Re: Sims 3 Vehicles Suddenly Cancel "Goto Community Lot"

@LeissaMyst  I'm glad you found a workaround for the jetpack issue, and yes, they're quite finicky even under the best of circumstances.

For the firewall issue, it sounds like you're playing through Origin, so you'd need to set an exception for Origin.exe, and possibly one for TS3.exe.  I'm kind of surprised your firewall would block the repair though—since you play Sims 4, you'd have needed to download updates and possibly repair long before now.  But maybe the firewall settings changed, or the repair also uses TS3.exe.

    As ironic as it's going to sound - I think the firewall issue is related to some "Easing" of restrictions on my firewall recently. Usually I keep the Checkbox for "Block all Incoming Connections regardless of allowed apps" checked, but I had recently disabled it because of some other activities, when I turned it off the firewall kinda lost it's mind and started blocking things it shouldn't have been.

    Another thing that could've contributed was my Microsoft Family Safety processwas temporarily disabled during a windows update earlier this week, could've been the kitten was into something she shouldn't have been...
