Oddities after successfully pleading with Death in Uni.

(1/4) > >>

Gus Smedstad:
I had a single Sim at University, and I'm running a custom dorm which forces dormies to use conventional bedrooms.  Since I'm also running No Dormie Invulnerability, the 7 dormies sharing the lot tend to smell, piss themselves, and die.  I'd like to cut back on that a bit without taking out the possibility entirely, but that's a different subject.

The first deaths two my Sim didn't care about, but the third was his closest friend.  Not too close, just 40ish RL, but he likes everyone else even less.  So he pleaded for her life, and won.

Now she's selectable and controllable, except -

* She can't use beds.  Trying to click on a bed gives a "no interactions" balloon, though my regular Sim can use them.
* She doesn't show up as a household member in the neighborhood view.
EDIT:
* She can't study skills using the bookcase.
* She can't use the easel to paint.
* She can't use the stove / refrigerator except to "Make XXX" or "Make Many XXX."  No "Have Breakfast" or "Serve Breakfast."

Any ideas how I can fix this, either way?  I suppose I could use Inge's shrub to make her a Townie again.

EDIT:
The shrub wouldn't make her a townie again, but I could use it to move her in to the household.  Now all the missing interactions are available.  So it's resolved.  But still an interesting quirk.

Is she even part of the actual household? If so, delete her, save, and reload the lot. If not, delete her and keep playing. Either way, delete.

Zazazu:
I've had slightly similar issues with two move-ins since FreeTime. One grandmother moved in the traditional way (her daughter asked her to) and started to leave the lot. I could direct her to do other things, but she'd start and then start leaving. Another was a proposed move-in at another home, this one a love interest. Same deal. With both, saving and deleting the sim and then reloading the lot fixed it. I've started doing it with all move-ins.

Gus Smedstad:
The game crashed when my Sim graduated.  Turned out my previous save was before I'd moved her in with the shrub.  So this time I turned MoveObjects on, deleted her, saved and reloaded... and things were back to normal, with her being a normal dormie.

Now to see if the game crashes on graduation again.

talysman:
The original problem was probably just something that happened to *that* resurrectee. Normally, they just become a controllable sim, even if they weren't before. I had it happen twice, but I only clearly remember was resurrecting a dormie as a zombie. Since that used the special phone at the secret society and the dormie appeared there, then returned home as a playable sim, that may have been a special case. I *may* have had a similar problem as yours with the other resurrection, which was an actual pleading with the Reaper, but I don't remember how I resolved it. I did it well before graduation, though, so no crash.
