This is a pack of 5 mods that change the rules of managing dishes to wash.

No leftover washing mod
With this mod, on residential lots, in fraternities, in dormitories, and in apartments, Sims who aren't working in your business do not collect dishes that could be stored as leftovers.
In an unmodded game, Sims collect all dishes that someone has eaten from.

There are 2 versions of this mod:
  • all: works exactly as described above, without exceptions.
  • limited: a dish that could be stored as leftovers must have at least 20 remaining food points.
    For comparison, a freshly prepared typical dish has around 70.
Use only one version of this mod at a time.
Smarter dish collecting mod
With this mod, a Sim who's collecting dishes to wash:
  • reacts faster and smarter when you cancel the interaction.
    For example, if you cancel while a Sim is putting a dish on top of another, they simply put the dish down. In an unmodded game, they would then pick up all the dishes again and put them down somewhere else.
  • can choose dishes up to 15 tiles away if they're in the same room, or up to 10 tiles away if they're in a different room.
    In an unmodded game, dishes in other rooms are ignored even if they are close, and dishes far away in the same room can still be chosen.
  • chooses dishes more intelligently, by comparing their types, sizes, and distances to them.
    This way, more dishes can be stacked at once and fewer trips are needed to collect them all.

    In an unmodded game, the order in which dishes are collected depends on when they appeared.
  • if acts autonomously, follows the above logic to choose the first dish or stack of dishes.
    In an unmodded game, they can start with any dish, even a large one, even though there are smaller ones available.
  • after there are no more eligible dishes, can collect dishes near a dishwasher or trash bin they've chosen, within 10 tiles and in the same room.

Tuning
You can change the distance settings by editing the behavior constant of the file in SimPe.

Stack bowls on small plates mod
With this mod, small bowls (such as cereal bowls) can be stacked on small plates (the ones used by desserts, toast, and some other meals).
In an unmodded game, small bowls could be stacked on standard plates (such as those used by spaghetti) but not on smaller ones.

Stack up to 7 dishes mod
With this mod, a Sim who collects dishes to wash can stack up to 7 dishes – typically 1 serving platter and 6 smaller dishes.
In an unmodded game, the limit is 5.

No smelly plate licking mod
In an unmodded game, a Sim who is sloppy enough can lick empty plates clean as an alternative to washing dishes.
This mod disables the Lick Clean interaction for plates that smell bad.

  • dispose of washable dishes when there's no sink available.
  • wash dishes outside the apartment they are in.
