Fridge Leftovers Reworked (Updated 12/14/20)

by LazyDuchess Posted 31st Oct 2020 at 3:07 PM - Updated 14th Dec 2020 at 6:48 PM by LazyDuchess : 12/14/2020 update
18 Comments / replies (Who?) - 13 Feedback Posts, 5 Thanks Posts
12/14/20 Update: Attempt to fix errors thrown when cleaning up spoiled leftovers.
12/11/20 Update: Attempt to fix in-world plates occasionally getting stacked on the spoiled dishes when cleaning up spoiled leftovers.
11/03/20 Update: As Nopke suggested, made the clean up spoiled leftovers interaction show the actual stacked dishes you had in your fridge. Also updated the interaction name.

This mod attempts to bring the leftovers system found in TS2 more in line with those from TS3 and TS4. Keep in mind that any leftovers you already had in your save will get wiped upon loading with this mod for the first time.

Features
  • Leftovers now spoil over time while they are in the fridge, although at a slower rate (72 hours, or 3 days, by default)
  • You can't keep an unlimited amount of leftovers in the fridge anymore, now capped at 5 by default.
  • Spoiled leftovers take up space, so you should get rid of them with the new "Clean Up Spoiled Food" fridge interaction.
  • Should work on all fridges that have the Leftovers feature, including CC ones.

Conflicts
Will clash with any mod that replaces the following resources:
TypeNameInstanceIDGroupID
BHAVInteraction - Store LeftOvers0x000020950x7F8834C8
BHAVInteraction - Store LeftOvers TEST0x000020960x7F8834C8
BHAVInteraction - Get Leftovers0x0000208B0x7F8834C8
BHAVInteraction - Get Leftovers TEST0x0000208C0x7F8834C8
STR#MakeAction strings0x0000012E0x7F9A5330

Due to some limitations with managing inventories via SimAntics, it will also clash with any mod that add leftovers to the fridge on their own.
You will need Seasons or higher.

Tuning
  • You can change how long leftovers take to spoil by modifying the BCON entry in "ld_leftovers_tracker.package" with SimPe.
  • You can change how many leftovers you can keep in the fridge at once and the maximum amount of stacked spoiled dishes when cleaning up in "ld_leftovers.package".

Troubleshooting
Reloading the lot should get rid of any bugged leftovers, but please, let me know (with logs) if you get errors!

I really like this idea but… Why spoiled food is a separate object, not just the original food with spoiled state?
Trying to speak English well.

That's because I hadn't really looked into how to stack plates via bhav, but I should, it would def make more sense lol.

A clever mod that I'm honestly surprised hasn't been made before. Unfortunately, I fear it may conflict with a mod I use that allows you to split serving platters into single plates when storing them as leftovers.

I have that mod too... I'm not sure if the two mods will conflict with each other

Assuming you mean Simply Leftovers, they will unfortunately, as they override the same behaviours.

I've been using Simple Leftovers forever. And I really like it. But this idea of yours is simply awesome - leftovers finally will make sense! - so I'm ready to say goodbye to Simple Leftovers as they conflict.
And I'm grateful you included indications as how to customize it btw. Five dishes is too little for some of my families (because my family parents pixels like batch cooking, hehe) so I'm giving them fifteen. As they will now spoil, I'm sure they'll be careful and not store more than they can use up within three days!

Thank you so much for this! You've saved me. I've been going through a rather embarrassingly OCD rigmarole of manually cleaning out all the leftovers from my sims' fridges when they've been in there too long. I can't wait to never do that again!

Hello Lazy Duchess! First, thanks for your amazing mods. The Reworked Fridge Leftovers one and the Auto Engagement/Breakup, I love these kind of mods!! However, I maybe found a bug but I'm not sure if it's one. I have pictures for you to illustrate (https://imgur.com/a/rfkpJId ; btw sorry it's in French, I translated your mod! "Prendre les restes" = "Get Leftovers" and "Nettoyer la nourriture gâtée" = "Clean Up Spoiled Leftovers").

- So on my fridge, I have both the options "Get Leftovers" and "Clean Up Spoiled Leftovers" (Picture 1).
- There is only one leftover in the fridge, I take it so now it's on the counter (Picture 2).
- Now, when I click "Clean Up Spoiled Leftovers", the plate on the counter dispears to be with the other spoiled food (Picture 3).

I don't think it is supposed to do that?

Got that one today myself as well, thank you for reporting. I'll look into what could be causing these errors and try to push a proper fix.

I believe the problem related to spoiled dishes getting deleted in ways out of my control. I've added some object verification functions so it should be okay now, hopefully, tested it and the errors don't pop up anymore.

First off, thank you for this mod. I came across a weird error/bug while playtesting. This happened only in apartments: when playing for a bit all the phones in the apartment will get unuseable (no error messages, just not usable anymore, the telephone receiver is missing!), until I buy a new one or I reset it with testingcheats. This bug applies to all phones and like I said only on apartment lots. I took your mod out and the problem was solved, so your mod has some sort of involvement with phones on apartment lots, I guess.
Just want to let u know this
