All at once, things I had never experienced before started happening in my game ... such as the crazed clone situation - the first time there were about 600 - I gassed them and deleted all custom Sims from the library. The next thing to occur happened around aging up - I had two children who aged to teens. The first one went okay, but on the second, when I looked to see if she had the normal "C" to begin highschool, I was surprised to see that there was a note saying that there were "No Schools In This Town". So, to work around this I sent her to the school and manually chose "Start Highschool". You had to choose it like it was a job.
Then two of my toddlers aged into children (same thing had to be done for them). And, in the background, one of the teens had aged up autonomously aged to young adult and got a job as a test subject. Ugh! I then used Edit Sim to age her back to teen. In the midst of all this, I got the "Flagrant System Error".
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
I really had none of these problems before adding Indie to the mix. Can't wait for Awesome Story mode.
I had this happen a few times. The first couple times I had aged up toddlers and 12s in the morning. When the bus didn't come around for them, I did what you did and forced them to go to school. The third time, I thought, "Well, screw it." The next morning the bus came and they went to school all by their own selves. There was no grade penalty for the little critters, so I actually thought of it as a bonus. Instead of spending time at school, they could actually learn something at home ... just like real life! Unfortunately, it hasn't happened since.
Oh yeah, and that was before I installed ISM.
