Sim can't reach the beach...

numaari:
I originally posted this in the sandcastle hack thread, but thought I'd also put it here.

I have a house with 3 adults, 1 child.  Everyone can get to the beach except Dad.  He was a werewolf, and I thought he might have something stupid like hydrophobia, so I cured him of lycanthropy.  Nope.  I tried leveling the bumps to the beach.  No.  I tried forcing an error on him.  Not that, either.  Everyone else has no problems at all.

It may be significant that he is the only one that learned how to teleport while he was on his honeymoon.  *shrugs*  I feel kinda bad for him.  He used to swim and beach comb a lot.  The icon comes up, and he sometimes can walk a bit, then it seems like a fence is blocking him.  I've tried manually routing him, but that doesn't work.

UPDATE:  I tried nuking and fixing every damn thing on the lot via the lot debugger.  No go.  I also noticed that he wiggles a bit as he reaches his "limit"  (about where the grass lawn begins turning into sand).  Then the icon disappears and he turns to go do something else.

Frick:
you need the Fixx to let them Reach the Beach?

I'm sorry.

I find it strange that it affects only one sim. Have you tried the 'moveobjects on, delete sim, save, quit' routine? I wouldn't do it on a vacation lot, because I don't know much about BV yet, so I wouldn't know if that worked on a vacation home.

SimPe is still not updated, so you can't even go into it to peek at the poor sim-fellows data.

If all else fails, and no one else has any idea you can always buy a beach lot. At least the poor simmie-guy will be able to do beach things.

I wish I could be of more help, Numaari.

For reference, there are several other posts here from some of us having the same issue. So far, it's only with sims that learned to teleport. I had the same thing with my founder. She was fine until she hit elder, but then all the sudden she could barely get anywhere...I had to teleport her from the 1st story to the basement, yard to beach, and she ended up losing her job due to the fact that she kept missing the carpool...couldn't get to it unless I remembered to teleport her out.

And yeah, nothing fixes it. Debugger...nah. Stuck object remover placed virtually everywhere...nah. Manualnavigation...nah.

veilchen:
Thanks for the information Zazazu. And here I was, getting a trifle cranky because my simmies couldn't find the Ninja and wanted to learn teleportation. I guess I was just lucky.
