Title: Age transition broken for vacation world residents
Post by: Solmyr on 2010 August 28, 16:20:27
So I have an odd problem. Vacation world residents are aging, but their age category transitions never trigger, so they always remain in the age category they started, and never die. Has anyone encountered a bug like this?

How are you monitoring this? Normally, vacationworld aging is supposed to resolve itself when you visit the vacationworld. Are you trying to "peek" using third-party tools to see stuff you shouldn't normally see?

I use Twallan's Master Computer to check sim status, but I can see it regularly as well. My sim's Chinese wife's parents have been adults since the beginning of the game, while her brother (their son) became an elder and quickly died while visiting Sunset Valley once (so apparently the age transition does trigger but only in rare cases). In the meantime I've been visiting China for weeks (my first sim advanced from YA to VERY old elder in this time), and yet none of the Chinese residents aged up, they are still the same age they started at (I've specifically looked at the special merchant in China, who starts as an elder, and he is still alive and at the same age in my game).

I'm wondering if Twallan's story progression is somehow responsible as I have it enabled for vacation worlds, but Twallan claims aging works fine for him, so... Only other age-related mod I have is Rule of 6 from this site.

That's just an XML that affects the soft-tunable durations, it doesn't change the process of whether they age at all.

I also use Twallan's Story Progression/Super Computer and Rule of 6.  I do not have any problems with aging in my game that I have noticed.  Could something else be affecting your game?
