OFB and Uniforms

<< < (3/6) > >>

Doc Doofus:
Well, I just did some more testing. If you just assign them new work clothes (i.e., without saving a new template uniform), you get the same problem. Perhaps this is because I'm using a Sim employee already borked by previous set-uniforms.  I haven't tried that with a new employee.

Also, to correct myself, fire then rehire doesn't fix the problem, either.  Apparently they remember their assigned uniform while they are fired.  When you hire them back, they don't wear it automatically at first, but they do the next day, or if another Sim family visits the lot.  Annoying as all hell!

I'll try selecting the Sim employee and changing their appearance in the mirror and see if that is remembered on future visits.

MY GOAL here was always just to set up a cool restaurant with Townies that I liked as the employees and one playable Sim as the manager, and then never play him again.  Then I could send my other Sim families to visit it on outings and dates.  However, if I'm stuck forever with bald faces when other Sims visit the lot, that ruins my fun.

This is a really fucked problem.  I can't believe nobody ever tried to solve it.

Business Runs You can deassign uniforms from sims on the lot, or even all sims on and off the lot, so that this "carryover" save does not occur.

Doc Doofus:
Ah, thank you J.M.  Will download that ASAP and restart my game!

SpaceDoll:
I've never used uniforms for this reason, but always wanted to.  So, is it just not fixable?  Or does no one care enough?

Tried that, but whenever I select an employee to do that and then make them unselectable again, they become just a regular customer instead of an employee.

Something I've done for businesses that use non-playable employees is to assign them a new outfit and give them a makeover on another lot.  This means that they are always in "uniform", but I don't mind much.
