Cottage - More Delivery Services
🕑 Added 2021-08-12 10:32:02 +0000 UTCI like the new delivery service, I wanted more Maxis food and stuff to buy though... The food one's selection was especially poor... San Myshuno restaurants weren't happy about it, so I started messing with the delivery service... then I was unhappy about the garden shop not having one... then... this mod became something bigger.
So, first thing: this mod will conflict with everything adds stuff to the delivery phone interaction:
phone_pickServiceToHire_Deliveries
This is the only tuning inside the MAIN package, so if the new services aren't there you have a conflict.
WHAT'S INSIDE:
Garden Shop Delivery: Agatha and Agnes finally set up a delivery service for their shop. The delivery has the same stuff of the shop and one of the two will come in person to deliver the order.
Bakery Delivery: They sell most of the baked goods available with GTW, the selection of things you can order is different every day.
Ice Cream Delivery: Cool Kitchen Gelato right at your door! Luigi's shop has most of the ice cream available with the pack (the thumbnails suck though)
Camping Essentials: they sell potions and herbalist ingredients along with some camping equipment, this service requires the Zero_OR_PurchaseHerbalismIngredients_Shared from HERE, if you don't want that mod don't install the Interactions package
Pets Plus: You can buy treats, pets food and toys. Sims who completed the Friend of Animals aspiration from pets have a free delivery and a discount.
Boutique Du Vampires: they sell oddities (if you don't have Strangerville and Paranormal they'll sell very little), Sacred Candles among other things, but they're pricey and the selection is random... this by day...
By night, the shop changes and sells also blood for vampires, only vampires can ring by night, they enjoy a discount on the prices and on the delivery.
Based on New Orleans Boutique Du Vampyre
Questionable Quacks Emporium: only available for witches, ships wands, brooms, familiars and tomes. Magic Sages have free delivery and discount, also this is the fastest delivery so far.
--> IMPORTANT
Deliveries come with their own custom delivery bag

In order to make the bag system work, I had to use the objects instead of the recipes to generate the shops. Problem was most of the objects had a simoleon price of 0, so they had no price in the shops either. To add a simoleon cost, I had to override the catalog tuning for every object. Overrides are NOT required for the mod to work and are separated, they will conflict with mods overriding the same files. If you want the food to have a price you need them, if you have another mod that modifies the price of the OBJECT (not the recipe) it will add a price the same and you'll not need these files. This is valid also for the next part:
MORE FOOD FROM ZOOMERS!
As I said before, I was really unhappy by the food delivery missing the cultural food from City Living, so I added most of it along with most of Snowy Escape food. This will conflict with everything modifies Zoomers food selection and is not required for the mod to work. What I wrote about the food's prices above is valid for this too, I had to override the catalog to add a simoleon price.
--> IMPORTANT
The Magic and Vampire Delivery Services have an Objects package, these are REQUIRED, they're not an override, otherwise the delivery will not work.
OPTIONS:
The MAIN file has two versions:
24 - 7 : Keeps Maxis default, deliveries are always available regardless of time and day
Working Hours : The deliveries aren't always available

Different services have different working times including Maxis ones. Working hours are as follow:
Pizza - every day, from 8 AM to 3 AM
Groceries - from 8 AM to 6 PM from Monday to Saturday.
Garden - from 8 AM to 5 PM from Monday to Friday.
Camping -from 8 AM to 7 PM from Monday to Saturday.
Bakery - from 8 AM to 7 PM from Monday to Saturday.
Pets Plus - from 8 AM to 7 PM from Monday to Saturday.
Food - every day, from 8 AM to 11 PM.
Ice Cream- from 8 AM to 6 PM.
Questionable Quacks Emporium - 24/7
Boutique Du Vampires - 24-7 but...
By day it's a normal oddities shop:

By night it's a vampire exclusive shop that sells blood:


