Coffecuphack and Nobathroomdishes Incompatible???
BoilingOil:
Originally I was annoyed by the fact that after drinking a cup of coffee, Sims would walk 5 miles, uphill, in the snow, with a boner, to find a DESK (for crying out loud) to put the cup on, in stead of washing it up or putting it on a counter (why a desk, and NOT a counter, EAxoids??? Have you lost it???)
So then I found that the Coffeecuphack solved the issue, having the Sim wash up the cup, or put it on the floor where they were.
Then I got annoyed by Sims who, when told to clean up dishes in the kitchen, would ignore the kitchen sink, and use the bathroom sink instead, onlu because there spouse was in the bathroom (probably USING that sink, causing a traffic jam). I was hoping for a hack that would lessen the obsession with spouses, so they would ONLY use the bathroom sink, if the kitchen sink was already in use. But such a thing doesn't exist as far as I am aware. So I used the next best thing: Nobathroomdishes.
Now, if the ONLY available sink is in the bathroom, they will throw dishes away, rather than to wash them up in the bathroom. Seemed better to me than the alternative...
But now back to the coffeecups: after installing Nobathroomdishes, the Sims behave as if the coffeecuphack doesn't exist anymore: They again walk 5 miles, uphill, etcetera for a desk, rather than putting the cup on the kitchen floor.
I would like to see that Sims preferred the CLOSEST available sink, UNLESS it is in use, and only used the bathroom sink, if no other option is available. And if that fails as well, I would like to see them just put the cup down wherever they are, whithout resorting to cluttering desks - which are NOT counters after all - and for which they have to cross the whole house.
Does anyone here know of a way to get this done correctly? I *know* we can't trust the EAxoids to do such things right, because if we could, this problem would not have occurred in the first place...

Are you sure you don't have any hack conflicts? What EPs do you have?
I have both these hacks, and they work as designed. Sims drop the cups on the floor if there isn't an open surface or sink nearby, usually in the same room.

Coffee Cup Hack + Bathroom Uses You will do the trick.
Or stop putting sinks in bathrooms. I never put sinks in bathrooms, unless I want behavior like that. OK, I'm lying; I think I have a couple places where I used a sink purely decoratively.

HCDU sees absolutely no conflicts, and I have all EP's and SP's

I was not happy with BUY, because it doesn't seem to use bathtubs, only showers, whereas I prefer my sims to use bathtubs. I don't want Ass to Wipe my Sims... :) I actually *care* about these little babies... :)
Also, I find sinks in bathroom useful.
I prefer a sensible solution over the EAxoid way, but if it's beyond the big hackers' capabilities to make this work without resorting to Soviet tactics, I'll survive <big evil grin> (no offense intended)
