when my sim ate it.

I rarelly use that feature since I do not have types of business that requires me to use it.

People without OFB though might like it.

If the sim is hungry enough, they will eat it autonomously.  Failing that, you can try skillinating, and if they need a little food, they will probably eat it before they start to skillinate - macrogarden is good for this too.

Thanks for your suggestions Zephyr I really appreciate them.  But other than the basic macrostatic mod I do not use the other mods you mention and for now have no intention too.

All I am asking is if something already exist or can be done so those food wants would actually show up at hours I can fulfill them and that I would not need to direct my sim again to eat it once it is cooked.

If there is nothing like that and someone is interested in trying to fix, I would appreciate it.

Well, macrogarden is part of macrotastics.

I just check and that option do not show up in the macrostatics menu for me, I check both outside and inside the house.

I do not seem to have the requirements on the lot for it to show and it is becoming a bit complicated now when all I want is the food want to show when I can actually fulfill it weither the sim is hungry enough or not.

Again thanks for the help though.  :)

Well, you only see it when there is something that needs to be watered, weeded or clipped.  That's the advantage of using the skillinator as well, they can macroskillinate gardening, and if there is nothing to be done in the garden they will feed, pee and shower and then just walk about - which is when you can stop them and get them to do something else.
