How to make a bunk bed
@0226044681383 @Vjbutler1313
Apparently considering all of the tutorials on bunk beds and the number of them in the gallery, it used to be an item that, if made and 'tweaked' to just the right heights and layouts could be used by a sim. Unfortunately this has apparently broken/changed at some point. Below is a summary of some of the information in this thread...
Unfortunately the bottom line answers that we found were:
- The highest you can move a bed up now with MOO+9m and still have your sim be able to enter/use the bed is two clicks up. This is obviously not high enough to add a bed under it.
- In the case of the bunk beds I created to test and the ones I downloaded from the gallery all of the top bunks were not usable, though if it is laid out right occasionally the bottom bunk is usable.
- You may be able to build a bunk bed with MOO on that has a bottom bed that is functional IF it is placed perpendicular (at a right angle) or adjusted to the to the one above it in a way that you tweak positioning for until your sim can get into it... so in other words, the top 'bunk' is in this case is only a decoration and not functional.
- If you would like to see some examples of YouTube videos of bunks being built and tested with a sim that show that they used to be able to enter the bunks in some cases please check these video tutorials:

So, basically if you download a bunk from the gallery or make your own, it will likely not be usable for anything but a decoration. I hope that EA adjusts whatever code/function that used to allow for functional bunkbeds so that the sim can enter them once again, as I think it if a useful item to add to a room, and a fun one figure out a way to build in a way they can use - a nice creative build challenge.
