FFS "Batbox" Lot Debugger v2.0: NUCLEAR WAR EDITION
ZephyrZodiac:
Sounds to me like you have a furious sim at one of the portals. If you have, the only solution I found was to delete them with Move objects on.
However, you would find investing in the debugger helps improve your game anyway, especially the "Fix Broken Mood Boosts" Option, "Unblock Fridge Tiles" etc - these options only actually appear if the problem exists.
Xianah:
I thought it may have something to do with portals as all the problems are portal based really, aren't they? (i don't know very much about the inner working of the game)
But this happens on every residential lot, without fail.
I'll give it a go, thanks for your advice.

Ancient Sim, just save me from reading up everything about your reinstall - did you copy your program files over, or just your game files? If it's your program files, could I timidly suggest that it might be time for a completely fresh install? If not, then maybe if you took out all your hacks except Pescado's, see if the debugger works, then put the others back in a few at a time if it does, then you could narrow it down to the cause of the problem. (Or use SimWardrobe's hack conflict detector.)
It's a completely fresh install of base game and expansion on a brand-new pc. The only things that were copied were things personal to my game (downloads, neighbourhood files, etc.). What went into Program Files was totally and utterly fresh. I suppose it has to be something I've downloaded since. I just hate testing things because it's such a bore having to go in and out of the game. Has to be done though, can't do without this facility.

I'm sure it's just an Ancient Sim thing.
You are probably right, but this doesn't exactly HELP me, does it. I suppose I have to admit that I have probably done something ridiculously un-awesome, for which (I suppose) I deserve to suffer.
ZephyrZodiac:
I've found that frequently first time of installation, something just doesn't get copied into the game correctly, and things go haywire, but that doesn't really explain why the debugger wouldn't work, does it? I think you'll just have to roll up your sleeves and start sorting through all your hacks till you find the culprit (obviously, start with the non-awesome!) But if it's a hack conflict, have you tried using the hack conflict detector from simWardrobe? It just might save you a whole lot of hard work!
RainbowTigress:
Ancient Sim: I would start by moving all hacks to another folder EXCEPT just JM's hacks, or even just the lot debugger by itself. Start the game, go get a cup of coffee, take the dog out, or whatever, then go into your lot and see if the problem persists. Whether it does or not, do not save, exit without saving. If the options appear as they should, then that tells you that there is a conflict with another hack. If they don't, then you know something else is happening. But don't save your game without your hacks in place, because funny things can happen. Just enter the lot long enough to see if the problem is solved or not.
Oh, and double check that you have debug mode on, just to be sure. ;)
