Scanner Gun hack screwy since patch?
Ancient Sim:
It probably does have to do with neatness. My neat Sims will always put the thinking cap back where they got it from, but the non-neat will put it on the nearest surface, often the kitchen worktop. Then if I don't move it quickly enough they complain that there is nowhere to prepare their meals.
ElviraGoth:
Well, it just happened again. And the sim had 7 points in neatness and level 8 cleaning skill. Scanner gun hack was out. And no sim was standing or walking in front of the sim using the gun. But it was 6 am and the other sims in the next room were getting up at the time the gun dropped to the floor. It must be something else.
Would still like to have a hack that allows the gun to be placed back on the table allotted for it.
Motoki:
If you're having the problem with or without Pescado's hack then you might as well use it. *shrug* I think it's going to be a while until he gets his NL package from Uzbekistan and starts mass updating a lot of his hacks.
I'll have to try the gun now with a sloppy sim because the one I did it with last night was very neat.
ZephyrZodiac:
Maybe it's something to do with the object being scanned?
RainbowTigress:
Are you running debug mode when this happens? If not, turn it on and see what happens. I was getting this a lot with certain lots when another sim was skilling on the Chocolate factory. The sim kept wanting to scan the invisible candies. He woudl have them in his thought bubble but then I'd get an error and if I paused it quickly enough between hitting cancel and the next error coming up, I could see what was in his thought bubble. Other things that are no longer valid by the time your sim reaches them include the carpool, school bus, etc. By the time your sim walks from the back lot to the road, they can be gone. JMP included some tweaks to fix this in his last version of the scanner gun hack, but there are still some issues, and then you throw NL and the patch into the mix.
