Famous Pastry Chef Aspiration by xbrettface Updated
There was very very little that needed to change in this aspiration. It just needed updating for new added tuning and to mark it as a teen+ aspiration (there’s no straightforward way to mark it as young adult and older) and to recognize cupcakes baked in the oven. So I changed as little as possible.
From the original description:

What I’ve changed:
– I changed how cupcakes are registered – instead of checking using the cupcake making interaction on the cupcake machine, it now checks for making cupcakes (a whole batch, not a single cupcake). It will now register cupcakes made in the oven too.
– I added the teen+ aspiration_valid_age_type. Not having that is the main reason it was broken.
– I added completion loots to the objectives, for wants and pivotal moments, as is now the standard.
– I added a buff to let the game know that the aspiration was completed.
– The reward trait is now valid for reincarnation.
– The reward trait is now available for teens.
– The reward trait now has a display_name_gender_neutral.
– The reward trait is restricted to humans.
– I re-used the included icon on the trait.
– I updated the SImData.
– I added comments, since I had to update all the files anyway.
Most of those are things I’ve done for every aspiration I’ve updated.
I haven’t added wants. I’ve made so few changes that it didn’t feel right to, and xbrettface said they had plans for the aspiration the last time they updated it. Hopefully they will come back and make those changes.
If you’ve been playing with the aspiration despite it being a bit broken, you can pop the update into your game and keep going with no progress lost. And existing translations will still work.
