That's awesome. This will be 20% cooler than a swarm of sims and some are complaining, because they didn't get the meal. ;)

I'm done this is incredible... Thank You :)

Also you know this slower eating mod would be wonderful with this mod! I haven't test it out yet, but I know its going to be a great combination.

Have this in sims 2 so I am hoping it works as well or better in 3.

Really great idea, haven't loaded this up yet, but I'm certain it'll work just fine. Much better than just the regular "call to meal" option.

Thank you! Family meals are back on in my sim world! This mod is awesome, it is like the action the sims took in 2 when serving a meal, but way better because I can choose who I want to call to the meal and serve them all together instead of just placing meals randomly around the house or having a starving swarm of sims that forget how to walk around stuff like in 3. Thanks again :)

Great mod. Now sims can sit together and eat.

Now if only sims actually talked when eating...

Thank you very much! I will enjoy this mod in my game, it agitated me that sims don't set the table! (then again, neither do my parents. :3) My sims would all eat at weird periods of time, not eating what they were supposed to be eating! Like juice boxes. Seriously? xD I wish someone makes a mod for tht, too.

Dearest Icarus,Thank you so much for the mod. I tried it and it works like a charm,i absolutely love love love it that my sims can eat peacefully and as a family now without screaming at each other -_- Now all my simmies get food and you were right! they do access the table/food more easily than before <3

Great idea, great mod..

But I hate to be the one who says "Not quite working correctly".

Have you tested this mod with vampire teens?

I have an odd issue relating to them. I can select various family members using a teen and the menu, the teen will place the plates no problem so far.. but then! No teens get called! The plates are there, but the teens don't get called, and clicking on the plates only shows two options "Put away left overs" or "clean up". The teens cannot eat. Oddly, adults get called just fine.

Same situation if the adult calls them, teens do not get called.

Has anyone else seen this?

Was the meal being served either Mac And Cheese, Autumn Salad, or Waffles? Because for some reason or another EA blocked teens and children from eating single servings of these recipes even though they are not blocked from eating them if they had grabbed the plate or bowl from a group serving the usual way. This behavior has nothing to do with this mod though, just tried laying out SINGLE servings of Autumn Salad and Mac And Cheese in a game WITHOUT any mods and the Eat interaction doesn't appear for child and teen sims like you've noticed.

I suppose I could make the mod ignore the restriction to get around it though it would be much more straightforward and preferable to fix it externally by editing the RecipeMasterList XML and removing the "AdultOnly" line for the above mentioned recipes since it is really an absurd restriction. Thanks for the report.
