Sandcastle fix?

(1/4) > >>

seapup:
I noticed that TwoJeffs has released a fix for sandcastles. Quote from RTFM: "Fixes Sandcastles so they properly delete themselves instead of littering the lot with stuck invisible objects." I havent seen this issue being discussed anywhere else. Is it an issue, and is an awesome fix in the works, or should we just grab TwoJeffs fix?

Emma:
I'd grab TJ's fix. Pescado won't bother if someone else has already done it. What's the point?

jolrei:
I've noticed piles of sand where 'castles have been destroyed, and any 'castles built tend to stick around on beach hotel lots.  Have not noticed 'stuck' invisible sandcastles (perhaps that's because they're invisible).  This might explain the lack of discussion, but does not mean it's not an issue.

Yea, but it might become an issue, like the 'never cleaned hotel rooms' we've discussed in another thread here. It appears that hotels act more like dorms than comm lots, and don't completely reset between uses. So unmade beds, dirty toilets and day-old dinner plates just keep mounting up until the whole hotel looks like a run-down motel on a road the interstate passed by. The never-dying sandcastles are probably another manifestation of this.

Alright then, too many negatives (like the word "not") in my post - my meaning was that it probably was an issue.  Anyhow, I've downloaded the sandcastles hack and can hopefully avoid any problems before I even notice them.  The 'never cleaned hotel rooms' is one of my big annoyances now - one of my sims ended up cleaning up for half a sim day.  On another day, I did see an NPC maid touring through the hotel, but when my sims went back to their rooms, the dirty plates from breakfast were still there, although the maid had apparently cleaned the bathroom and made the beds.  She seems to have a blind spot for plates.
