Issue #36028: Homecooked Meal Bug

 
It has come to my attention that my spouse has stopped offering my daily homecooked meal. Initially, I dismissed this, thinking that the dialogue option would reappear the next day. However, a week has passed, and I miss hearing my spouse's dialogue. I have survival mode enabled and have always looked forward to receiving a daily meal to recover my attributes after a long day of adventure. Apart from the USSEP and Garthand's USCCCP, I do not have any other mods installed.

I appreciate any assistance you can provide regarding this issue, and I would be glad to share more details if needed.

Confirm this has happened to me. Something wrong with the script. It only seems to run about 7 times.

Hm, the reset time is properly set to 24 hours, so we might need more info. What spouse? What home?

Can confirm this appears to be broken for no apparent reason.

Spouse: Ysolda
Home: Proudspire Manor

She gave me one meal when asked, and then going outside and waiting in 24 hour increments is not resetting the dialogue.

USSEP has not edited the INFO response she'd give and only has one edit to one of the others that was made in 2014 for a typo. No other content from base game edits these responses either.

A cursory look through a Google search suggests this bug has existed for a long time with no known solution other than to "get a divorce the Skyrim way" :P
