Missing Deed
croiduire:
I like the idea that it went for inheritance taxes. ;D As long as I know it's not a game-breaker sort of bug!

From what I remember any title deeds go to the sim with the highest relationship in the same household. I've only been bothered about this once or twice and made sure that the intended recipient was at 100/100 with the deed owner. You can also have the owner pass on business perks to the intended recipient, but you'll need a hack to make that happen in any sensible time frame.

Before BV, I had an accidental satellite death, and the business did not pass to either of her elder parents who lived on the same lot with her. I loved the surprise element in the story of this family, but hated the loss of the business which they'd held for generations, so I decided to see if it could be fixed. When I reverted to a backup to test, I found that no matter how I killed her off, her deed reverted to the community, and now I think it must be as jsalemi says:

The sequence may be: spouse - adult kid living on the same lot - community. But my memory may also be faulty.
Calyx was single, with no children but was close to both of her parents and siblings. In the end, I had to have her pass the deed back to her father before I squished her again. :P

If you keep stopping and re-starting the "pass on" it's not so bad. There's a big boost at the beginning of every interaction, so stop/starting fills that meter fairly fast. Pes has a hack to do that, but it's not a polished product and I've gone back to doing it myself.
There's a quote on inheritance rules from the Prima guide in this thread. Of course it pre-dates BV & vaction homes........

Do you mean fastpass? I have and use this (though not since I added BV a little while ago), and I'm just curious what you dislike about it? It seemed to work satisfactorily for me. ???
Thanks for the link to the earlier discussion, but it's a little vague about how far afield the game will search for 'blood relatives'. I think EA tacitly assumed that children would outlive their parents, and so the only checks are for a spouse or offspring of suitable age on the same lot.
