Title: Busted Stairs Post by: kytyngurl on 2007 February 05, 07:07:14 I'm using one of the Brixham dorms I got over at MTS2, and while I love the building I've had some issues with the stairway. Somehow, it seems to be broken. No one can go up it, and it's unusable. I've tried resetting the object, but no go. Ditto for moving a sim out and then back in. I think in another neighborhood, I used this dorm and had the exact same problem, too.
So what can I do? I did a search of the forums but nothing turned up. I'm hoping to avoid having re-zone the loat, re-place the stairs, and then rezone it again (...stupid unmodifyable even when no one is living there dorms!). Will this happen again? Thank you!

If not... then turn on build mode, use the hammer tool (if you have Pets) and delete the stairs. Then put back new ones. It might be better to use the multi tile ones (or whatever you call 'em) instead of the whole staircase ones. I vaguely recall that the tiled ones allows multiple sims to walk up and down it, because each individual tile is considered a separate object, I think ??? as opposed to the whole staircase being a single object (which as a result, is considered totally occupied or "in use" when a single sim goes up or down).

I was fearing that. Better go dig up the cheat for lot zone changing. Build Mode in Dorms has no stairways, stupidly enough. Title: Re: Busted Stairs Post by: purplehaze on 2007 February 05, 08:40:35 You don't have to change the lot zoning. Just use the buy/build mode unlock:
boolprop dormspecifictoolsdisabled false It will enable build/buy mode. ;) Title: Re: Busted Stairs Post by: kytyngurl on 2007 February 05, 11:07:05 My hero! :D
