Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Hire chefs
What happens when the bug occurs? When I open the restaurant The chefs I hire won't come to work and random chefs show up in their places, and they aren't counted as employees so I can't train them because it's a different chef every day. Plus I can't lock doors for everyone except employees.

    Hi @Summerxena,

    If you'd like to try to figure out which of your mods is the issue while you're waiting to hear back from @HugHug003 via DM's, there is a method.

    As tedious as this sounds, you can uninstall all your mods and manually add them back one at a time to see which one is causing the issue.

    From there, you can then reach out to the content creator to get some help with that particular mod if you'd like to continue using it.

    Do let us know in this thread if you find which mod was the issue for you in your reply as it might help out other members in future running into the same issue. We'll lock the thread after to limit further necroposting.

    Thanks,

  • It’s been a while but I had an outdated mod causing the issue. LittleMsSam’s hire certain sims mod. It’s been updated since though. Also, if that is the same mod causing your issue make sure that the chef you hire has cooking lvl 5 and mixology lvl 1 or else they won’t show up.

  • that worked! i used MCCC to update the add'l chef's cooking skill to 6, gourmet to 5, and mixology to 2 and she showed up! omgggg thanks @HugHug003!

  • i have this exact issue aswell except all my employees show up and one chef dosent which is very annoying
