Default Glitchy stairs but only for dog
Hi there,

Basically I have a set of spiral stairs (Maxis ones I believe) in one of my Sim houses that everyone in the household can go up and down - except the dog. He can go up them but never down. He always sits at the top of the staircase as if to descend, but gets stuck.

I use the moveobjects on to put him downstairs but it gets quite annoying having to do it each time.

Has anyone had this issue before? It just seems weird that all my Sims and the cat can go up and down the stairs but the dog has issues. Any thoughts would be great!

Thank you.

Have you tried to replace the stairs? Also, is it a big or small dog?If it's a big one, maybe something invisible is stuck upstairs, and the dog can't get past it.

If you have any mods affecting stair travel, such as a mod to allow kittens/puppies/toddlers to use stairs, that could be causing the problem.

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

I don't have a mod as far as I'm aware Nysha, but I will check.

It's a big dog so maybe that's the issue? I will try putting different stairs in.

Thanks for your replies

I frequently have a problem with large dogs and spiral stairs. I bypass it with move_objects.
