Apartment Life Borkiness, or how i ended the world in 1 hour.
Alex:
Hm. In my screwy test hood, I made Julien Cooke marry the Evil High Witch: Angel Smith. For some reason, the Spellbook and Cauldron in her inventory aren't hers. It belongs to some other chick!
Nothing major, just curious as to why it's done this.
And yes, the pond is a "tree", for some insane reason.
KnowitallSim:
My borklist so far:
1. Aspiration awards seem to be broken.
With my one sim, he was in platinum aspiration and he got home from work at 3pm very tired as he was on a dream date with his boyfriend the night before and never went to bed. So I bought him the energizer, and it backfired! I tried it twice more and it backfired twice more! So then later he was in Platinum again and he needed to skill, so I put on the Thinking Cap. Backfired! He lost a Charisma point!
2. Also, when my sim used the energizer and it backfired, I was given 8 or so little pop up windows on the side informing me that I lost enthusiam in all 8 hobbies, even though he didn't have any in some of them! Not sure if it's a feature or glitch, but the note pop up spam is really annoying.
3. The main menu screen is very very choppy. It freezes and unfreezes every 3 seconds. This has been an issue since Bon Voyage.
4. I cannot find the medicine cabinet or the medicine cabinet mirror. I have checked every category, it does not exist for me.
5. How does magic work? I'm a bit confused about that.
6. One of the neighborhood decorations has been replaced by a new one. Downtown looks really glitchy because of this.
7. Roommates motives are always green. Every time they go to work or run errands they turn green as well.
8. The little portraits are changing every time sims change clothes. It's irritating, I like certain portraits for certain sims!
9. Messed up memories and genetics for new premades
10. Not a bork, but some really weird townie names in Belladonna Cove. Christian Love...
LK:
New Bork (at least to me).
Warning: BBS Link. Though it's pretty tame.
Upon receiving any NL mail like coupons or whatnot, the apartment mailbox reverts to a standard mailbox thus preventing apartment-based mailbox actions.
Ellie:
I keep getting these "attribute number out of range" errors on apartment lots with only the AL director's cut as hacks. Anyone know what this is about?

Can't make apartments with backyards on foundations.
Srs? Bugger, I just started a large one, I wanted underground carparks.
You can, it's just tricky. I had to set up everything but the door to the outside partitioned yard, move the family in, invoke the "boolProp aptSubLotSpecificToolsDisabled false" cheat. Add door. Profit. The bad thing is that neighbors will be psychic about what you have in that area and crave it.
Basically, in the game's view fences = common areas. That's why the tiny flooring edge dividers are turning kitchens and the like into community areas.
If you add the door after switching the lot type to apartmentbase but before moving sims in, the lot reports having 0 apartments at $0 and you won't be able to move anyone in. My next building attempt will be a set of townhouses, so we'll see if I can set up attached yards, package, and have it still function. I don't have high hopes.
Lerf, that was classic.
