Microwaved Quick Meal or Drink misleading as no available drinks on Microwave

[ Edited ]
★★★★★ Expert

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Italiano
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.103.250.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? ALL EP EXCEPT HSY, GRO, HR and FR / ALL GP EXCEPT MWS / ALL SP / CKK-IAK-CSK-MCK-FFK-DLK-PPK-ECK-SCK-GRK
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on a microwave (or a fridge) and choose "Microwaved Quick Meal or Drink"
What happens when the bug occurs? You can't choose a drink from the microwave
What do you expect to see? To not see the option "Drink" for the Microwave
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? I noticed it happened before patch 1.103 but post patch 1.102

 

While I appreciate the new interaction of quick meals taken from the fridge (or lunchboxes) that also includes drinks, it is incorrect to add drinks for the microwave too, as there is no drink to take from the microwave.

 

This picture is from the 1.103 patch notes

This is from in-game (It's in Italian, but if also the patch notes said it, it means it also happens in English)

@GiardiniDiMarzo Going to split this as it's not an englisch text error.

Don't even know if it's a bug cause according to the patch notes, that how they wanted it named. So possibly feedback ?

 

EDIT: That said I have Hot Water as an option. Not sure if that is from a pack you don't own (I have all including early access for rent). Moving General Discussion. Let me know if I misunderstand your issue.

Good Luck

@crinrict Okay nevermind, now I get it. I had captured that screenshot on November 24, but I had not created a post on this forum because I thought it was an error in the Italian version. Today I checked and indeed the Hot Water option has been added which was previously not there. Probably the addition of the drink in the wording was introduced in the previous patch or in an SDX, but the actual option to take a hot drink from the microwave came with this patch. It would have helped if it had been stated a little better in the patch notes. You can close this thread now.
