Maids doing nothing at all

<< < (2/3) > >>

Steele:
I have been noticing that at the bulk of where non-active sims go to work they also get stuck at a certain part of their lots and does not go to work or school. They just stand there. After some time they'll go to the park and wander around. It also happens to certain NPCs that are supposed to be at work. I did see a mailman delivering mail at 2pm on a non-active lot.

For me this happens on an over-populated town. The game cache could not handle all the sims moving at the same time. So far with only the AM non active sims career related to your household is pushed to work as well as those households within a certain proximity are pushed. The further households are left inactive.

My guess based on my game play observations, is probably non-active households are put into more priority than the NPCs.

Does your stuck maids or nannies go home when their scheduled time is up? If they do, then probably your also experiencing the same thing I am observing. If not, there might be a certain mod, hack or setting that's interfering with their routine code.

Yes, my stuck maids go home when their scheduled time is up.

Mine go home after saying, "I'm done here." And, they collect their $125 for doing nothing!

My maids do this as well. I always have a front door set and it will persist even when fired / re-hired days later. It is always fine after moving to a new house, but eventually goes wonky again. Sometimes they'll follow my sim in and clean up normally if my sim is coming home from a community lot or work, but that's really hit-or-miss.

I don't think I've really needed much in the way of cleaning to hire a maid for. I mean, maybe every once in awhile, a countertop gets dirty. It just doesn't happen often enough to be worth bothering to hire a maid for, plus, services don't function very well when you're a neighborhood-wide house-hopper.
