[BH] Customers using espresso bar to make coffee at Small Biz

With a small biz set to customers drink coffee and employees set to serve drinks from espresso bar/counter, customers will randomly go behind the espresso bar and make their own beverages.  Employees will still use it as well and to intermittently serve customers until another customer occupies the bar making their own drink.  

Edit By Crinrict: Added pack tag to title. edited title to fit. Please add pack tags yourself. Thank you.

  • I'm using the expresso bar from Get Together. The Sims, who are customers, go behind the bar to make coffee but they don't complete the action before they end up with a cup of coffee. They put the metal cup on the expresso machine and exit the action. They drop the action. This prevents the employee from taking orders or completing coffee orders.

  • Yes, I've found this as well. If you use the coffee/tea bar that comes with the Businesses and Hobbies pack, then employees/customers will act the way you expect: employees mostly tend the bar, and customers order drinks without getting behind the bar or trying to make it themselves. As soon as you try to use the espresso bar, things get wacky. In fact, all the behaviors are similar to what sims to do with the regular cafe in the pack, which is why it is hands down the most annoying lot type. They walk behind the counters, but the employees aren't consistent. The tuning is bonkers, so they order every 10 seconds and basically overwhelm the barista with so many orders that they actually begin to drop them. It's like they fixed the tuning for the new object in the pack, but never bothered to go back and fix the espresso bars from older packs. Basically, if you want a functioning cafe as a small business, you have to use the new pack item, which really sucks because it means you can't use the espresso bar items that might look better with your decor.
