Deadly expensive hot tubs
purplehaze:
I haven't put it in because this is a nice way to cull the fuglies from my dorm without me having to do the dirty deed. What I am more interested in is the change in gameplay from invulnerability to kill mark. Maybe the game code is seeing fugly and zapping the blighters! :P BTW...I am also having a lot of dormies struck by lightning. One in (about) twenty seems to die. I'm a Uni player, so my experiences come from that type of gameplay. I've done quite a few outings Downtown, and haven't witnessed your problem... yet. But, I will keep an eye out for it. I'd hate to lose a playable that way. And the ghost car...that's just bizarre.

Incidentally... and anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong... but I think the dormie "invulnerability" is a bit of a misnomer. I don't think that dormies couldn't never die... it's just that, the way the dorm controller code worked was, it always sent dormies to "bed" at certain times closer to the evening. While dormies are in "stasis" inside their rooms, their motives are all pretty much automagically refreshed. So, they are hardly ever hungry or sleepy. I think the nodormieinvulnerability hack simply makes it so that dormies' motives aren't always refreshed like that. So even when they go into their rooms, they can come out and actually be hungry and tired or have full bladders, leading to the constant passing out, pissing themselves, and sometimes even death (typically by starvation). This pretty much happens usually when more than one motive is totally depleted (in the red).
Anyhew, I definitely would like to see a fix for this extreme lightning death situation as well. That just seems really ridiculous... on the other hand, it was kind of amusing, so merci beaucoup for sharing MissDoh. I especially like the spooky ghost car thing. Hehehe. :D

Until/unless they fix this, don't visit either P.U.R.E. or Lulu Lounge. Both have unprotected hot tubs (4 in P.U.R.E.'s case). Visitors to community lots seem to be immune to both hot tub overheating and exercise overheating, which is good. One of my favorite custom lots has six hot tubs and a few treadmills.

Oh I must admit I lmao at 1st but after seeing it again and again, the joke was getting old. I knew the pics would speak for themselves. :P Glad you enjoyed them ;D
Did anybody try swimming while there is a storm? I am concern about the odds of that situation too.

I had a sim gaining body in a swimming pool at the time of the incident mentioned above, and lightning never struck the water (weird, considering it is a larger body of water). The lot was wolfsim68's Stoneyville Community Pool. I'm going to stick a few lightning rods on community lots to avoid problems.
