Cook quality
« on: January 15, 2011, 10:37:08 AM »
I'm sure the answer must be here somewhere, but searching 10.000 topics for it is a bit to much for me. Sorry to be so lazy. :P
Anyway, I was wondering, the more your sim cooks, the better the quality of the food. Is it that way possible to make dishes which provide moodlets over 90 and beyond? My sim just can't beat the +75 actually.

Not that I'm aware of, Leto. The +75 from Ambrosia (Divine Meal) is the best I know of.

Leto, cooking same dish 10 times increase base quality of meal by one degree (from normal to nice, from nice to very nice). Top quality is perfect, but sometimes Sims get +75 amazing meal moodlet instead of +50 which is usual for perfect food (and it is not their favorite food that makes a difference).
If you drink nectar after meal, you'll get +5 on meal moodlet (and get +80 divine meal), with overemotional I got +97 or +98,  can't really remember, but haven't been able to go over 100.

That was maybe the thing that make me confused: drinking nectar after eating which have made me +97 indeed also, but without over emotional actually. The nectar was from a very, very high quality. Never thought it was the nectar what influenced it.

EDIT: But wait a minute. If you have eaten Ambrosia so you get the +75 moodlet for the upcoming 7 days and you will drink some high quality nectar so that moodlet changes to +97, will that be for the next 8 hours or also 7 days? And what are the ingredients of your nectar that they are give you a +97 in combination with food? I only hit 80, with nectar containing lifefruit and flame fruit, everything optimal created.

I had overemotional Sim who got 92 from amazing meal, plus 5 from nectar. Divine meal is +80 or +97 for whole week, as long as food moodlet last ;D
I have no idea what are ingredients in nectar, it was a while ago, and it was nectar find in China, very old and it was perfect quality.
I can't think of any other reason why would you have more than +75 from amazing/divine meal.

The order of eating seems to matter. My sim normally eat first, than drinks nectar. This time he first had drinked the nectar and than eat the Ambrosia. Same recipe on both food and drink as in my previous example, but this time the moodlet is +85, instead of +80.

When a sim drinks nectar he wil let you know how he thinks about it, by the message in the top right corner. Sometimes the text says something like: 'This tastes good with food.' Does that combination of nectar ingredients influences the mood of the food higher than other nectar does?
