You're a hero. EA should be paying you for fixing their bologna. I'm sending loving and positive vibes your way as are so many others in the community. Losing a mom is one of the hardest things in life and you need to take all the time you need. Don't worry about us. We'll be here. Much love Carl.

Ill the the community paying me and my freedom to do what I want!. But I appreciate the sentiment!

@@CarlsSimGuides first ... big hug love loosing a parent really really sucks a**. But despite the problems with your health you just took a back seat and quietly got on with stuff. AND LOOK at it! ...I've worked catering .. granted never restaurant/divebar, but you hit it spot on. YOU delivered what this should have been and then you polished it till we never knew we needed it till we saw it!.. Thanks you Carl, thank you xx

[@CarlsSimGuides]

Happy to be back! So many weird bugs in Sims 4 that interfere with Dine Out. A lot of the pack code is fine it just needs rescue attempts when the game goes awry.

[@SubstituteRealitiesChannel]

I haven't touched Sim4 in ages but wow the improvements you made to "Dine out" is fantastic. That is how EA should have done in the bloody first place to be honest. That crowd control with sims not stealing other people's table food and etc is a much needed fix. And also, my condolences for your loss. I hope you are well and take care.

[@cs.abouttheatre]

I'm sorry for your loss! 😢 I know how it feels unfortunately. Wish you the best, good health and all! 💚

I look forward to trying it myself.

[@CarlsSimGuides]

As so many have said before me. You are an absolute legend. Thank you so much from the bottom of my and others hearts for making this community a better place. As someone who has also lost a mother, I understand the emotional whiplash you must be going through. Take as much time as you need to recover. Grief is exhausting. And please remember that you are not alone. You've got a whole community that will support you. Take as much time as you need to do what you want to do. That's all you can do when faced with grief.

Sorry you have had a tough year. You are amazing and I would have quit Sims many years ago if not for you. All your guides and then videos are informative and reliable.

This is so great! Thank you so much for all your hard work, I can’t wait to try it out!! 👏👏👏 I used to be a restaurant manager IRL and I LOVE all the capabilities you’ve added to Dine Out!!!

[@CarlsSimGuides]

I definitely still see potential in the pack's code and how you could take certain things a bit further, like buffets. I really like the player being able to do stuff. It feels more realistic to have a manager checking in on tables and maybe helping out with things here and there. Like, you could throw up another chef station and only hire one and help out when the main chef is slammed with orders.

[@plutonian_accountant]

​@CarlsSimGuides that would be awesome! You've made Dine Out soooo much more fun! Thanks you!
