You know the all in one bathroom?

OK, smart guys. If the water is going from the toilet to the showerhead, why is the spray at the toilet level wider than the opening in the seat?

It's an optical illusion brought about by a force similar to that which creates whirlpools -- water being spread out then forced into a restrictive tunnel.

And why is the seat covered with drops of water?

Were you there prior to see if the seat was wet or dry before this started happening?

Some of this also has to do with the relative intelligence level of the water. I am not a huge Dr. Who fan, but a friend of mine used to (more or less) make me binge watch with him many years ago and I remember this being an issue over a couple of episodes. Don't ask me which season, I wouldn't be able to tell, but I might be able to point out which Doctor it was. :)

@king_of_simcity7 - Okay, I'm just imagining what a Sim might see when they step into their all-in-one. Since I can't remember right now if the all-in-ones take up 1 or 2 floor tiles. I'll start with a two-tile guess.

I think the shower would be located on the ceiling - not the wall. It would not be above the toilet but, rather in front of it. There would also have to be a drain of some sort nearby to let the water out. The drain would probably be located on the floor in front of the toilet. One thing we know for certain is there's no sink in there because Sims can't use it to wash their hands.

If it a single tile, it could work like a miniaturized enclosed version of the 'Not So Routine Machine' where everything rises from the floor. Or, they have developed SimNation's first retractable/embedded toilet :D! Hey, anything is possible with advanced Sim technology! ;)

@mw1525 You are correct on the number of tiles. But you're wrong about there not being a sink. Don't ask me where it is, because logically, there is no room. But if you send your sim in there and listen, after a few moments, you'll hear the toilet flush. Then you'll hear the sim washing their hands in the sink. Finally, you hear the shower. Then the sim comes out. Maybe the sink is above the toilet tank.

@IreneSwift - Really?! I didn't know there were sound effects associated with this item. I just directed them to it when they needed to use it and quickly moved on to something else. Since there are no visuals/animations involved with it, there was no need for me to stick around.

In that case, maybe the sink portion of the All-in-One operates like the hand sanitizing feature of the 'Uber Sani-Sim Toilet', only instead of a mist it may channel clean tank water for the purpose of hand washing. Yep, that's the best my imagination/to reality can come up with :) .

@igazor There was the 1965 Dr Who film with the policeman going into the tardis and fainting. I guess that the TS3 all in one bathroom works in a similar way:

That was my expectation, that it would be atop the toilet tank, like your typical oversight.

In fact I wish I could have one of those for my game, because I like tiny living and it's not possible without being able to combine and condense in those practical ways that are already easy and normal irl.

I think I just lost my appetite.
