What does "ring up these customers" on a cash register accomplish? I don't understand the language. Do we ring a bell to call them (they are already in a q) or ring a bell to drive them away? It seems that you briefly enter the cashier's interaction and are kicked out for not being on the jobs controller. |
It appears when there's customers actively waiting at the cash register.

I wondered the same thing a while ago and this reply really helped me: |
Object Workshop is really the easiest to me. You can just extract the texture from the item you cloned and delete the clone.
Yes, they can bring flu home from work! I'm not sure what triggers that. It only seems to happen to me if I already have a plague going, but it's hard for me to believe that, as conscientious as you are, you ever allow a plague to happen. |
I read somewhere that there's always a 1% chance to bring flu home from work or school.

This is immensely helpful. I was wondering where each individual type of file was, so thank you for pointing me to this! :D

I think I undersand it. It means "be cashier as long as there are people in the queue" (don't wait for more). The job role doesn't change to cashier. I've never used it a single time, except as an indicator that customers are approaching. Ring up phrasal verb.

I agree, the Object Workshop is very convenient for when you know which texture you want.
But what I wanted to do at the time was to scroll through all the EAxis textures in order to get some inspiration for recolouring. And for that just clicking through the LIFO files one by one was faster than making a clone for every single object. Especially because it also gave me easy access to Maxis Lost & Found textures like this one:

My stories: Anna's diary - Memories are forever - Little Fire Burning
In the text it says: "RewardObjectGUID - guid of the object that will be offered as a reward for completing the episode"
Was there a planned reward object for you completing the tutorial?

So, I'm having a bit of an issue in one of my university dorms For some reason the cook refuses to do her job properly, instead of making multiple single meals she'll make one group meal, take a portion and sit down to eat, and repeat. Of course she doesn't clean up dirty dishes either. This is one of the few times where I had to hire a maid in a dorm because my sim just couldn't handle the mess by herself. I don't know if the issue is caused by the kitchen layout, but I've used this dorm in the past already and don't recall having this issue. I need a fix asap because this situation is unlivable |
I think it will be the island counters - the cook usually wants to serve to an island,, but only from one side. With that central square of islands, the cook can't reach the right area, so they won't serve properly.

Would everybody in a house going to college (in other words, a teen-only household) cause the household to be considered as selling their house and having the value in their household when moving in? |
Teens start college with whatever scholarship money they've earned, it doesn't matter if they were the last sim to leave their house.

If I have custom stockable foods in my Sim's inventory, the option appears. |
Probably not configured to exclude fridges in businesses. You'd probably lose them if you stocked them. But can always try and not save.

I think the most I've had is about 10 but I'm sure you can have more.

I don't think so. There are 3 digits in the neighbourhood number |
It's four alphanumeric characters- you can rename the neighbourhood files to any combination, for example 1234 or zzzz.

I've been looking for formal outfits with shorts for boys. After all I almost always wore shorts before I was about twelve. Most British boys did in the fifties and early sixties. I couldn't find any suitable all-in-one outfits, so I started looking at separates. I downloaded fakepeeps7's "Playground Hazard" shirts with ties and paired them with shorts from Simphany.com that I already had in my game. I made both available for Formal wear. That worked quite well for the boys. (It's really a child's version of Andrew's preferred "semi-formal" outfit for school and church.) But the Simphany.com shorts are for both sexes, and I didn't have any separate Formal tops for girls. This meant that some girls weren't getting Formal wear at all -- the game gave them the shorts, but didn't any tops to give them. So I've decided to enable at least the plainer version of those shirts for girls for Formal, and I've also made Formal-enabled versions of a couple of Maxis girls' tops. I think these kids look quite good in these outfits -- quite smart enough for a wedding IMAO. My sister used to wear a school tie, much the same as the one I wore, apart from being in her school colours. She also wore a shirt, but she called it a blouse, and it buttoned up the other way.
That girl's hair is something else. It's called skysims246, and I've had it in my game since forever and a day. It's too flamboyant for most of my Sims, but this one seems to like it!

I didn't know that - but I meant in terms of when the game would start reusing numbers, I'd guess the limit for that is 1000, then it would try to create N001 again and cause a mess.
No, I don't care enough to test it

What happens if a sim doesn't pay rent? Better yet, what if he owes rent but moves out?
And another thing... in college what if no one pays rent in a dorm?Seems dumb to pay rent anyway, students should have to pay tuition and other costs! But while going to college they actually make money if they get good grades...if ONLY!
Stand up, speak out. Just not to me..

If I were to take a typical furnished apartment lot, swap the apartment doors for hotel doors, and add a hotel check-in desk, will Sims (playable and NPC) still be able to use everything in the apartments-turned-hotel-rooms? In particular, can they still use a full kitchen if it's part of a hotel room? |
I can't speak to full kitchen because I've never tried a stove and dishwasher, but I do have hotel rooms with fridges, microwaves, and grills, and the playables can use the kitchen to prepare meals in their hotel room.
