Another restocking problem

[tnt]

I have tried looking for this particular problem that I am having. My sim owns a flower shop that sells mostly flowers out of the catalog. He never had a problem restocking these flowers but now whenever he goes to restock he gets charged for restocking the item but the item never shows up. I now have to manually restock the items. Has anyone else encounterd a situtation like this?

You're probably suffering from the misplaced restock sign bug. Look in one of the four corners of the lot: the flowers may have appeared there.
What expansions (including stuff packs) do you have?

Jordi, thanks. The restock signs were misplaced. I have ep1-3, I don't have any of the stuff packs. Is there a fix for this?

It is supposedly fixed in FFS/GLS and Pets (EP4)… I think Numenor did a port of the FFS code to OFB, but not sure if this works or not.

I have all expansion packs and none of the stuff packs, and I used Numenor's fix for a loong time and it didn't make too much difference, as I understand now. I played with fix/without, with CC/without and it still happened occasionally, but I couldn't trace any pattern. It's completely random I think. And I don't remember getting an error log for this. It's strange that with no CC and/or hacks at all, original items still disappear from shelves and signs end up in the wierdest places.
