This problem happens in all of my saves. The mixologist is not tending the bar, at least half the times they don't.

What they do is playing darts, chat, anything but working, leaving the clients starving for drinks or food.
The last time I've played I thought to test something. I switched to the mixologist sim, whom I had add to the lot as a resident using master controller, in order to command him to work so my sim can eat.
Then what I saw was that the "moonlight as a mixologist" option was gray with this message appearing "customers are still recovering from your Sim's last batch of drinks. Give it some time"!! I guess this error is why my mixologists are not tending the bar.

What I did next was, first I switched back to my sim, then I removed the mixologist from the role using the register mod and rehired him. Sometimes this works but not always. Then I reseted the bar, nothing. What fixed the issue was first removing the sim using the register mod, let it assign the role to a new sim which didn't appear to work at all and after a while rehire the first mixologist.

What I'm wondering is if there's a permanent fix for this issue.

I think the following might help. I remember that this had to do with the mixologists being low skilled:

As you can see from the picture his mixology skill is at level ten. The rest of the tips in the link you have provided are saying how you can reset the bar. That works as a temporary fix, same as reassigning the role.
Maybe there is no permanent fix for this error, dunno 😟

And this is why I love nitromon.

😂 I guess all your bars must be haunted!

BORING!!! With so many fun options available for murder, why use Nraas for that? Unless you mean Dexter The Bear? Desecrate (think that's right?) weapons are always a hoot! Forget the mod, but I think it's here on MTS, let's Harley use her bat!

Can't find the beat down, but this was on her way there!!!

I'm thinking if my habit to edit the sims appearance has anything to do with this problem. For now I have hired someone who I'm planning not to take into cas and see if that will make any difference. 🧐

You may or may not have done this, but in worlds that do not have apartment, as Bridgeport does, I place one apartment building. Even in Oasis Landing, I place in Wastelands (kinda fits). This way, all NPC's can be found at that apartment, and can be reset, killed, whatever, without looking everywhere for them. Especially useful in worlds where NPC's just go to some lot and disappear.

Works for me in Oasis Landing. ))) Residents will move into the apartment, and NPC's show on the mailbox as living there.

Disclaimer: As always, it may be some other mod I have that allows it to work in ITF???

I never really visit the basecamp after my first visit to OL. I buy a vacation home, so have not noticed, but have seen other townies in the apartment.
