Thanks Squinge!  My sims on community lots are actually interacting with each other instead of spending all their time lining-up to eat!

You made a very happy girl here!  A must have if you ask me.

Oh mu goodness thank you!!!

I was going to request something like this.  I've noticed that practically ALL the townies & downtownies in my game are totally fat, as a result of being sent to the podium over & over again (sometimes 3 or 4 times in a row).  The annoying thing is, the game doesn't change them so they don't register as being fat, plus they have no way of becoming slimmer unless they happen to visit a lot with exercise equipment.  I tend to teleport them in, stick them on an exercise machine, then take them straight off again so they register as fat - how come the game doesn't do this automatically?

Even worse is when my own playables get fat without me noticing (if I notice, I do something about it!), especially when they've worked hard to get fit for their jobs or whatever.  This will be VERY useful in my game, so thanks very much.

Actually no, I tried it to make sure it would not affect restaurant businesses too much.  It worked fine, they will line-up less that is true but only difference you will see is instead of ordering 3 times during the same visit sims will order once or twice if they stay long enough and get hungry again.

Very well, it's a real "non-awesome first class" hack now.

sorry i installed this hoping to end my sims greed for food but sadly it made not a shred of difference i still had sims having 3 and 4 meals in a row

And not sure why anymore i put anything else in a community lot as they never use the stuff

[Squinge]

sorry i installed

You may have another mod conflicting with this one, but the conflict utility doesn't detect mods that conflict with this one.
 
edit: Have you patched your game?

[Celestra]

yes my game is patched and i installed this mod after that

What other mods do you use that have anything to do with the restaurants? did you ever use the Less attractive podiums posted at mts2? if so did you delete it because that one will conflict with this one.

I've tested a little this mod and,as I supposed in my previous post here, something was gone wrong.
I have a owner of a little restaurant with also bar and caffetteria.
Well, no more sims go to the podium, no one go to eat, all are permanently near the bar to drink juices and coffee.

Then, I tried to "hunger" them using Paladin's hungernator, with various settings and "all" leave immediatly the lot to go home because they was too hungry! Doh! (I can see their bubbles with "food emergency" icon).

Mysteries of the sims.
