Bathroom Controller: In Soviet Russia, Bathroom Uses You!

<< < (75/124) > >>

redmachine:
I'm getting errors every time a dog pees on the floor. Removing noteleportpuddle seems to fix this. It might be related to what dizzy has posted about above...
Here's the error log, anyway.




Edit: Soz, it seems this error has already been posted on two other areas of the site......it's hard to keep up. :-\

How is BUY working with Pets? Anyone have any experience? I am running very lean on hacks at the moment. Just the ones I absolutely can't live without (lesswhiny, noroutefail, nowhatsthis).

I did notice my sims will happy use the toilet with a pet in the room, so at least they aren't a problem in that regard. They can cause traffic jams in the small bathrooms though. I had one cat and one sim do the doorway shuffle (move. no, you move. no, you move. no you).

Also, it's possible to train cats to use the toilet.  ;)

I have seen this option a few times but I don't see an option to train them to use the litterbox.  Are they supposed to just use the litterbox on their own?  I haven't played cats long enough to be sure.

BUY seems to be working OK for me so far.

Motoki:
I think the litterbox is just instinctual, although I bet you can praise them for using it and/or scold them for going to bathroom somewhere else to try and reinforce that behavior, but it's not a command that you can tell them to do like using the toilet once they are trained.

Actually, if you adopt a pet by phone they come already with some reinforced behaviors. It's rather convenient because you can tell which animal is going to be a total spaz or destroy the furniture and which are well behaved before you adopt them. I didn't see any cats in the adoption pool though, but maybe that was just coincidence?

Did you click on the correct icon in the adoption window?  There is one for large dogs, one for small dogs, and one for cats.

I wish they'd shipped the game with more, um, attractive-looking dogs and cats in the adoption pool.  I can see now that I'm going to have to spend some time this weekend figuring out how to use the Create-a-Pet, because most of the ones shipped with the game are just ugly, IMHO.  (Knowing Maxis, that's not exactly a big surprise....)
