Customers at your Small Business start with their motives between 75 and 100 (and the main exception I fixed here). Motives go from -100 to 100, so this is very high.
This mod makes them enter the business with a more varied set of motives. Their hunger, hygiene, bladder, energy, and fun will now all have a chance of starting lower. The cap is also lower- Sims will always enter with 65 or less hunger, but the minimum is 25. So a little over half hunger. This means if your business has Sims hanging out for a while, crafting pottery or whatever, they may leave earlier if you have no sources of snacks around. But it also means if your business provides fun activities Sims will be more willing to use them, as they'll arrive a little more bored than before.
Additionally, I believe this fixes an issue where Ghosts show up when your business rules say ONLY Non-Occult customers are allowed.
EDIT: The ghost issue remains fully diagnosed. This might help it? But it might also be doing nothing. Doesn't hurt though. But I have reports of ghosts still showing up. Original description below:
From what I can tell, the customer role outright says no ghosts allowed to begin with. But then when you tell the game Only Humans Allowed, it creates a double-negative situation that then enables ghost visits. I removed the part of this tuning that stops ghosts from visiting businesses in general, and in a bit of brute force testing, never saw a ghost at a business that disallows them. Let me know if you see any ghosts with this rule applied. You will see ghosts without this rule applied as a result, but ghosts are a standard sims thing so...oh well?
