Re: [BY DESIGN] Issue when asking multiple sims to use fridge
@NennaRC wrote:I still have this problem, which makes it difficult for the sims to sync their meals and eat together as the others don't wait for their turn when one sim grabs food from the fridge although several sims have been sent to the same. Instead they start doing something else and the get leftovers action dissapears from their queue and I have to send them yet again to the fridge. Meanwhile the first sim who got his food has already finished his meal without company.
Also meals in general could be better synced so that sims get their food more or less at the same time and get seated at the dining table. Then they should start eating at the same time also. Why do someone finish when someone else starts? I understand that they sometimes need to eat alone if nobody else is hungry, but maybe the pie menu should have this eat together function when call to meal is used so that the sims who grab their serving first wait for the other sims before they start eating? It's sad to hardly ever see the sims eat together and they also still very often choose to stand up and eat or go and sit on someones bed. For example if a sim is doing his homework, someone else take their plate and go to sit beside that sim, for company I guess, but still, I mean why not eat at the table?
You are not the only one who has to deal with this, it's super annoying! Back in The Sims 3 and I think The Sims 2, I'd have at least 2 or 3 Sims get food out of the same fridge, they que up by the fridge, Sim 1 gets his food, Sim 2 gets his food, Sim 3 gets her food, all standing in a perfect orderly line and once each got their food, they went to sit down to enjoy their meal, Sims 4 comes along and this orderly system is ruined by a flawed design that should have been patched AGES AGO, I detest it that every time I have a few Sims get food at the same time and rather queuing up and waiting their turn, one gets their meal and the other idiots wave their hands and do their 'I can't Reach It' complaint, like seriously Sims 4, just have them que up and wait their turn, don't whine because someone else is using the fridge, sheesh!
