The social worker made my sim pregnant!

Ness:
Put a sunken hot tub in a flat tiled roof, and it snows through the roof.  Was not impressed to discover that one!

Now I think YOU are overthinking this.


I actually didn't think about it much at all, although I did make some assumptions.  And no, I do not think they tested these things much, if at all, obviously.  I don't use attics much, and I had one house that I noticed this problem with.  Cutting the corner of the attic space cleared up the issue, and that was it.  Also, it snows through all of the roofs in my game.  Maybe this is not the way it was supposed to be, but that is the way it is as I am seeing it.  If this is not the case for you, then I can not explain that.  Do you always cover the top level of a house with a floor, even if there is a roof over it?  If there is no floor, then presumably you would not see the snow accumulate on it.  I can not explain this, only observe it.  The snow does not accumulate and get deeper, like it does outside, for some reason, but it does cover any floor built under any roof on the roof level.

I reckon it's much simpler - roof walls don't count as "real" walls, so attics made using them are kind of outside. Similarly, I have had messages saying I can't have ceiling lamps in attics because it's outside.
The snowing through roofs I've had with a Maxis octagonal roof - and the snow layer on top actually hovered above it.

cwykes:
From what you're saying it looks like all the sims who sleep upstairs are in danger of freezing in this house.  I guess I either add another floor with proper bedrooms or just change the season.  It's a TSR challenge house which probably means it was a maxis house.   

What I'm more worried about is the baby disappearing, but still part of the family and the sim ending up pregnant again.  All with no error message or log.  I hope this isn't a common feature of SS visits since seasons!

Lerf:
Put floor tiles directly under the roof.  Solves the whole problem painlessly.
