Ok, small update. My 'hour until' school and work alarms have gone away completely, nothing I have tried will bring them back. And, like I noticed before, since the firing of this notification seems directly tied to whether inactive households actually go to work/school, no one is going. I'm switching to a couple other households I play sometimes to manually send the kids to school, the rest of the little fuckers are just failing. I have been running AM storymode, and it seems to have a fallback 'go to work you idiots' as it catches many of the slackers a few hours into their shift and I get a debug message that they're going to work. School, however, is not happening.
So, does anyone with a better knowledge of the codebase know what might be making the 'hour until' alarms fail? Is there a way to retrigger them, and if so, would this start sending kids back to school as I suspect? Or am I the only one for whom these alarms just stop going off at some point?
EDIT/UPDATE: The
NRaas Standalone WorkPusher has corrected this for me. It hasn't brought back the 'hour until' alarms, but whatever, as long as it makes the sims go to work/school I'll live without them.
