Yes, there were two separate issues:
- NPCs Sims (outside your party) weren't pushed to eat their meals so they just never ate
- Active Sims and everyone in your party don't finish eating when they drink. Drinks stopped them from eating. This also happen on your own lot if you eat and drink at the same time
Can't say what the current status is, maybe it all shifted to something else.
The link you sent me, yes, that’s the exact same problem I’m having. I’ve tried throwing away the food and starting over and got the same result. I’ve play tested with cc and without cc. I do have the vanilla save still with the problem existing. If you would like me to send it, I can.
Also, yes, I did notice back when I did have my sims drink and eat at the same time, they would finish the drink first and then cancel the meal. With this current issue, I haven’t even gone to a restaurant yet to see if it matters if my Sims ability to eat fully is affected on them or not. I want to assume that it’s probably the case.
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@thecharsims Sure, send along. Won't have time till tomorrow though to test
- thecharsims5 years agoNew Ace@crinrict I was going to send my save to you but I don't know if it now matters because for some stroke of luck, I guess, the glitch fixed itself for the time being. After I went back and played my vanilla save, my sims were eating somewhat normally again. I can still send you my save if you want. I just wasn't sure if you would need it now. I'll leave that up to you on what you want me to do regarding that.
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@thecharsims I think I'm going to move this to tech and you come back if you have further issues with this (or use the other threads I linked in this thread before)
I do think your issue is related to that. - thecharsims5 years agoNew Ace@crinrict I see the issue in other households. It's a weird glitch that happens off and on apparently but there is still the issue with the food not having an expiration or spoiled timer. Once it goes in the fridge and I save and come back, the food is just nonperishable. I feel like that also has something to do with the sims not eating entirely.

@thecharsims That's a bug with the new pack.
Thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Expire-Date-on-food-vanishes-when-put-in-fridge/td-p/9178858
I think there's currently multiple bugs: Drinking and eating as before + the timer thing causing multiple issues.

- thecharsims5 years agoNew Ace@crinrict Ohh, ok. Do you know if they are working on a patch for all of this? It's so frustrating.

@thecharsims I don't know what they're fixing when, no.
