Or quickly. Well it happened again, and so rather than making you sit through the three pics I took (& 45 sim minutes of being stuck in the loo) I figure I can just post the one that shows what's really going on. I had to be damn quick to get it, but I did.
Um, why couldn't you pause the game to get the screen cap? That's what I would do. I've had situations in the past with the flashing icon, but if you pause it, it will stop flashing so you can cancel it or whatever.

normally an excellent suggestion, but the flashyness stuffs it up - it looks like I've paused with the "evict" mode on. And that's the only reason i sat around & tried for so long in game.
Vren Lyet:
Setting "Transparent UI" to "No" will rid you of the flashy effect and some unnecessary queue animations.
This might help getting a proper screen shot.
J. M. Pescado:
I don't actually care about seeing the flashy stuff, what I want to see is the layout that triggers this.
floopyboo:
Well, so far as I've been able to determine, it's "any subsequent toilet with a buy bogroll" that is the layout problem, and only since I installed the second Pets patch (the one for the game, not the bodyshop one, just to be absolutely clear).
As I said, I had this problem in different areas of the house if I moved the toilet, and with different layouts. I tried replicating the exact layout of the bathroom in the house that DOES work, with no success. I think I can safely assume that it is NOT a layout problem, but a multiple bathroom problem, and only since the Pets patch, in my game.
I haven't tested this in any other hoods yet, but I will later, and I will let you know if the problem is my hood, along with an apology for the inconvenience if required. But I do hope you will understand that this morning planning my hens' night is coming before testing your hack. I'll get back to you eventually, but trust me, I will get back to you. I'm annoying like that.
*EDIT: I haven't been able to replicate it on another lot yet, so it's quite likely that it's either that lot that's the problem or it's resolved itself. Unless BUY has a problim with paladin's servo recharger, which is another thing I'm going to look into.
*ANOTHER EDIT: It's the servo recharger that's the problem. Don't have it on the same level as a toilet & you're right. My apologies, and I hope this helps other people with the same nifty goodness.
