School/Work Perfomance Problem is Making Me Sick

<< < (2/3) > >>

KingBooker:
Is there some kind of mod to stop this? I checked everywhere...

misscatfish:
Do you use Awesomemod and its Configuration Tool (which you can access in the original post of the Awesomemod thread)? If so, disabling AllowInactivePerfGain should stop the job demotions (as well as prevent promotions, unfortunately) in the households you're not playing.

This worked for me and I run with aging on and story progression off. I'm not sure if it works on school performance, as well. Does anybody know for sure?

The only thing that worked for me is everytime I make a short play with another lot I wait until kids go to school and parents go to work and set each one for "Work Hard", then I correct their motives with "MaxMotives" or just pull the motive sliders to the end. Then I left back to my main lot. Seems to work.

I guess I should try that. Thanks.

I'm having the same problem, but it doesn't start right away. In a new neighborhood, all the kids go to school and everyone seems to go to work. I'm also using Awesomemod. As the neighborhood ages, however, they just stop. I noticed that it seems to be directly related to whether I get the warning popup for 'hour until work/school.' If that warning fires in my active household, then inactive households all seem to go to work and school. If it doesn't fire, they blow it off. And as my neighborhood ages, the warnings stop firing and I haven't found any way to bring them back. I've been trying various things with my backup saves, but no dice, so if anyone has a way to get these warnings to start firing again, I'd love to hear about it. 

So I'm stuck switching households every morning to manually send kids to school, or just letting them fail. Ultimately I don't care, it just means the failing little jerks get crappy traits, and I can always change these later if I want, but for the sake of realism I'd love to find a way to get them going on their own again.
