Sims stink. Actions are rejected


Recommended Posts

WW works fine. But my sims start to stink because I can't meet the needs. whether eating, sleeping, showering or going to the toilet. everything is rejected with a speech bubble with footprints and an X.

You don't need to turn off the cheat (that I didn't think about for one second) after placing everything anymore (I think), but you have to make sure that you don't block any paths. Pay attention to the green tiles, that appear on the floor when placing objects, as they represent the space occupied by them. A small shower needs one free tile in front of it, for example, to be accessible by your Sims. In your picture, the Sim can't go to bed, because they can't walk there, so something right next to it (like a baby bed standing near the parent's bed) is blocking their path. Half a tile of free space is usually not enough, as Sims can't squeeze through narrow passages, and they also can't always cross between tiles diagonally - well they can (or at least look like they can), but the path finding algorithm sometimes can't, so best think of "Snake" (that game on the old Nokia mobile phones) or a labyrinth (ocupied tiles being the walls) when designing more complex interiors.

 

Btw, I deleted my post from yesterday, as I completely misread what your issue is. Didn't sleep much the night before, so sorry for a completely useless reply. Hope this one's more helpful.

What Crashdown117 says....The thing with moveobjects is it allows you to place objects off grid and even half a square is enough to cause routing errors.I placed a sofa once and even though it looked like there was enough room to move in front of and behind said sofa my sims would not walk past it or sit on it...….

Kinda funny, that exact same thing happened to me once and is why I know about this stuff now.
