Custom Drink Interactions (Update 22nd September 2024)

These are custom interactions + some extras that are used to make custom Drinks, plus a script that adds the interactions to various bars in game. They were originally posted by icemunmun in this upload but we moved them over to the group account to be able to maintain them better.

Custom Bar Drinks by icemunmun

Release Notes:


Update 22nd September 2024, : Version 5-9-6


- Added new drink resources - Craft Beer






Installation:

• If you update from a icemunmun version, make sure you remove the old files( icemunmun_CustomDrinkScript.ts4script and Bar_CustomDrinks_Interaction.package )! They are renamed now, so will not overwrite automatically.
• Make sure script mods are allowed in the game setting.
• Unzip the zip and put BOTH .package and .ts4script files in your /Mods folder.
• The ts4script file can go only one layer deep with folders by default. In other words, it should be either,
  
  Code:

  \Sims 4\Mods\mtsfoodgroup_drinks-custom-interactions.ts4script, or
  \Sims 4\Mods\Subfolder\mtsfoodgroup_drinks-custom-interactions.ts4script
  

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: My game version is up to date, but the [xxx Custom Drinks] interaction still won't show up from bars/fridges.
A: Have you allowed script mods in the game setting?
A: Is your Custom Food Interaction also the latest version?
A: Are BOTH .package and .ts4script files installed?
A: Is your .ts4script in the right place? Please read the Installation section for detailed information.
A: Make sure you didn't accidentally install duplicated files in different folders.

Q2: All interactions show up in game, but when I click the interactions there is no drink or only certain drinks in the selection menu.
A: This post only provides the scripts that enable custom drinks to show up in game. You need to get the actual drinks meshes and their crafting recipes from other posts. Browse the #Custom Drink tag to get custom recipes.
A: Each recipe requires certain mixology level. If your sim doesn't have enough skill, some recipes won't appear!

Q3: Mod Conflict Detector says this mod conflicts with something. Should I be worried?
A: The Conflict Detector is an useful tool, but it can't be always right. Due to the way it detects conflicts, there are chances the tool lists an okay mod as broken or conflicted or corrupted. We'd say you don't have to be much worried about the error especially when the "conflicts" are between the mods by Foodgroup or its members. Some "conflicts " are even intended and we are fully aware of them.

Q4: Some drinks are stuck in inventory and I can't get rid of them.
A: This is a known EA issue, not something caused by custom drinks. To fix this glitch, you can simply reset your sim or have the sim travel to another lot.

Q5: The script isn't translated in my language. Can I still use the script?
A: Yes, you can. Localization doesn't have to do with how the script works. English menu will appear if the interaction menus haven't translated in your language yet.

We have a couple of issues with directly importing string files, so would rather manually type them. Thank you!

How to Use:

This mod adds the following two interaction to the professional bars in game :

1. Make Custom Drinks



2. Buy Custom Drinks (The drink will be found in your inventory after buying.)




Miscellaneous

Compatibility:

• Base Game Compatible, although certain EP/GP/SP/CC are required for the certain interactions to work.
• Whether or not the recipes are available on custom stoves/fridges depends on what object tuning those are using ‒ if you find one where it doesn’t work, post a link and we can add its ID to the script.
• Should not conflict with any other mods as a script has been used. However the autonomous drink making function may not work properly with autonomy suppressing mods.
