Thanks for the 3 star version! It's a good compromise.

Now if we only had a mod that sim "Dates" will finish their food if you order them a drink. Bienchen had one but she's long since been on hiatis. Then everything would be perfect. Thanks for this, though. Appreciated.

Hey spgm, quick thought, maybe you should rename this mod as it essentially does more than just 5 stars, it fixes the restaurant gameplay entirely. Also if you need a tester feel free to ping me.

Hey hafprice,

I was running a theme called Maxed lol. Just finished my Maxed Dual Task retail mod

First I'd like to thank you for this mod, I love restaurants and it's a shame EA don't maintenance them. In the past I had a mod that adds an extra host, but it was years ago and the creator didn't update it so I had to delete it. However in my saved file the extra host still exists and works.
Regarding your mod, I read a lot about extra host package, remove host script and a cheat and tbh I'm lost. Considering I like having an extra host, do I need to do something about bc I'm confused.

HI gagasluxury

If you have install the extra host package and want to remove it you type the command in the cheat window removehost
To reset the perks if you want later to add the host you type in the cheat window resethost

Just a note I personally remove all the extra host i have in all the restaurants because if you removehost on one restaurant and have another extra host in another restaurant it will cause an error so best to fire all the extra host you have before running removehost, then if you want to add it back later run restethost so the perk will be reset

What bits are you confused on?

Thank you for your answer, to be more specific-
Even before using your mod, my saved file game had an extra host as I mentioned but deleted the mod, yet the host is still fully working so I don't know if that's a problem (repair game didn't remove it)

Currently I installed this mod's newest version and in my folder I have the extrahost.package, host.package & removehost.script. I don't want to remove my extra host, I don't understand the logic behind it, nor I don't want to reset the restaurant perks. So in conclusion which action should I take? Do I have to remove my extra host first by cheat before making it playable (which it already is..)? Do I need to keep all these 3 files? I can't tell if I'm doing it wrong or not.

Sorry if it was all over the place..

Ok, so if you still have the host from before and there was no problem just leave it in there, only use the removehost script if you want to remove, also no need to reset the perks. I am suprised when you deleted the mod and click on the staff tab it should have displayed an error

The scripts are just to remove it from the game and put it back to original settings so no error will occur

Great thank you for the explanation. I do want to verify if perhaps one of my hosts dies, should I need to apply the cheat before hiring a new one?

Great work!

OK so open you saved game, click on the hire staff tab and see if it shows up an error, if it dose dont save

Updated version 4 so now the larger groups will all get their food at the same time

Updated for patch 1.68

Hi, Thanks for this amazing mod! makes the game so much better.
The extra host is not showing up. I hired 1 but he is just not showing up at all. any Idea why?

Hi, can you please give me some more details, which packaged did you use, separated package or which combined one, any other restaurant mods you have installed

Thanks for the reply.

I am Using
MaxedRestaurant5StarV4_RestaurantAndPricing
MaxedRestaurantV4_ExtraHost
MaxedRestaurantV4_ExtraStaffHours
MaxedRestaurantV4_Host
MaxedRestaurantV4_RestaurantGroup4
MaxedRestaurantV4_RestaurantZoneDirectorGroup4_5_6
MaxSkilledStaff
removehost

I also used the MCCC to make it 40 sim on lot.
The host extra showed up on my last test but one of the Waiters didnt... If there is no known fix then im just going to remove the waiter.

Oh yes I have had that happen before its common, can you try for me the following:

Open the restaurant and if the customers arrive and the extra host has not turned up, pause the game, close the restaurant and reopen, unpause

how do you add another host

Thank you for your amazing mod so much! Is this by any chance compatible with patch 1.69? Thanks again!

Yes it is
