Title: Kicked out sims vanished, not in neighborhood??? Post by: Rainne on 2009 July 11, 02:31:46 I'm hoping one of you awesome people can help me.
I had a family with three kids. One of them got married and I kicked out the newlyweds, and was able to follow them with a camera to a house where they moved in, and they now show up on the neighborhood view just like any other friends. Then a second one got married, and I kicked out that bunch, but they just vanished halfway down the block, and now they don't show up anywhere on the neighborhood screen. Help! How can I find and track these people? I tried using the "bless" command with awesomemod, which as I understood it was supposed to put a halo on the screen where they are. This also does not happen. I am confooooooooozed. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated! :) Title: Re: Kicked out sims vanished, not in neighborhood??? Post by: J. M.

When you're moving them out, you pick "house" instead of "kick out". In which case you buy a house from them out of the fambly funds, and then they go live there.Title: Re: Kicked out sims vanished, not in neighborhood??? Post by: Rainne on 2009 July 11, 03:11:37 No, I know about that. Here's the thing - when I moved the last family out, i tried to move them into a house, the pomeranian or something, in Riverview, but the game wouldn't let me move them in; it kept saying the house needed enough bed space and at least one refrigerator. Well, it HAD a double bed (there were only 2 of them, newlyweds) and it had a fridge. So I couldn't get them to move. But then when I used "kick out", they moved into an expensive house that the family couldn't have afforded.
So that's why I used "kick out" this time; I thought it would move them into a random house like it did the last set. I see that it did not, I have no idea why; most likely I am Doing It Wrong but I have no idea why. Anyway, now that the others are townies, is there any way to un-Townie them?

Pregnant sims count as 3 people.But then when I used "kick out", they moved into an expensive house that the family couldn't have afforded. Yes, and that exploit was fixed in AwesomeMod: Sims are no longer allowed to magically acquire a million dollars and move into an expensive house after being kicked out onto the street.So that's why I used "kick out" this time; I thought it would move them into a random house like it did the last set. I see that it did not, I have no idea why; most likely I am Doing It Wrong but I have no idea why. Because that exploit was fixed, so you can't abuse the system like that anymore.Title: Re: Kicked out sims vanished, not in neighborhood??? Post by: Rainne on 2009 July 11, 03:20:57 Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that explains it. I must have moved the first set before I updated AwesomeMod.
Thank you, Pescado. My lack of understanding has now been rectified. :) |
