Question about Teleporter Shrub plus
moniquinin:
Not sure where I should post this since posting it in Jordi's thread would be serious necromancy. It's not working properly for me (I think it's not anyway) -- I can't summon some townies. I'm under the impression that it does work for the Pets EP, but not sure. In the description in the catalog, it says to summon townies I need to look under a surname (cannot remember which one) and that all townies have the same surname, but thing is, this surname does not appear as one of the choices in the menus.
Any suggestions?
jrd:
All households are under one surname. In an unmodded game without expansions, this will be Bendett for townies. Installing any name mod or any expansion pack, changes this last name.
So this is normal :-)
Look for any surname not owned by a playable household. This could be one of the following:
-Townies
-Downtownies
-Service NPCs (cops, waiters, etc.)
I usually use SimPE to change the household name of these groups to what they are.

I actually did check out all the surnames I did not recognise and still couldn't find the one first name I was looking for. I clicked on "Friends" thinking it was a category (which would have made it easy) but only two guys came up, both of which I didn't recognise. Does this mean "Friends" is a surname? I also looked under default to see what that was about. I'll keep on looking. I did recently install a "better names for pets" mod.
Anyway, thanks for your help :)
jrd:
Any name appearing in there is a household name, so you must have some lot which at one point held Sims surnamed Friends :-)

It's the name of a household in Academie Le Tour. In Uni, household names can be independent of surnames. (ETA: the two household members in this case are named Mitch Indie and Max Flexor, if I recall correctly.)
