[MOD RELATED] Chef Station is Bugged

Every restaurant I have in game (both owned and unowned) has a chef that does not do his or her job. I have finally narrowed it down to the chef station being the culprit. The problem is that once the chef arrives to "set up" his station, it gets stuck. This causes the chef to walk away and revert back into a regular sim. Instead of the "Manage" interaction you are supposed to have with restaurant employees, you end up with the regular social interactions.

I have observed this behavior with and without mods in the game. I have also repaired the game and still have issues.

Needless to say, without the chef, the restaurants are completely non functional. Please fix ASAP!

    I actually found the culprit. Scumbumbo's Door Locks mod was causing the glitch. I had it hidden inside my CAS CC sub folder and once I deleted it, the game went back to normal.

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    Please try on a vanilla game without putting everything back first.

    The chef i hired in my restaurant won't cook. I've tried hiring a new chef, deleting the chef table, and even going to other restaurants that my sim doesn't own, but their chefs won't cook either. Please help me fix this bug, this game pack is completely unplayable without it...
