THANKS THIS IS GREAT

Ok, here's a bug I've been noticing and its slowly driving me nuts....The school bus still comes even when the only school age child, or only child for that matter, owns a car! the sim takes the car, but the stupid bus always shows up, gets in the way of other carpools, etc....has someone seen a fix for this or noticed the same thing?Huh

noticed it also...  would be great if it were possible to fix it, but I suspect that may be rather difficult!

Same here, and it does get in the way of the carpools. But like Ness said, it seems to be a difficult problem to tackle.

Yeah, I've noticed this and complained, too. I have 4 Hall of famers living together, one car. I can select the owner of the car and click on the car to "carpool to work with all eligible sims", but the stupid yellow sportscar still comes and honks it's horn in front of my house for an hour, oblivious to this. Very annoying.

Half of the time I can't get them to carpool together and end-up with one going in the car and one in the carpool, or them both having to go at the same time in separate cars.  Seems that unless you time it exactly right, the option to get a lift vanishes.  It's a real pain.

It is a pain. I rarely get them all in the car either. I'll have 3 go in the car, but the 4th is already in the yellow car. It would be nice if you could have some kind of a household "group" for the carpool option, instead of, or in addition to, assigning one owner to a car. Did that make sense? I'm on lots of cold medication.  Tongue

I've never been able to get it right for driving the kids to school.  The action always falls out of queue, and the schoolbus honks for a freakin' hour.  I just gave up, it's not worth it to me.  Undecided

It wouldn't be nearly so bad without the incessant honking...but it would still be bad.

Justin and company all have the day off  god I hate the stupid work schedules when they are up in the high levels of a career. Justins sons are all at work as is Maria.I need Justin ,Jacob and Josh  to go to work so they can all hit perma plat.Jamie Just had 3 more  1 st Dates I let him get them to good then I end the date. I will be glad when he gets the 50th first date and goes perma plat then I can let him settle down. unfortunately  Jamie is not quite as adept at making friends as Jacob is .Jacob has 30 best friends. the honking drives me batty from the school bus  and the numerous carpools.

That's why I had Jamie switch to the Athletic career. So he can join the carpool. Now I have 5 Hall-of-Famers on that lot.
OT: What is a typical day at the office like for a "Hall of Famer", I wonder?  "Welp, gotta go...continue being famous! Don't want to waste those vacation days!". No, better yet, what is a day at the "office" like for a professional party guest? Who's your boss?

Doesn't the professional party guest have to listen to the boring whiners throwing the party who are paying him to be there?  how about holding the heads of the sims throwing up in the bushes? or checking what the teens are getting up to in the pool house?  or dancing with elderly ladies whose husbands won't or aren't there..... or calling? (Bingo, square dancing..)  or preventing damage to property from drunken louts?  or playing charades?  etc - sounds like an awful job to me!
