Simbots are awesome
LFox:
I've got a female sim in my game with that problem. I couldn't figure out what the hell it was until I saw the female simbot. It seems to me that the hairstyle for the simbots is most likely tagged to come up in random hair selections or something.

The fact that they have to go to the bathroom and sleep in beds really pissed me off, so I got rid of them. It's like EA didn't feel like adding any new programming to make them actually function differently. It's just a sim wearing a robot suit.
Wait, what? Simbots PEE?
Yeah. It's explained as "releasing waste buildup" and the toilet being the "most convenient place to dispose of it".

Man you guys HAVE to realize that something that ingests matter will produce waste, right?
Only if you eat food which contains undigestable matter. Simbots eat FOOD? My understanding was that simbots consume scrap metal. Given that scrap metal is entirely digestable, being metal, and in any event, anything which might NOT be digestable is likely toxic heavy metals, you don't want to be dumping that into a terlet. It might even be illegal to do so.

This assumes that said chemical reaction produces no by-product. It would appear that the Simbot consumes metal to either convert to energy somehow or make internal repairs; similar to human growth or energy conversion. It is highly unlikely that this chemical reaction would have zero by-product.
Hell, even hydrogen cars "pee" because their by-product is water.

I was trying to figure it out but am totally lost. But I imagine that is indeed how you'd go about doing it.
Yeah, I can't do it. From reading other forums it seems like it might take a core mod anyway, which would be retarded.
