Deleting homework

If not and it's child homework, then that's a wonderful piece of homework to teach a kid to study before they even to go school for the first day.

I’m not comfortable with using cheats. So her brother did the homework and problem solved. I’ll be more careful with sims heading off to college and not finishing their homework!

What I have seen:
The homework should disappear by itself when teen becomes either an adult or a young adult.

Ah. That’s why. I sent my teen off to college but haven’t actually opened up University yet. One more family in the rotation to get one off to college and I’ll have enough to start rotating them through. Thanks for the tip!

Yes, that was the problem. Teen becomes a young adult once you move them into a lot. Having them leave for college and not move them in make them stay as teens, letting the game know that it can keep their homework. Otherwise, it is a secret to forever youth...
Anyway, you welcome and have fun!

I actually watched the homework disappear this afternoon. :D
Tank had his two assignments in the middle of the floor (I always don't have them do their homework for the two days before I send them - grades drop if they go to school with two assignments on the lot) and after I had exited the lot to place him in a dorm (you need to enter that lot and save it as well to give credit for going to college and being able to contact them), I went back to finish playing the family for the season and saw it fade shortly after.

You were probably wise to let someone else do the homework - I'm always a little bit wary of deleting anything that isn't buyable in the catalogue, or craftable, especially if it "belongs" to a certain sim. Some items have ownership tokens that may not go away properly if the item is deleted.

LOL woops, I am always deleting stuff like that.....unis leave their assignments everywhere? Just delete them! :D

Proof! It does work! I should stop deleting these things now...I wonder if Bo's No sims loaded mod fries those left over tokens? It is always frying something. :D

I sometimes forget to set move objects back to off. I started to rebuild a room once and I was wondering why doors would end up in the middle of the room and why I could fit the small TV with wheels on top of a dresser.

You don't need to use capitals for the cheats. The reason they capitalized letters was so that you could read the words in the cheat. ;)

Before TS2UC some cheats were case sensitive or they wouldn't work. This might have been changed much later in the EPs or something.

They must have been the less common cheats or maybe some of the more complex building cheats (I didn't really start building until the end of TS2's run, so later EPs may have changed my experience), because I've never capitalized any of my cheats. *shrug*

I can't remember much, either, other than moveobjects used to have to be written moveObjects in the base game. And yep, the 45degree angle cheat was also case sensitive a hundred years ago. :)
