Hotel building problem (restaurant not working) SOLVED
« on: 2008 November 09, 11:18:56 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

When I make a hotel with a restaurant the result always looks like this:



Everything works fine except the restaurant podium sports the "under construction" sign, no host is spawned, and no waiter. The cook cooks lonely at his stove. What am I missing?

I've done this with a clean game of course. I've got the podium and the special stove which should be enough, shouldn't it? Trying to activate the podium in debug mode just drops out of queue.

PS: Eaxis' hotel restaurants work fine.

According to the Game Tip Encyclopaedia, a restaurant needs:
Quote
Restaurant Podium, Restaurant Stove, and at least 1 Dining Table with 1 Dining Chair placed properly for use, or one counter Island with 1 Barstool placed properly for use.

Seems to me that you've got that covered.
With OFB it's a problem that customers whine about there not being any counter to be seated at, but the set-up would still work.

Is the hotel itself functioning properly, and getting tourists (non-playable) booking in ok?

Yes Inge, everything works as it should except for the podium. It's like it can't detect the other restaurant items despite them being on the lot.

Could this be the result of an objects.package corruption?

From the difference in shade on the floor where the tables are, it looks like the podium is not actually in the same room as the tables and chairs.  Have you tried moving it into there?

Okay, mystery solved. Gwill had the right nose. You must have a counter island on the hotel lot for the host and waiter to be spawned. At least if you also have a bar on the lot.  Roll Eyes

PS: Inge you were right too. If there is no bar/counter islands on the lot the podium has to be in the same room as the dinner tables.  Grin

Be advised that two check-in desks is unnecessary and will result in extra NPC spam.
