Re: [CoL] Ice Cream and Popcorn recipes don't require ingredients with Simple Living

The Kava Bowl, which lists kava as an optional ingredient, is also not affected by the lot challenge.

    Not sure if reviving the thread or creating a new one is preferred, but this issue is made more apparent with the addition of home chef hustle, and the mod to fix it is now broken.

    Yeah, the issue is definitely much more prominent due to the updates for the ice cream machine and the whole recipe overhaul, yet still no milk for ice cream. It is truly disappointing how inconsistent everything is

    @LunarBritney Ice Cream is the one thing I don't want them to add regular milk ingredients for, as I can imagine my vegan sims used plant milk.

    Unless the team could fix it to make it optional to use either regular milk or plant milk.

    Hello @GiardiniDiMarzo@LunarBritney,

    If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), would you be willing to share your save file(s)?

    If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file.

    Instructions here: http://x.ea.com/74420

    Thanks!

    EDIT: There was a misunderstanding.  We no longer need saves.  Thank you.

    This isn't a save-specific issue. The recipes just don't have ingredients assigned to them in the game code as they should've been, because the whole point of the lot challenge is to not allow players to make food without having the required ingredients. Right now, ice cream, popcorn (don't know how that one is going to get fixed considering there is no actual corn plants in the game), kava bowls, hot pots, firepits, and the cupcake machine (the Get to Work baked goods recipes) do not use any ingredients and just take simoleans away, which goes against the entire design of Simple Living lot challenge.

    @TheSimsDirect Hiya! I understand there was a misunderstanding regarding saves. Which you have corrected, but is it being treated as a bug on maxis’ end.If so this needs to be moved to the bug forum.

    @GiardiniDiMarzo @LunarBritney I know this isnt cooking but. I think the pumpkin carving machine should require home grown pumkins if simple living is on (they cant be used as of now) 

    Obviously orange pumpkins only allowed on orange carvings, green and green, white and white. Pale yellow is a odd ball so not sure. Perhaps orange OR white?

    Hello.

    Just to clarify - we are currently not treating this as a bug.
