Bathroom Controller: In Soviet Russia, Bathroom Uses You!
ZephyrZodiac:
Sorry, as it happened I forced the errors in order to reset the sims and stuff in question because they weren't acting correctly, and I don't understand the things myself, so I didn't know whether there might be something there that would help.

Is this an NL-only game? It still crashes, even with the current update?
Yes, up to Nightlife as per my signature.

I downloaded the latest version of BYU. Is it for OFB only? Whenever I enter a house and take it off of pause the game crashes after a few seconds with the message "this application has crashed". After several hours of reloading the game to pinpoint the problem, it came down to the latest BYU. I rolled back to the last version and everything is fine again.

Grr. That problem is back again? Lemme try something else....
Maybe my screwup. Did the above mean that you already downloaded another version after 2.51? Because I was referring to 2.51 when I wrote the above and thought by your post that you meant you were working on the problem, not that you already uploaded another. If you did, then I need to redownload.

No, this problem was already fixed, I had someone with NL-only test it, it didn't crash theirs. So it should be fixed now.

Final update to my testing:
5) The problem still exists in a multi-stall/multi-shower with a BUY controller for each toilet, even after replacing all the controllers. The sims still (with free will on) run off to the bathroom when they're idling and their bladder and hygene are higher than 3/4 green.
I also noticed that it seems to be affecting dormies the same way -- they run off to the bathroom more now, even though I have nouniprotect active. They're still falling asleep in their food and whatnot, but not a single instance of dormie bladder failure in an entire semester. I didn't notice this in the dorm with single toilet/shower bathrooms, so I'll have to pay more attention next time I play one.
I can't imagine why this is happening this way, but there you go. I did run a scan with Paladin's hack scanner, and it didn't turn up anything that's conflicting with BUY.
Magicmoon:
OK. Redownloaded latest version of V2.51. No longer crashes game. But it is much, much worse about calling sims to the bathroom with a full bladder.
I have a sim that has 98% bladder that has 6 BYU icons queued up, as she is presently doing her homework (so evidently an empty queue isn't mandatory for the BUY to call them). Others may be down in the orange area and not be called until desperation sets in. Most are being called while 50% or higher . (I am calling 0% desperation and 100% just got done going).
I did remove all the old BUY controllers and replaced them as others have reported that this helps. It did not help in my case.
I had a trying time trying to take them out though, as this is in a frat house with 4 showers and 4 bathroom stalls, each with a controller, in one room and I couldn't stop it from calling sims long enough to get them out of the bathroom so I could grab the controllers!
I did notice that I do need one BUY controller for each stall. I was pulling them out one at a time as I could get them while not in use. When I got down to just one controller there was a line outside of the bathroom, sims with green bladder gauges all waiting to use the one controller while ignoring the empty stalls.
I am playing in a Greek house. Free will is on. I am not using procrastinate, power idle, or any of those type things available with macrotastics. BUY controllers not changed from default. I usually play with seek on, but I didn't change anything after replacing the controllers.
