Sims appearing on lot after a phone call.
Hook:
Pes, since you never allow a relationship to decay below 98 before having a macro call everyone, you'll never have had the problems of multiple friends trying to call you at 4 pm.
I've occasionally seen Sims teleported to the lot after the game resets, but I've never seen it happen otherwise.

I've actually been lurking here for the better part of year before I finally signed up, and since getting the shiny new laptop have tried to keep my game relatively hack -free. (No, really. Stop laughing.) This, of course, failed the moment i discovered the awesomeness of the More Awesome (as found under the directory for Redundant Department of Redundancy), so I have Awesome hacks...and some clothes that are less awesome.
This 'appearing sim' trick, that would make a magician green with envy, is something new as I haven't encountered it before seasons. It's not a problem really, I'm just curious about why...and will my neighborhood implode?

Probably. Suddenly appearing sims may materialize in the basement and get stuck and die. Also it's the sign of a deeper problem. Try the Phone Hack, perhaps this fixes it?

You should definitely be getting a dialog box asking whether the date should be at home or on a community lot, and this should be the first thing after the phone call. If you are not getting that, then something is broken.
No, only if you ask them out. If they call you they always want to go downtown.
Thanks, this is great!
And here I thought I was responding to this post:

I'm not sure if this is a glitch, but it sounds sort of related. When I'm playing, my sim teens can no longer go on dates. They'll get permission, call up the sim, I get the box saying "cool" and all that...and then right after the kid hangs up, the date walks on to the property like they've been called to come over. Kid never shows up later with the car. They just show up on the lot after I call.
Sneak out still works though...so I suppose all my simteens will have to make do. Darn. It's not a big deal, but i'm wondering as to why this is happening. If it's related to the mysteriously appearing sims thing above.

When a teenage sim asks permission to go out they can then phone a Friend and they go out exactly the same as sneaking out except they do it during the day with no risk. Its been in the game since before Nightlife and Downtown even existed and has nothing to do with Dates or Outings, there something different. So his problem is he calls his friend and asks to "go out" then instead of his friend turning up to pick him up in his car then leaving the lot for a few hours, the sim is coming around as if he was invited over. Ive never had this problem myself though, just thought I would clear it up..
As for the Teleporting sims I used to get that a lot, but I haven't really noticed it since installing Seasons (I don't have pets). I don't play Pop sims as much now, so my sims tend to have less than the usual 20+ best friends so that might also be why :P
Arynshiar:
Yes, that's it exactly. They just walk on by, no date at all. Poor poor simteens, doomed to forever live their teenage ...weeks out as bad girls/boys who sneak out at any chance, but never get to go on a single date.
So anyways, checking out JM's phone hack, will see if that fixes things.
