Vampire motives on owned community lots since BV
sloppyhousewife:
Since BV, the vampires can stay on the lot forever now, when they are occupied with something. I had one of the grand vampires play mahjong for over 48 hours (I had to kick her out at last, but was polite enough to wait for the night), another one stayed in the hot spring (?) until about 10 am before he realised that he should be in his coffin. Pre-BV, they ran off the lot at 7 am like their pants were on fire (which was the case, of course), and I really miss that.
Oh, and my sims' motives seem to get reset as soon as they enter the business lot, which is pretty annoying.
Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that?

No, to be honest, I haven't. I was in the Far East with some sims and one of the locals was really getting on my nerves. So I changed her into a vampire (via Debug Mode) and she ran like hell off the lot as she started to steam. Maybe it's the being occupied bit that does it. Shame - I liked seeing them steaming lightly while they were inside walking past the windows.

Yes, that's what I think, too - but pre-BV, they were never that occupied that they didn't notice the sun rising.

I don't remember them doing that, the steam was only outside.

I think to varying degrees it has always been that way. EXACTLY how it works depends on if you have Vampire Fixes installed or not. Without it, "Hiss at Sun" reaction occurs (stomping all queues) at 0700, anytime the sim is inside (and only inside, outside is unaffected). With it, this happens outside instead. For some reason I thought it made no sense as originally set, as if they were OUTSIDE, they'd be totally oblivious to it until the next queue action.

Can we elaborate more under the circumstances this happens? Define "reset", and are you entering the sim's business lot, or someone else's business lot? What combination of stuff do you have on it?
