Bathroom Controller: In Soviet Russia, Bathroom Uses You!
Magicmoon:
Using the latest update. Default configuration. Toilet and shower in same room.
To set this off, use a Sim with low hygeine and bladder. Macro>go to bed. When the Sim enters the bathroom, delete the BUY in the queue that runs when the Sim wakes up. The Sim will use the toilet then just stand there frozen.
Pause then delete the BUY that is currently being run and the Sim will go to bed, OR delete 'Go to Bed' and the Sim will finish by taking a shower.
ETA: I've also had a few queue drops after skillinator sends them to bathroom first, but haven't tracked it down to specifics yet.

I am not seeing this result in testing. In my game, the linkup seems to work just fine in all cases. Are you certain you are using the latest everything? What are you doing to trigger this? Is everything properly configured?
It is rather curious. I am assuming that this is a macrotastics problem even though it is showing up in BUY.
I am in a situation where I downloaded the 9/15/08 macrotastics.zip package, installed macrotastics, skillinator, alfixes, and a SimWardrobe teleporter object, started the game, and the very next time I queued up the skillinator I ran into this problem. I can recreate it with college rampage, also.
All lots I have tested this on are stable and have a long history of functional BUY and skillinator.
While the macrotastics.zip file is dated 9/15, the content is dated 9/10, so I am assuming I have the latest version and that there is not a problem with the ZIP file. When I installed that package, it replaced the macrotastics.package file dated 9/8/08 (which I did not keep). BUY is dated 08/30/08 and is the latest version and replaced a version from the same day but 10 hours earlier (which I did not keep).
I have tested both dorm lots and traditional residential lots. What happens is that I will pause the game, queue up college rampage or skillinator on all sims on the lot (6+ sims), then unpause. All sims that need to use the terlet first will queue up "Be Used" and then immediately freeze. All other sims will do as they are supposed to do. The FPS will drop from 20-30 to 1-3 and "Be Used" cannot be canceled. When the game is paused, "Be Used" can be canceled. If the game is resumed, the macro will re-queue "Be Used" and the sim will remain frozen. This will repeat until the macro and BUY are canceled. BUY can be issued independently of the macro and it works. Once terlet needs have been satisfied, it is safe to use a macro.
I have Apartments. I have tried this on a combination of lots that have not been played since installing Apartments and have been played since installing Apartments. I have a dwindling selection of lots that have been played since installing Apartments but have NOT been played since installing the latest macrotastics.
I have a number of customizations installed, mostly stuff from TwoJeffs and MATY, but also some stuff from SimWardrobe and Inge. Hacks have been checked for conflicts, if you place any trust that tool. All installations into my Sims download directory are logged.

Issue should be resolved by latest BUY and Sleepclock update.

With the newest bathroom uses you controller, I'm seeing occasional loops when showering for dormies (in university dorm lots). They enter the shower, finish, you get the swoosh of changing back to regular clothes, and then they immediately woosh back to nude and start showering again...despite having full hygiene. They are not even exiting the shower. They continue to do this until I make them selectable (using testingcheats) and cancel the bathroom controller action.
I've only seen this, so far, in dorm bathrooms which are attached to a dorm room (i.e. not public). It's happened 3 times on 2 different dorms.
The specific setup is, dorm room with private bathroom attached, dorm room is not locked, someone who is NOT the person who owns the dorm room uses their shower. Shower type, if it matters, has been the "Strut Your Stuff Communal Shower" in all instances. I'm not using any hacks not from this site other than the inseminator OBJ version. Let me know if I need to do anything else or provide any other information to help.

I've had the occasional loops when showering also, but, not in Uni. I was playing one of the premade apartment families last night and had the looping but not every time they showered, just sporadically. I had to cancel out the action to get them to stop.
I have all EP's, and all stuff packs except Glamour Life, Celebrations and Happy Holiday.
This didn't happen until I installed the latest update.
