Not sure if this is exactly the same issue but I have a very similar and frustrating problem that is currently making my restaurant borderline unplayable. The waiters can't seem to remove plates from tables, or if they do, they will immediately snap to t-poses and the plates fall down by their feet. If more than one person is carrying a dish at once, everyone who is holding one snaps to a t-pose.

The plates get stacked up on the restaurant tables and I can't click and drag them to a dishwasher, trashcan, or even move them off the tables. The host still seats sims at the messy tables. The only time the dishes are able to be washed is after the restaurant closes down for the evening, then I spend an extra 2-3 hours after that picking up all the dishes.

Weirdly, I can send my sim's husband to the restaurant and he'll be able to pick up the stacks of dishes without problems, but he can only pick up one dish or stack at a time instead of going around and collecting all of them. My sim owns L'attente bistro.

Hi @CinnamonToastBun

are you using any mods in your game or do you have any lastException files you could provide ?

    Hey @crinrict,

    I only use MCCC, and I tested a restaurant in a clean vanilla game (after taking it out) and was still experiencing the issue. I have several LE files but I don't know if any of them are related to this happening at all, honestly. The last one I got was something save-related and definitely had nothing to do with running a restaurant since I was playing an entirely different household when it happened.

    I already sent over the same save files to SimGuru Icarus for something else restaurant-related and mentioned this issue as well. 🙂

      Easiest to find out about LE is to delete them all, then repro the error and see if you have new ones.

        And here's yet another issue my game is having. I will try ditching the dishwasher!
