The serving of room service annoys me as well. And with buy mode controls being disabled, there's no way to pick up the serving tray and just move it someplace else.


boolprop dormSpecificToolsDisabled false

Reennables buy mode, at least temporarily, whenevr it is normally disabled, such as when playing a dorm, community lot, or hotel, during a fire, burglary, or social worker visit.

If the lot allows you to use  the eyedropper on ce the above  cheat is entered, you can get into Build Mode by using the eyedropper tool o a build mode object, such as a door.


My own dissattisfactions include:

"Assign...Be Masseusse" doesn't seem to work.

THere doesn't seem to be a way to force a Sim you don't control to leave a tent, short of Force Error. In a test business lot, I  put a  tent down, and one of the employees entered it. Even though I dismissed all the employees soon afterwards, she remained in the tent until I force Errored her out.


Possibly the new norandomcrushes has fixed this,, but I was a bit stunned to realize that the tent option  "Chat With [Sim]" was a Romantic Interaction,.

Strangely, the Food Stands gnerate an NPC when placed on an owned business, which make  a vague amount osf snse as you couldn't get a  Sim or Employee in there otherwise.

Some more annoyances:

Sims have now started dropping certain skill-building user-directed actions autonomously. I tell them to paint, they do for a bit then suddenly decide that because their bladder motive is halfway down they're going to stop and start chatting to their family member who is supposed to be skilling charisma on the bathroom mirror but who has also stopped. This never used to happen, if you instructed them to skill build they used to carry on until they were ready to drop (or wet themselves, whichever). I've noticed that logic building actions don't have this problem.

Room service doesn't work for me. I ordered it, waited and waited and nothing materialised.

Everyone think rain is the most fasinating thing ever again. Grrr >:(

The not eating together in restaurants is annoying, but I can see why they set it up like that because you don't want one hungry sim forcing all your non-hungry sims into eating because they only eat as a group.

Also one last problem. Yesterday I sent two sims on a honeymoon, when they left their house (which had other sims living in it) I expected it to save the home lot. If it did the game gave no indication that this is what it was doing. The sims then arrived at the hotel and checked in. At this point I had to go out so I saved and went to quit. When I pressed quit a dialogue box came up, and assuming it was the standard "Are you sure?" box I automatically went to hit yes. Unfortunately it was just as I hit yes that I realised the box actually said "Are you sure you want to quit from here? If you...." That's all I got before the box vanished. So was the box telling me that the original home lot hadn't been saved and that I needed to finish the vacation and head back home in order for everything to be saved? I really hope not, but I guess I'll find out later when I play.

Karen:
Why is it that the witch doctor's hut (secret location) doesn't save its state from one visit to the next?  So every time you go there with a new family, you have to waste time fixing/replacing all the broken crap in his house yet again.  At least with the other vacation lots, changes you make during gameplay are saved.

pioupiou:
That is normal : it is a community lot so changes are not saved, and your next sims to go can fix everything so that the witch doctor wants to give them the voodoo doll. Only hotels save changes in my gameplay experience, not ordinary vacation community lot.
The 2 other secret lot will behave the same as the witch doctor one, again so that different sims can go and grab the reward....

Karen:
Hmm....I guess I'll have to try again.  I couldn't get the witch doctor to do anything at all, even after all the broken stuff was repaired.  All he wants to do is sleep.  Do you initiate the interaction, or does the witch doctor come to your Sim to offer the voodoo doll?
