BUY Problem (minor but irritating)
Mirelly:
OK I have three full bathrooms in a line. Two have a single door which gives onto a spacious landing/hallway (it's a minimum 3x4) The third bath bathroom, is one square short of a 3x3, has only a shower and has two doors, one connection to a bedroom and the other to the aforementioned landing/hall. Each bathroom has one toilet, one sink, one bath, and one BUY controller. None of the controllers have any specific use/reject settings (ie all are on default settings).
OK the problem. The throw out order is routinely sending sims to an adjacent bathroom via the landing. It doesn't happen with the bathroom with two doors, which is frequently the room that ends the loop ... although I have watched one sim endlessly prepared to run from one of the other bathrooms to the other. In all respects function is unimpaired and the game has no other errors. Debug mode is not generating any errors either. BUY is most recent version -- Jan 2 edition -- all FFS hacks are from most recent DC.
Is this more likely to be tight pants or a quirk of the design I have? I'm asking since a tight pants search is apt to be tediously unfruitful (I have almost no non-awesome content anyway, and if my understanding is not a million miles off, BUY is pretty damn robust and should not easily be fubared.
J. M. Pescado:
I have never seen a sim actually eject into another bathroom, always only into the only adjacent room. However, if you're letting your sims meander about on their own, perhaps they are choosing a course which then takes them into the bathroom. But I have never actually seen this behavior, so pix or it didn't happen.
Mirelly:
Pix, eh? OK, but don't accuse me of rigging these.
Archive contains a sequence of 6 pics. 01-06. The first and last are screencaps and the intermediates are in game snapshots. Stupid screecap failed to capture the tooltips that showed the order being followed was "be thrown out".
This sim stopped on the landing after exiting the middle bathroom. But on being sent back into it, he exited to the left hand bathroom and from there to the room to the left and stop.
Like I said, it's not really a problem, I think it's a factor involved with the design ... maybe the stair-head is too close to the bathroom doors. The house is a farmhouse that has undergone a lot of "modernisation" and extension as three generations have raised a gazillion brats and grown enough fresh veg to pay for a luxy (furnished) penthouse pad for each sprog that reached adulthood (using the awesome mod that makes sure it costs plenty of rhino to keep an apt's furnishings).
Mirelly:
Because I'm intriguedly bemused by the antic ... pation. :-*

How do you have the BUY setup? By Radius or Room Only?
