Hack Requests? I'd Like a Newspaper Fix...
Milhouse Trixibelle Saltfucker III:
What do you use for "a Makebuyable collection"? I used to have a nice collection of normally unbuyable things that I found very useful, but apparently it broke at some point.
Dark Trepie:
What's gotten annoying is that the paperboy/girl will hike all the way to your front door now and plop it down instead of at the mailbox. And any walk-bys who want to read it will do the same. A nice little "feature" that came with AL.
I seem to recall old newspapers attracted roaches. I can't be sure though.

Oh, and once you start looking at the code difference between Newspaper - Check Weatherforecast and Read Section... (0x7F08E23C), if it doesn't make you flinge (or cringe), I'll pull my own hair out for you; or shoot that thing off the top of your fury little head with an arrow if I'm right. LOL
All EAxis code has that reaction for me. It's unnecessarily complicated, roundabout, etc. Calling it spaghetti code is too kind. Also, look up Trichotillomania. Jokes about pulling out hair are not amusing. It's nearly as bad as saying you'll cut yourself.
You asked to be booed. I aim to please.

Not a behavior I've noticed. It's really common for my sims to have newspapers decaying all over the place because I don't direct cleaning unless one of the sims is high on neat, and few have maids. Only one household has a butler. No roaches. I get them from trash, of course.
professorbutters:
The only thing I've noticed with old papers is that the Garden Club members regard it as trash--only a problem if you're trying to get a Wishing Well--and if you have some sitting around, the paperboy/girl stops delivering them. My maids clean them up; a lot of the time my neat Sims have already cleaned them up on free will. I find the coffee cup behavior much more annoying (and there is a hack for that) and the dropping of Thinking Caps on the kitchen counter.
Zazazu:
Eating out of the trashcan when there's a fully stocked fridge easily accessible in the house. My former mayor's kid, Colin Henry, used to trashdive in the can kept in a cupboard off the kitchen in the manse when he would visit. Since he was a poor farmer and I'd rarely leave food out, I could buy that. But doing so at his own home?
Customers will complain about old newspapers in a home business. My home businesses usually get maids, excepting the Corelli shack...if you're paying $5/hour to shoot hoops in the yard and spin vinyl on a dj booth on the driveway, you can't expect much.
Pescado has a cap rack. Somewhere. Here.
