Cleanbot goes AWOL at Secret Society lot

(1/3) > >>

tunaisafish:
Playing La Tour Uni. I bought some crafting stations with the SS money.
The first cleanbot was put to use clearing up after the messy members.  Doesn't get all the crap but saves you some time when your sim has no influence left to make another member useful.

Saved from the SS lot and exited.  Next time back and there is no sign of the cleanbot.
Built another, tried again, but this time went home to the dorm.
No difference, the second bot has gone AWOL too.

Looked on google for this problem, but only found tips about using them at the SS lot.
Anybody else here seen this?

Have some hacks related to lessbreakage of robots.  I'm going to look into those to see if they are the culprit.

Emma:
I had a sentrybot disappear from a residential lot the other day. I forgot about it until I saw this post. :-\

tunaisafish:
Didn't take me long to rule out the hack.  It's just a constants tweak from Crammyboy (CBOY_RobotsBreakLess).

Emma, you got me thinking it could be something added in the ALpatch concerning all robots,
but no changes to the robotglobals there.
Trivial changes in there from EP7->EP8.  I guess that I would have seen more hits on google if AL broke robots this way though.

I'm playing all EP's including the AL patch.
These are the first 2 robots I've ever used!  I'll try a third on a normal residential lot.

J. M. Pescado:
If a robot is "active", it becomes ain invisible sim wearing a robot on its head. As the sim does not belong to any family, he will deinstantiate on a patch or other reset, taking your robot with it. To make the robot reappear, shift-click on the stand and respawn the robot. Remember to shutdown your robot before leaving the lot!

Thanks, now I'm picturing that dinosaur from Meet the Robinsons.
