Three last questions, I swear this is it

more things to do to mess up your hood:
9. make a habit of saving lots while you have loads of visitors on site and your sims are in the middles of things
10. save while ghosts are out and about, then do something that causes a reset. - the tombstone for those ghosts should disappear
well I could go on.....
Aren't these two rather contradictory? I mean, the only time when households are uniformly idle, don't have visitors, or callers on the phone are when everyone is asleep, but if you have even a couple of tombstones, you also have ghosts. I have seen them haunt until almost 7am, and of course by then, half the household is awake and possibly even a carpool has arrived.
Unless I simply don't have any tombstones on the lot, I'm not sure how to achieve your description of an optimal state in which to save for a reset. ???

I thought the only issue with having more then one uni attached, was that the sim you send to college would sometimes be sent to one of the others, instead of the one you actually sent it to. It happened to me once or twice, I know of at least one other person that experienced it, and read about it somewhere else. No idea what it is that seems to trigger it, hasn't happened all that often for there to be any kind of pattern.
As far as I know, all the attached campuses use the same professors.

11. Add 3 uni's to one 'hood
Is this a character files thing? I only ever have one custom linked. Oh, and guess what? Vacation spots aren't the only ones where you have the game option to click one button and add all on. You can now do this with the three Uni's. If this is truly a VBT, add this to the list of game supported ones, along with deleteallcharacters and moving occupied lots between 'hoods.
Yes it's a character files thing - especially if you don't have cleaned file templates. It was pretty disastrous when uni was the highest EP and the character file limit was a lot lower.Quote from: seelindarun on 2007 October 02, 19:40:58

Catch 22 - situation normal! ;D Main point is to know the potential problems and avoid them where possible.
I was thinking I should add "buying a new shiny NVidia graphics card to improve performance!" ...... but I'll stick to..
16. Resurrecting the Pleasantview Bella or any other sim with incomplete data (Jsalemi reminded me of that on another thread)

Thanks seapup. I don't have the teleportation shrub so I guess I either get that or leave the family without his tombstone.
Insim has summoner options as well, if you have that.
No I don't have that either. Never wanted any of its features that I don't already have hacks for. Until now that is! I think I'll go with downloading the teleporter shrub though since it will be a lot easier to uninstall afterwards.
veilchen:
As far as uninstalling goes, the InSim Obj (object) is only one file, clearly marked, and all you have to do is take it out. The object is the science station, and even though all the spawnables show up separate in 'electronics - all' section of the buy catalog, it is only one file in your download folder.
Not trying to plug InSim, but fair is fair :D
I have the InSim Obj, and I use it when the game throws up and makes a mess. InSim is very handy to clean it up. Such as vacation days not subtracting properly, aging is not working properly, etc. It doesn't happen often, but happen it does. When you make the family pet controllable, it also works for/with the pet(s), just as the lot-debugger. I was very pleasantly surprised when the lot-debugger let me clean up the family pet's trash memory after I made the pet controllable.
