The original catch all. General game help, banter, things you should probably put in the correct forum, This is the place.

Have Coffee With Me doesn't replace the interaction

Post by RoonyaSR » March 5th, 2019, 11:51 am

Hello!
So for some reason Ani's Have Coffee With Me doesn't replace the 'Serve Hot Beverages' interaction for me, instead I have two seemingly identical (?) interactions in the interaction menu when clicking on the serving tray. Is this a known issue or did I somehow install it wrong? :(

Thanks for any help on this matter!

You may want to try downloading the mod again, replace the copy you have, and clear (delete) the scriptCache file on the top level of your TS3 user game folder in Documents if you don't already do this upon adding or changing a mod file.

Regardless of what the commands on the coffee maker or tray are called, do either of the interactions on the tray (it has to really be on the tray, that often takes zooming in to hit the right spot and not be clicking on a coffee cup by accident) lead to a list of sims on the lot, including the active one, to call for coffee?

Thanks a lot for your speedy reply!
I reinstalled and cleared my cache as you suggested (I do this regularly anyway but just in case) and nothing changed. Here you can see the vanilla interaction on the right and ani's interaction on the left. Coffee trays created from ani's interaction have the Call For Coffee interaction working as intended, while coffee trays from the vanilla interaction (Serve Hot Beverages) of course do not.

:S Any thoughts on this?
Thanks again.

Oh, I misunderstood the original question then. The issue is that Ani's mod does not seem to be replacing the original command, but rather it's showing up alongside of it. The interactions you are getting on (Ani's) trays are what they should be.

I have icarus' barista beverages mod in play, so I never paid much attention to the menu clutter. Using that mod, our sims can serve Seasons and Uni beverages from home coffee makers so we have a dazzling array of choices -- my brain jumps right to Serve Coffee if the ordinary type with Ani's Call for Coffee option on the resulting tray is what I wanted. But given the duplicate looking choices, might you also have a coffee related mod from another source that is acting up a bit or needs to be updated?

This doesn't seem like an issue that would break anything in the meantime, although I can see where having the extra standard command could be distracting.

Yes, exactly this. It kind of bothered me since the mod FAQ states that it replaces the default interaction:
  • It will replace the "Serve Hot Beverages" interaction in the coffee machine with "Serve Coffee"...
so I was thinking something went wrong. But If this is actually how it's supposed to work, fair enough (though if a sim is evil/good/party animal, the two interactions are identically named...)

:yes:
