where is all this food coming from ?

Back behind the Commons there are a couple of BBQs and a picnic table. I had my Global Superstar grill up some steaks for his Dorm-mates to return the favor. Some time after that, I learned there were hours to the Commons and started having my students eat there. Especially nice that they could still celebrate WinterFest and have a grand meal, too. :)

I know this is an old thread, but I have only recently started playing DU and what annoys me about the free food is that I can't summon it myself when /I NEED/ it. My roomies get theirs from the balcony at the front of the UBrite dorm (I just pretend they are having it delivered by drone), not from the the toilet or anywhere else.

When I get a glut of food as inevitably happens, I'll have my sim grab an untouched plate (I might drag it into her locked room if needs be). If it is not close to class hours, my sim takes it down to the statue and uses it as an offering, this gives her that moodlet that improves her classes which I use for her to do her homework, though I'm not sure if it works that way, but I feel better for the effort if you know what I mean?

If it is close to class time, the sim will go down about an hour beforehand (they seem to leave the dorm 2hrs before class starts but I cancel that and send them to the statue first!) and make the offering. I can still walk them down to the lecture hall and have them 'juggle the soccer ball' or sing or something until class starts where I am sure the offering's moodlet works.

But yeah, I want my sim to be able to order the free food in as required. B)

So I went into build mode in all the UBrite Dorms and added a mini fridge and a microwave. I drag all the food into the fridge then I can select "get leftovers" and when food is scarce, I can make a sandwich or microwave meal. Stoves do not work in the dorms I have found.
