Friend of my sim died in between wall and foundation - how?

Hi!

When playing The Sims 2 Legacy today I kept on geting a message that roughly translates to: "You invited me to stay the night but I didn't even get a second of sleep! I'm leaving!" (I play in another language). I thought it was just a bug, but I also kept on hearing flies buzzing and couldn't find the source.

Then suddenly, my adult sims started the action "sigh" and walked down to the basement, where I, between the wall and the foundation, saw that friend, now dead, with the grim reaper taking him! HOW did that happen??? How did the sim get between the wall and the foundation (there's absolutely no doors or openings that goes there)? Anyone ever encountered something similar? 

(The buzz must've been him being dirty or the fact that he peed down there since I guess he was stuck between the wall and the foundation. And the reason I didn't check the basement is because it's locked for visitors and my sims rarely go down there).

  • Yet another random bug that has always happened since the game was released. Sometimes Sims end up in places they should not have been able to go and get stuck there. Sometimes you can make changes to the surrounding ground or house that will prevent it from happening again, such as making sure the ground is level or placing objects that will keep a Sim from walking to the area. To fix a Sim who has ended up like this, turn on testing cheats, shift + click to reset the Sim, then turn testing cheats off.
