Title: Trapped at the Double Palm Post by: eve_ftw on 2008 January 30, 03:21:31 I THINK that's the name of it, pretty sure, haven't played it today... but is anyone else having this problem? Every time I check my sims into the Double Palm Resort hotel whatever, they get trapped upstairs. I can't find any reason for it, but they simply won't go back down the steps. The only way I can get them out is to have them call a taxi to go somewhere, then they "poof" into the taxi. Very irritating, any ideas?

Pre-made Eaxis houses/motels/hotels/lots are buggy or just don't "flow" right sometimes.

Don't forgot to change the lot back to a hotel after you fix it.Title: Re: Trapped at the Double Palm Post by: doren on 2008 February 05, 16:10:53 Yea, a lot of them are made with regular stairs instead of the modular stairs, so two sims can't use them at the same time. I go through and replace them with modular stairs whenever I can. Now that's interesting. I don't like the regular stairs and so have never noticed that there is a difference between them and the modular stairs.

Don't forgot to change the lot back to a hotel after you fix it. Actually, you're better off using the dormbuild cheat -- there's apparently things that can go wrong wiht the changelotzoning trick, but the dormbuild cheat works just fine with hotels (I guess they borrowed a lot of the dorm code for them), and is probably safer. |
