Title: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: Kyna on 2008 March 03, 09:45:57 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? Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT?

EDIT: Bonus points for killing him off via her ghost. Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: mitchellcjs on 2008 March 03, 17:10:46 According to the L&P guide quotes on the BBS, the effect wears off in four days.

Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: Kyna on 2008 March 04, 01:45:58 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. Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT?

It gets really weird when Sims start farting hearts over themselves or their immediate family members. Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: Kyna on 2008 March 04, 02:54:39 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. Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: Ellatrue on 2008 March 04, 02:56:33 Noted! They will be cleared!

Not a stupid question I was gonna ask the same thing if I got to the end without knowing! Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: JadeEliott on 2008 March 04, 19:46:40 Could you please share how one goes about nuking these markers, Kyna?
Title: Re: Is there a way to undo the "beauty" wish in FT? Post by: Zazazu on 2008 March 04, 20:06:57 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. 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.Such weirdness is why I routinely clear the attraction markers. |
