Question about the Tomb of the First Emperor
Yesterday I was exploring this tomb (the one under the terra cotta army) and I sort of got stuck and didn't know what to do next and well, to cut a long story short (ahem, it was late and I was weak),...

I just played that tomb yesterday, lol. Didn't get to that room; haven't seen it before. It might be something leftover which was never incorporated into the tomb puzzles. I've seen other remnants in other tombs. I'll have to check that out if I can find a save of my sim in China.
edit: I found an old save and loaded it up to take a look at that tomb. All the step-on pressure plates in that room link to other plates on the floor above which are part of an elaborate puzzle (with a simple solution). I don't know anything about constructing tomb puzzles, but maybe linking everything the way they did was how they got that puzzle to work the way it does? Or maybe it's there as a way to test/troubleshoot things? Dunno, really, but it's not a place your sim can get to normally and is not a part of solving the tomb.
