Please allow me to apologize for the horrible substandard abomination I inflicted upon you all before. There was little - if any - excuse for the poor performance of version 1.3. Now I offer you version 1.4, which will actually do as I promise you here.
There are multiple mods out there that allow for autonomous storing of leftovers. Three of them I know of: dizzy, AncientHighway, and MogHughson each have made their own versions. They all missed something, though...
This new mod (version 1.4) is smaller than all the others, and it allows autonomous storage of leftovers, but there are some twists:
1. Sitting sims will NOT get up to autonomously store leftovers or clean up dishes. EVER!
2. On ANY lot where a Dorm Cook works (either real dorms, or fakes with Inge Jones' ijStoveNPCalwaysPatch from Simlogical, for example), sims will NEVER autonomously store leftovers.
3. On ANY lot where a Dorm Cook works (as above), dishes can ONLY be autonomously cleaned up, if they're NOT in the cafeteria.
4. On any other residential lot, sims will NEVER autonomously clean up a dish that could be stored as leftovers, UNLESS they're already collecting dishes to clean up, in which case they may also pick up leftovers.
5. When cleaning up, sims will now collect 7 dishes maximum, in stead of 5 (one serving platter plus the six food dishes it should provide by default).
6. Sloppy sims and children may autonomously lick plates clean.
There's two versions of the mod in this archive:
BO - Food Dish Autonomy.package : This is the standard version, do NOT use this if you have MogHughson's Simply Leftovers, because they will clash. This clash can not be resolved. The last mod to load will control how leftovers are handled. (see LOAD ORDER)
BO - Food Dish Autonomy-MogH.package: This is the alternative version, designed for use WITH MogHughson's Simply Leftovers. Do NOT use this if you don't have MogHughson's mod. HCDU *will* report a conflict, but this is an intentional LOAD ORDER issue! The latest version of Mog's mod (dated september 2010) *must* be present, and it *must* load *before* mine!
(Note: in previous versions, the 'MogH' version was named differently. Be sure to remove the old version, when you start using this new one)
Of course, you use only *one* of these two package files. Loading both is nonsense, and can only result in problems!
Update, August 3rd, 2011: As was recently pointed out, a bug was present in the MogH-compatible version. Sims on residential lots would clean up a freshly made meal, and call it "put away leftovers as single plates". This is not what I had in mind! Version 1.5 now addresses that issue!
If you're not using MogHughson's Simply Leftovers, you do NOT need to redownload yet, although I would advise you to (in case you change your mind later).
I've used quite a few mods by others, thus taking FROM the community. With the work that *I* create, I'm hoping to give something back TO the community.
Do with my work whatever the &#$% you like. If you re-use, edit and republish my work, I consider it a compliment. Especially if you let me know about it, and mention me in the credits.
But, although I would *appreciate* the note and the credits, if you choose to be a dick and act as if YOU created my mods, there's not a whole lot I can do to stop you, so I won't even TRY.
Enjoy.
