Can't fufill "Graduate 3 Children" want?

(1/2) > >>

So I just graduated Alexander Goth's three kids, with 4.0 averages to boot, and his lifetime want isn't fufilling. I even invited all the kids over and had them talk to him for a bit, and I saved and exited and reloaded the house. Nothing. Is it because they moved into their own houses afterwards, instead of moving in with him, or because they didn't throw a party, just moved out with their phones, some kind of bug (probably) or is it a hack problem?
I have most Flying Fish hacks, and some of twojeff's, but the only one I can think of that might conflict would be no20k, since it would affect some kind of a check when they graduate and go into the bin, I think. I have the box that allows you to change lifetime wants, but it's never even been placed in Alex's house, though one of the kids that graduated used it once. Or twice.

Known Uni bug. Indirect Want Satisfaction is mildly borked. This has been reported with other indirect wants also, where they only reliably work if the wanter is on the lot at the time it happens. What this means is that in order for Graduate 3 Sims, Marry off 6 sims, etc., to be satisfied properly, it has to happen while the wanting sim is instanced in the game, in this case, when you return from your final. It's kind of broken, and I don't really see a good solution.

Ptt. Oh well, I like the grey tombstones better than the platinum anyway, and I'm about to let the old 'tard die.

schmoopee:
I have a sim who has the three-college-grad-kids want, and she went platinum after only two of them graduated .. the third still lived at home, aduh! Her neice did graduate and she had a memory of that, so I'm thinking that must have been what satisfied it. *shrug*

J. M. Pescado:
I think all of the memory-count wants are a little dodgy. I had a sim get the "20 best friends" want satisfaction, without actually having 20 best friends, and without it actually going away. And the "Woohoo With Everyone" want gets satisfied without a memory, even though there's supposed to be one.

I'll look into making a fix for Graduate 3 children on the Lot Debugger.
