Pizza Delivery Issue?

Hi Loulouh,

I checked out the Pizza Delivery in my game, here's what I found: Pizza for me was always delivered within 30 minutes of placing the phone call with two exceptions: An order I placed at 1 A.M. never arrived (the order I placed at 12:15 A.M. arrived within 30 minutes). Another order I placed at 4 A.M. didn't arrive until 8 A.M.

I tried a new game and got the same results. All of the orders my SIM placed after 8 A.M., but before 1 A.M., always arrived within 30 minutes. Orders between 1 A.M. and 8 A.M. either never arrive or they arrive at 8 A.M.

If this isn't a bug they really should give some indication that this is not a 24-hour pizza service. I couldn't say for certain if my delivery is working as intended but it does work for me some of the time at least. I hope this helps you!

Thank you, I never thought that it might be the time of day which effects the delivery.

I was playing just now and ordered a pizza at 6pm... Another no show. This definitely makes me think there could be an issue :s I will keep an eye on for other forum posts about it.

Thanks for taking the time to experiment!

I'm also having an issue with receiving no pizza when ordering. I unfortunately don't remember the exact time my sim ordered it but I'm thinking it was around 8 or 9 PM. Hopefully this issue will be fixed soon, sorry I couldn't help further.

Is pizza delivery new? I tried looking for it before and never found it.

It's under services in your phone. It's not new.

I had problems receiving the pizza when it arrived. The delivery person eventually gave up and took the pie with them, though they said they left it. I watched them walk off the lot without setting it down.

I think pizza is glitchy.

I've had issues too. It seems to be a problem with the canadian pizza. I think that is it. I would have to try it out though

This is still a problem. My vampire Sims keep ordering pizzas, hoping to lure in the delivery person for a snack, but no one ever arrives. Doesn't matter the type of pizza or time of day.

^Pretty much like pizza delivery in real life. xD

Exactly! I don't even remember the last time I even bothered ordering pizza, since the Sim I used last to ever bother ordering his had his pizza come in 3-4 hrs later and since he was very hungry waiting on it he ate applesauce or something instead. I still took the pizza though but I didn't tip.

I figured out the issue for my Sims game. I aslo ordered a pizza and it never arrived.

I had the lot trait Private Property, I changed it and the pizza guy arrived with the pizza I ordered 2 days ago.

I think the Private Property trait stops anyone from going near the household, including services.

Oh, wow. I have been so frustrated with this problem for over a year. Thank you so much for the solution; my lot does have the private lot trait.

Funny enough, I've stopped having problems with the pizza delivery service since the major patch they released right before C&D this fall.

It takes my poor pc a bit of time to materialize the maid or other service NPCs. I am running on an older pc and am only meeting base game requirements, which makes the game really interesting at times. I was having problems with the Maid, Repairman, and Pizzaman showing up, and I discovered with Service NPCs I have to pause my game for them to actually appear on time. If I want my maid to show up right after 10am (when she's supposed to), I pause my game at that sim-time and poof, she appears after some hardcore processing from my tired computer. If I didn't hit pause she wouldn't show up at all, or show up around 3-4pm. Same with the repairman and pizza, if I don't see the deliveryman in a sim hour, I'll pause, the game will catch up, and he'll usually appear with pizza. I'm not sure what kind of pc you're running the game on, so this might not help, but I'd thought I'd throw it out there.
