New Mod: Auto Bar Food Ordering
I was deep in a playtest session at the bar in Glimmerbrook (don't ask), and my active Sim was hungry, so he went to "grab chips" from the bartender for the thousandth time. I thought to myself, "He's got household funds and there's plenty of other things to eat at the bar, he should be able to order those dishes autonomously." And thus the seed for Auto Bar Food Ordering was planted.
The mod is simple: active and NPC Sims will now order available bar foods when on lots with a tended bar. The hunger threshold for active Sims is -25 (when the hunger bar turns yellow), while it is set to 30 for bar patrons. This is because townie patrons have their hunger motive artificially set to maximum when they spawn and can't reach the -25 level until 4 or more hours pass in game. Active Sims are charged for their orders, NPCs are not (this is how drink orders already work). If you Sim's household funds are under 500 Simoleons, they'll still opt for chips.
Anyway, if you want more variety of foods consumed automatically at bars, you can get ABFO now on CurseForge or on my master download post. Happy Simming!
