Deadly expensive hot tubs

I've been putting lightning finials on all my lots, but still seeing lightning strike. Maybe the problem is they have to be at ground level. I've been putting them on rooftops. You know, where you'd normally see a lightning rod?
I thought of that, to give you an idea, I put 3 lightning finial on that perticular community lot: 1 on the roof, 1 in the parking and one on the grass. It still insist on hitting the hot tub. :-X

Wow - that is great. Can I use that in a story - ooo even better, I'm going to give it a try. Thanks for that.
Knock yourself out, this "bug" isn't my property.

Just tried it myself on a residential lot and got my test family killed. Better stay out of the hot tubs when it's storming...
Thanks, I won't need to try it myself this evening.
BTW the main problem here is that my playable can die on community lots, I cannot do anything about it (other than either removing all my hot tubs or try the ffs debugger to regain control) and are driving back home looking like a ghost. This should definitely not happened and for me it is a major bug. Before I ressurect that sim, I loaded the community lot and indeed the tombstone of the dead sim was there. Once resurrected, it was no longer there so the process of resurrecting does work properly. Yes I could put the hot tubs inside but my lots are not design that way and hot tubs should go outside not inside.

The main interest is that you get the car going home by itself - that'll go in a story.

I saw three townies get hit with lightning on a community lot with the same hottub recently. The third townie got hit twice - straight again after climbing out - and died. It's the first time a non-playable has died on a community lot for me. Lightning rods are becoming a must and apparently too much of a requirement. The percentage of lightning strikes in hot tubs needs tweaking.

I've had the same experience...only in dorms. I am the proud owner of 6 tombstones of dormies on just one lot. 5 died from combustion from the hottub ( I didn't extinguish, as they were polluting the gene pool :P ) and 1 lighting strike. What ever happened to dormie invulnerability?
ETA: this happened in one play session lasting approx. 4 hours and I can't even count how many times my playable had to extinguish burning Sims.

Purplehaze, Pescado made a mod so sims won't combuste that easily, it is called warmth fix.
You should take a peek at it. :P
