school grr, piano pain and spiral stairs.
Aphrodite:
Is it just me or did we lose the ability to cancel out putting down homework with AL? It's driving me nuts that Sim kids are walking up 3 flights of steps to their apartment just to put their schoolbooks by the desk in their home. Teens just barely put their homework down then have to go to work. Waste of time.
Pretty much all sims who have attempted to play the piano are not even completing one skill before they stop for no plausible reason.
Why can't Sims run up spiral stairs like they can normal staircases? I want them to run, dammit.

I've been able to cancel out so they drop it on the floor. But I've noticed that they no longer use the One Desk. Like, they'll go upstairs to put homework on the desk in their bedroom (which is the second desk purchased for the house) rather than the desk downstairs (the desk bought first and closest to door).
GayJohnScarritt:
Okay, mine go towards the One Desk, then drop it on the floor in front of it. It's not blocked as i can put the homework on the desk and they can do it. True, the desk was already in the apt when i rented it (using the shift/click to rent furnished). Guess i need to try buying a new desk just to test that theory out. lol

Is the square to the right of the desk free? I've noticed before that kids won't put their homework on an empty desk if they can't stand to the right of it.
In AL I've noticed that if they can't put their homework near The One Desk (e.g. a traffic jam near the desk), they'll head off to the second desk.

In Pre-AL games, if Seasons Country desk happens to be The One Desk, Sims put homework on the ground as soon as they get off the school bus. That desk is specifically designed to block homework route, otherwise Sims' arms will go right through the side panel when they're standing to the right side of the desk.
Haven't tried in AL yet.
