That reminds me - Ricky Cormier died in my game as well, thanks to JM's murderous In Russia The Toilet Uses You - sims really do die waiting to go!
Yes, I've heard about that.  Mine are always been told to queue when they don't actually need to go, often when they've just BEEN.  I had a pregnant Sim kept being forced back into the toilet when her bladder and hygiene had both just been dealt with, but her hunger level was dangerously low.  By the time she'd made and served a meal, she dropped dead of starvation before she could eat it. Luckily, her boyfriend was able to reason with the Reaper.  I am now removing all toilet paper from lots with pregnant Sims on them!

It used to be a little more twitchy than it is now. Formerly it would consider 80 bladder worth peeing, and the problem with high-drain sims is that they'd lose more than 20 points of bladder while showering. The current version lowers this to a much lower 60.

I have the newer version; works like a charm.

It's still sort of twitchy. I've had sims keel over in the bathroom (got stuck, not sure how) and when I send a second sim in to plead, the first thing the second sim does is insist on using the bathroom. Had two sims die on account of this "must use bathroom! I'll plead later!" thing. Now I immediately switch into buy mode and get rid of it if I need someone to plead in the bathroom, then put it back when they're finished.

I dunno why somebody would get stuck and actually keel over in the bathroom, given that if you give a handmove order and X out the controller, the controller will not override the move order that is queued after. Or why your sim is "stuck". What kind of bathroom did you make?
