Resturanttables Resturant
Based on the Sims 2: Nightlife tables.

These tables are hacked to encourage sims to eat together at buffet-style resturants or parties. For best results, try to make sure there aren't unhacked tables too near your resturant, or sims may just select those instead. This works by having a sim reserve a table. Sims can dine at the table based on their relationship to the sim who holds the reservation. Reservations expire based on the number of times a sim sits down to eat at the table. The more a table is used, the longer the reservation stays open. A sim can dine at the table if...
- The sim looking for a place to eat is part of the same family/household,
- The sim looking to eat is on a date or part of a 'group' with the sim that holds the reservaton (uses the 'autofollow'),
- The sim that holds the reservation is on a date or part of a group that holds the reservation ('uses autofollow').
- The sim is friends or in love with the sim who holds the reservation.
In order to use this you must reserve tables for your sims that you can control. If you do not reserve ample seating they will select an unhacked table or attempt to eat standing up. You can select the table by clicking it. You can also cancel any reservation this way, even if it belongs to a sim you can't control.
Additionally, there's some situations where sims struggle to get plates off the table. For this reason, if a plate is on the table for about two hours after the reservation expires the table will 'self-bus' when used away from home, and will dump the plates on the floor when used at home so that plates are not just stuck forever, forcing the player to move them by hand.
The tables work with the Downtown / Hot Date dining podiums, but they ignore the reservations for compatibility.
Known bug... There's some situations where a sim might dine at a table without a reservation if the reservation expires before they are able to sit down, but after they are permitted to use the table. However, this is a small inconvience and seems fairly rare so I'm not too concerned with it as the general idea of getting sims to eat together still works.
