IsabellaMoringard Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I did delete first but issue persisted. I'm assuming it is a conflict with one of my other myriad mods but wanted to check first before 50/50 things. 1 Link to comment

If it doesn't "overwrite it correctly" then it could also not write it correctly when there's nothing to overwrite, which means you should probably replace your failing drive before you experience a fatal hardware crash. 10 hours ago, Nodd12 said: when my sims got an invite, whole family join to the lot, anyone got the same issue? Yes, although I couldn't really test which mod exactly is the culprit. It happened when I updated my mods together with the new WW public release, or at least that's when I noticed it. It pulls sims even out of work and all active sims on the lot with you. Edit: Sounds like it is indeed this mod. Edited December 29, 2022 by Dark Thoughts Link to comment

I had a chance to check and it was this mod. I have updated the mod and water no longer gets sims drunk. The other drinks that don't get sims drunk are: cream cola and Rootbeer float. 23 hours ago, IsabellaMoringard said: I'm having the same issue, all liquids trigger the drunk effects.

The general rule that recommends that "old files be deleted" before installing is sometimes, creators change the name of the file. And then there are additional files leftover which causes errors. So you're both right. Old files are automatically overwritten by the new file as long as the name doesn't change. Basically it's about coming up with a routine for users (who have varying experience) and trying to avoid errors, veterans like us wouldn't make. Link to comment
jrmy0413 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 @Dark Thoughts @bbytesi was just advice on what i do with my mods i'm sure there's other people more experienced than i am i thought i would just give my two cents and try and help out try and ask some troubleshooting basic questions and go from there. sorry if any information was wrong. 1 Link to comment

It's something I pay close attention to anyway as I try to keep my mod folder organized. I also have to pay a little more attention under Linux, as my file system allows me to copy & paste invisible line breaks (\n) from the titles on this website. Something I discovered recently when I tried to copy a mods title into a newly created folder, which caused mods not to load properly, because the game added it to the file path, even though it was not visible within the folder name. I believe it's probably better to advise people to pay more attention to that as well, as it otherwise causes misinformation to spread like the one above, and people not really learning the in and outs of the systems they are using. Media competency is already dropping to boomer type levels with the younger generations & with how seemingly easy those otherwise complex machines are to use. So I think it should be encouraged to learn more about them and likewise give the stranger on the other end the benefit of the doubt that they do have the capabilities to actually learn it as well, instead of going for the quick & easy answer. 1 Link to comment

skarrd Posted December 29, 2022 Author Share Posted December 29, 2022 I've added a "KNOWN BUGS" on the first post and acknowledge the "travel" bug and the "ghost buff" bug to save people from going through the 50/50 method to figure out which. It's this mod. Link to comment

The patreon version has these bugs as well. I've narrowed down whats causing it and its a function I used to make the drinking alcohol system on and the extra context embracing and kiss buffs. I've made a report with the tool creator. I'm just waiting for a tool update which should eliminate them. 2 Link to comment
