Re: Can't summon a bound sim with voodoo, always says they are working

@Fanphoria What job does the Sim have when you ask them ? Have you tested multiple Sims ?

    @crinrict As I said, the sim is Lewis from the in their shadow scenario, so last I heard he had joined the astronaut career I think? But since he doesn't seem to exist in world as a normal sim, and won't come over when invited cause he and my sim don't get along, and can't be summoned, I actually have no way to get in touch with him to ask him anything lol. I even tried making a club and adding him and starting a gathering and he still didn't show up, so Idk. (I used the club requirements to try and check what his job is, but according to that he doesn't have a job at all so *shrug*)

    The only reason it matters at all is because my sim keeps getting wants (which, with the new system, I can't skip and get penalized for not fulfilling) to officially become enemies with him, or do mean interactions, ect, which I have no way to accomplish because he apparently doesn't exist outside of my sim's memory of him. I can't make him show up anywhere, so I was hoping to use the voodoo doll to summon him, but then he's always at this job he apparently doesn't even have.

    @Fanphoria They are in a different household though, right ? NPCs sometimes take bartender jobs and the like which makes them work 24/7 but I guess if you can't get him to show up at all, you can't ask.

    I'm not familiar with the scenario (I don't play them).

    Could you please try another Sim to see if it's only this Sim in this specific scenario ?

    @crinrict So, took me a while, but I think this had to do with the glitch where the scenario wasn't ending correctly. I finally was able to come up with some sort of solution by 1: cheating to end the scenario (tho this resulted in have ing the wrong ending than the one I should've gotten), summoning him with the voodoo doll (whic worked...but he would then disappear immediately after so I had to quickly pause in order to nab him. Took a few tries), 3: cheating to add him to the household. After that, I could then move him out and he now existed as a regular NPC in the world. But I guess because the scenario got stuck at the end, it ended up glitching him too *shrug*
