Dumping Trash in the Toilet?

<< < (2/3) > >>

gravatik:
I think when there's nowhere to put the garbage, the game basically forgets about it, and the bag stays stuck in the sim's hand slot.  Then they go off to clean the terlet, and the bag gets removed when the game would normally delete the toilet brush.  More a side-effect of EAxian negligence than a feature...

Too bad, should have known better. Here I was starting to think, that someone working on the game, was more amusing then we give them credit for.

Mens Mortuus:
Haha, I thought I was the only one! But yeah, like gravatik said. Somehow the action to throw the bag into the wastebasket, or the can outside is interrupted, and macrostatics instantly queues washing the toilet bowl... but they keep the bag in hand and the brush doesn't appear. So it looks like that. But not true that it happens when there's no can or something... this occurs when they're interrupted (like a sim blocking their way, or something.) The usual reaction is to just throw the garbage on the floor, but macrostatics doesn't allow them to, and it gets stuck as they do other things.

notovny:
Ah. Well, then. Mystery Solved.  Thank ye all kindly.
