Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT?
« on: 2008 March 03, 09:45:57 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

My sim wished for beauty from the genie, as I was curious what it would do.

Now sims are ringing her doorbell day and night.

I routinely nuke attraction markers after playing every lot.  After playing this one lot (for 3 days, with no off-lot trips), I noticed that there were 19 attraction markers to be nuked - so it seems anyone who knows her or walks by on the lot is getting an attraction marker for her.

Is there a way to undo the beauty wish, so I can put a stop to this?

Marry her off to one of the stalkers, who then kills her in a jealous rage.


EDIT: Bonus points for killing him off via her ghost.

According to the L&P guide quotes on the BBS, the effect wears off in four days.

 Cheesy Be Careful what you wish for. I think she got the "backfired" result they talked about in the chat- the backfires don't seem to be mentioned in the L&P Guide.

Stupid question: what exactly are the attraction markers, and why are they important?

They are the markers that keep track of who each sim farts hearts over.

The reason I routinely delete them is because they can be passed along as gossip, then sims will fart hearts when they think of another sim's gossip memory.  I.E. Joe will fart hearts over Mary, and later talk about it to Fred who will pick it up as gossip.  Fred will then randomly seem to be farting hearts about Mary, even though Fred is not attracted to Mary - when he gets the fart hearts thought bubble about Mary, he is in fact thinking that Joe farts hearts at Mary.

I mentioned them in my original post to note that EVERY sim who walked past on the lot was getting attraction markers for my sim.  This is unusual behaviour, and I thought it might be related to (or a part of) the problem.

It gets really weird when Sims start farting hearts over themselves or their immediate family members.

It's even weirder when it's a toddler, or an inanimate object (such as a sentry bot) farting the hearts.

Such weirdness is why I routinely clear the attraction markers.

The Beauty wish is temporary and seems to go away eventually.

Not a stupid question I was gonna ask the same thing if I got to the end without knowing!

Could you please share how one goes about nuking these markers, Kyna?

It's an option on the Lot Debugger (ffsdebugger, found in the www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/ subdirectory of your choice). So many buttons!
It's even weirder when it's a toddler, or an inanimate object (such as a sentry bot) farting the hearts.

Such weirdness is why I routinely clear the attraction markers.
Like last night, when Dylan came over to visit his parents, sister, and cousin and was talking to his cousin Derek over Don't Wake the Llama. Derek (child) was talking to the Dylan about woohoo, then a fart-heart about Dylan's wife. Either he's a future Romance sim, or he was getting The Talk.
