Unfulfillable wants
gali:
You will never get the cut scene, if you combine the teen with an existing sim. That's why I always move them first to the dorm (I never use dorms), only to get the cut scene, pause the game, move the YA back to the students bin, and only then combine him with the sim.
The first time I sent 2 siblings to the college, I moved the first to an empty house - and got the cut scene. When I combined the second with the first - I didn't get the cut scene. From then on - I keep that each teen receives his cut scene, by moving him to an empty house or an empty dorm, then I can move him back to the bin and combine him with the chosen sim.
J. M. Pescado:
No Telepathy isn't the cause of the remote want fulfillment problem: It's a bug introduced, I think, in Uni: Indirect Want-fulfilment is buggy and does not consistently function correctly when the wanting sim is not instantiated on the lot. Meaning if your parent/relative/friend is PRESENT for the wedding, the college enrollment, the graduation (not the party!), etc., they get the credit, but if they're not at the event, they won't remember it. Meaning a family sim can very easily be cheated out of LTWs like Graduate children, Marry off children, etc.
Ancient Sim:
Happens to Popularity Sims, too. I had one achieve her Lifetime Want of 20 Best Friends at a wedding on someone else's lot. The message box came-up to tell me she'd done it and she had the 20 BF memory, plus her Lifetime Want changed, but no special icon in her memories and no permanent platinum. I had to remove the 20 BF memory and untick a couple of BF ticks in SimPE so I could get it to register on her own lot. This is a baddie insofar as there is no control over what happens on another lot and it's not always easy to keep track of who is near achieving what.
ZephyrZodiac:
Only answer to that, I guess, is to make sure they achieve it while at college, as you do have control over them appearing at other lots - they don't just roll up after work. And if you use the Autoyak, it's amazing how quickly the friends turn into best friends!
Ancient Sim:
She was still at college! She went to the wedding of two of her former friends on campus. I hadn't played her dorm for a while so didn't realise how close she was. I should have known really, she's a phone stalker and is friends with practically everybody in the neighbourhood. Most of her best friends were 0/0 when she started. That's what you get by using boolrop to let a zombified Sophie Miguel have a child.
