Mascot Frozen Problem
syberspunk:
Ok. I'm not quite sure if this is related to the bathroomusesyou hack, but... I was playing in Uni today and I noticed that a Mascot (a good one, it was a Llama) was in a house I hadn't played in a while. I created a new set of students and combined them with the household and went into the dorm. The mascot was already in the middle of using the bathroom. I sent one of my new students, a popularity sim that I plan to make into a big man on campus type, so I figured why not get him to socialize with the mascot.
Well... he ended up getting stuck waiting outside the bathroom for the mascot to come out, and the mascot was just sorta stuck/frozen standing in the bathroom. This is while I had chosen Macro... Socialzie... Friendly. Well... I cancelled out of that, and the Mascot walked out... then he walked into another bathroom and took a leak. Then, after flushing, he just stood there frozen.
I waited for a while to see if anything happened. I tried using the Call Over action, but the mascot just stood there. Anyways, I don't know if it is bathroomusesyou related or if the Macro/Socialize did something? I have mostly your hacks, twojeffs, some of dizzy's new stuff, and other few minor random things.
The only other things I could imagine might be related to this issue are twojeffs' Always Wash Hands after using the toilet hack or maybe twojeffs' Cow Mascot head? which I actually doubt, since it is only supposed to react to bad Cow mascots... Anyways, I ended up forcing an error on the mascot, and then I choose reset. He went through the stupid "Gerbitz" cheer routine, then he used the bathroom and got stuck/frozen again after flushing.
I will post the error log and maybe you could tell me if there's something hack related? Or should I just delete him, chalk it up to a fluke, cross my fingers and hope it doesn't happen again. :p

I have a nice clean ‘hood with 320 or so character files and only critical hacks and annoyance fixes from twojeffs and JM. JM will probably have other ideas but I have been safely deleting cheerleaders and mascots from my dorms for a while. I don't seem to have a problem with them sticking in Greek houses and private lodgings, just dorms. It still happens even without hacks present so I'd doubt hacks are an issue.
DaveFlew:
I'll second that, Posie. I've only had the frozen mascot problem once, and I just put move objects on and moved it. I now have a decorative Cow Mascot statue - and the original (actual, living) Cow Mascot appears to be unaffected by this.
My frozen mascot situation might have happened during an "Add Soap To Fountain" action that might have gone awry. :-\
HRH Posie:
Lol, I like that idea however I just deleted my mascot. After a couple of sim days he appeared in a community lot looking and acting the same as ever :D
ZephyrZodiac:
If it happens in "clean" neighbourhoods, it could be something that could be fixed with JM's lotdebugger.
