Just in time for summer! I made the wonderful conversion by Crisps&Kerosene autonomous for my game and got permission to share with you. Thanks, C&K!
Here it is, no changes other than autonomy. It advertises pretty high, so sims like snocones quite a bit, but they will still use the drink machines and hot dog grills, as well. Replace the original MACHINE file with this one, keep all your recolors and the FOOD file.
In the interest of SimScience, I tried for quite a while to adjust the animation on this. They use the pizza animation which just looks odd, but it occurred to me that the drink animation would look pretty good. After my tests resulted in weird sim contortions and loud glugging sounds, I decided that working with animations would go on the “later” list. I’ve dabbled in most aspects of the game and have learned soooo much, but, for me, animations are the “last frontier.” At some point, I’ll be back to fix this. 🙂