NPC FILTERS
This is needed to pick the sims for the new delivery services (apart from the garden one, that uses Agatha and Agnes). There are two version, one is required:
Standard version keeps the random generation of the delivery NPC
No Random doesn't generate random NPCs, you can assign the Ice Cream and Bakery delivery sim with Assign Npcs Jobs
IMPORTANT: for the Vampire delivery you need to assign 2 deliverer, one needs to be a vampire.
SIMPLE LIVING SNACKS
This is an updated and improved version of the mod SimpleLiving Grab Some Snack I posted before so if you had that, remove it!
Adds the ability to grab snacks when the simple living lot traits is on, and the ingredients requirement for them:

Also adds some stuff and a couple of custom ingredients to the grocery shop and conflicts with mods doing the same:

I didn't touch Maxis recipes so the custom ingredients and the ingredients I added to the snacks only work for the Simple Living lot trait.
Thanks for reading the description, your reward is here. As usual people who didn't read the description will end up with a fake file.
UNIFORM FOR FOOD DELIVERY
This can also be used as a standalone and just adds a uniform to Zoomers delivery sim

hello i still did everything in order and the mod doesn't show up in my game
Zero_
you can put them in subfolders
Spicy
for this mod/in general all your mods, can i put them in 1 sub folder named by your patreon or do i need them directly in the mod folder?
ImagineMae
That was smart, i read the comments then decided to read the description.
Zero_
I removed that mod so I don't really know... some files might be but i doubt the food delivery is compatible.
Nathan Jones
Is this compatible with Complete Cooking Overhaul?
Zero_
check for conflicts first.
SJ
Hey Zero, this mod is so great, thank you! The Bakery especially! But the Grocery delivery won't arrive, even though the order is placed. It says delivery on the way and remains greyed out. Should I separate the files, to mirror the structure of the unzipped file?
Gwen Jones
Not me reading the description twice and still managing to bypass the actual mod lol.
Zero_
it's by night, if you changed the days length in mccc it takes a couple of days to stabilize

@Zero Hello, I don't know if I did something wrong with installing, but I can see the red Boutique Du Vampires even at day time.
I can’t seem to find the option to assign the vampire delivery npc. I right click on the sims assign npc role, service role, and check all options but I don’t see the one for vampires.
SweetTea
Read the description of the mod on this Patreon post… It’s literally right there. Why would you even download a mod without a description in the first place? Surely, you can see all the text in the post. The txt file said that you didn’t read the description for a reason. Just /actually/ read it (don’t skim it, don’t skip around) and you’ll find what you need there. I guarantee you, the real download is not empty.

@Freyya there is nothing to read!! It’s Emty download it and see it for yourself!
Zero_
I need to hide them well so people don't just scroll to find the link then come back 5 minutes later with complaints about mods not working
Rowe J
I read the description and still missed it XD Had to go over it a few times... there's a saying where I am from. If it was a snake it would have bit me. LOL
Zero_
Maybe try reading the description of the mod.
Meriam Foreverbauerfan
There is nothing to download
Meriam Foreverbauerfan
But there is nothing in the description of i open it it’s empty
Zero_
Because this mod REALLY requires you to read and understand the description.
Meriam Foreverbauerfan
@Zero Well i get this when i unpacked it you didn't read the description of the mod,it's not okay,i'm sorry...
Zero_
working for me
Chelsea Williams
The bakery wasn't working for me either. Everything else showed up in my game though. I also got an LE error that I sent to you (I'm new to messaging through patreon so im not sure if I sent it correctly). I chose to have the random NPC package.
Cynel
i didnt use the assgin NPC
Zero_
did you assign the npc for the job manually? there was an error in the filter i fixed in the last update, you need to assign the npc again
Cynel
for some reason the bakery Delivery isn't working
Zero_
Maybe, if maxis added the Delivery Bag inventory to the potions... I'm currently trying to get a pets one to work
I was waiting for this! Can I make a recommendation? I would like the mod "Zero_OR_PurchaseHerbalismIngredients" to be integrated. Would a new herbalism delivery service be possible?
Zero_
Really?
Zero_
I haven't tested without
Diamond Rose
Do i need cottage living?
Meriam Foreverbauerfan
it's the wrong link i get something like university and if i unpacked it then it said you didn't read the description of the mod
