Butler: Difference between revisions

'''[[Bridgeport]] butlers'''

*In ''The Sims 3: Late Night'' expansion pack, a common problem is that, if the butler makes food, the entire household and guests will stop their current actions to eat—and butlers may cook autonomously. If there is a small kitchen area and a large family or many guests the area will become crammed. This is why it is a good idea to have parties in between breakfast and lunch, lunch and dinner, or dinner and breakfast. Another alternative is to make the kitchen quarters larger. This issue, however, was partially fixed later on with a patch that removed the Butler's ability to cook autonomously.

*The Butler can often be seen reading a book titled "How to serve and not be served."

*In ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' expansion pack, the butler references many stereotypes surrounding butlers in popular culture. In one tidbit of advice, the butler will state that "there is an urgent message from the commissioner" before realizing their mistake and state that the message was received on the "wrong frequency". This is a reference to ''Batman'''s Alfred Pennyworth. In another, the butler states that it is not always the butler who "did it"; a reference to a cliché in murder mysteries.

*In ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' expansion pack, common community stories shows that butlers make the game have more drama by flirting with the Sim's family members/household. This is a common problem encountered for married couples which leads to break up the entire family. Firing them is sometimes the solution if the relationship between the Sim's family member and the butler isn't too high enough, another solution that is more manual and needs more reactions from the player is to stop flirting interactions between the two Sims, this one keeps the butler but definitely stop flirts.{{confirm}}

*In ''The Sims 3: Into the Future'', the butler in [[Oasis Landing]] is most likely a [[Plumbot]]. Their Plumbot trait chips can be modified even though they are not part of the player's household. The butler-plumbots come with unique tuxedo-styled body parts, which can only be obtained during normal gameplay by modding them in the Plumbot creation workbench.

*Butlers still care for babies even if they're told not to "Attend for Minors". Issues: in The Sims 4 The Butler may eat your meal.
