Dine out

[candiecoatediv]

Not sure if I should add this here or create its own thread. If I need to let me know. I am now experiencing this with bartenders at venues. The last time I played (2 days ago) the bar tender never entered the bar. No matter how many times I reset them. Usually a reset will work but not this time.

@rikatuu In my experience they DO eventually enter the lot and perform their job but it does take much longer than it should. Resetting them does help them along tho.

I STILL have this issue in my game where when i go to a restaurant , one chef is stood outside and stands there like a gormless idiot until i reset them , then they go work , then eventually a second chef finally appears if i have 2 chef stations on the lot , If one station i still have to reset the chef to get them to work

This is still a problem. I have no mods I’m on an XBOX One.

I'm having this problem too. After about 2 Sims hours the chef will finally enter the lot and start cooking, but they don't always serve my table and then I just give it up and leave. Usually my Sim is starving my then lol.

Well I keep looking at the Laundry Lists with hope in my heart but I am always disappointed.  This month is no exception.  Laundry List .  I used to be astounded that a bug that breaks the whole Dine Out pack could be allowed to continue for such a long time.  I am becoming resigned to Sims 4 being retired with this bug still existing.  Such a shame it was a good pack.

Chefs don't go into restaurants.

I’m having the same problem.

My chef won’t go inside the restaurant to do his work. I tried both cooking stations and different chefs. I have no mds or CC because I play in the PS5 console.

very disappointed that the pack is broken.
