[FIXED] Poor Quality Tea

Still need you to test without any mods at all.

Just tested with mods folder completely out and it's still poor quality. 

I've noticed this happening with several households, I use the tea makers pretty frequently. I also notice that when it occurs, the tea maker's value drops to $5, from the more standard amount for selling a used tea maker. I usually just sell it, and buy another for full price, but it invariably happens again.

me too. i noticed a few months ago, actually... i never thought to write about it here.

Hm. I can't seem to duplicate this in my save

Few questions

• Does it matter which tea ?
• Is it every tea you make or just every ... tea ?
• What's your cooking skills (don't think that's connected to tea ?)
• Did you ever have mods/cc on the save you have the issue ?
• Does the issue also occur if you start a brand new save ?

1. Doesn't matter which tea we make, it's all poor quality. 

2. It's every time the make tea. Every pot.

3. My main sim has Maxed cooking, and 7 Gourmet cooking and she still gets poor tea. 

4. Yes, I've had CC in this game, but none of my CC relates to tea or coffee flavor or anything that even seems it could be related. 

5. I'll start a new save soon as I can and test it. 

1. no, it's every kind of tea.

2. each and every time any Sim makes a pot of tea, and every single cup.

3. doesn't matter, could be 1 or 10. i've tried all levels.

4. when i first noticed, i had no mods at all on that save, and had never used.

5. happens with every save, brand new or existing. i will try again with another one later.

update: today i placed the teapot in a community lot (The Blue Velvet) and directed my Sim to brew a pot. the quality was "normal". trying to sell it shows it's worth 275 simoleons.

I have added this with a bit of a question mark.

I don't see it in my own game but there's a few people reporting this so I'm adding. 

Finally got to do a bit of testing. In my main save, the tea pot will make maybe one normal pot of tea upon first purchase and then it's poor quality regardless of cooking skills. 

I tried in a fresh save, and the tea pot will make normal tea for about 2-3 sim days, then it'll start making poor quality, again, regardless of cooking skills. So I went to sell it and it's as the other simmer said, the pot sells for $5. I bought a new pot, again, 2-3 of normal tea, then the value drops and the quality goes to poor. 

It seems that in my main save, the pot loses value to poor quality nearly instantly, where as in fresh save, it happens after two or three days. 

I still think this is a bug. No way should a tea pot lose so much value (to $5) that tea quality drops and stays drops. Also, the upgrades do nothing, which I think should eliminate the issue all together when fully upgraded. 

I think this still needs to be fixed, otherwise the tea pots are pretty useless as buying a new tea pot every 3 days will get expensive.
