Re: Unwanted Spawners - Can anyone help
@BillFlowerpot This one, I can fix. First, it should be noted that if a lot has an empty house icon instead of an empty lot icon, it should be bulldozed before you place anything there. If this erases the lot from the map, you can place a couple of walls in build mode, and then the bulldoze tool should leave an empty lot.
But onto your specific question. Without mods, the only other way to remove spawners is with buydebug. Bring up the cheat console (crtl-shift-c) and enter "testingcheatsenabled true" without the quotes. Then bring up the console again and enter "buydebug on." In build mode, you should see a question mark icon just above the user interface; in buy mode, you might need to be in the "sort by category" tab instead of "sort by room." (or whatever they're called; you want the second tab, above family inventory) When you click the ? icon, you should be able to see the spawners. You should be able to delete or sell most of them this way; if you're having trouble with one, try shift-clicking it to object-delete. If this doesn't work either, try using the "moveobjects on" cheat as well.
If you can't find a spawner, try building a basement. Sometimes spawners can get stuck underground.
By the way, be sure to turn off all of those cheats (moveobjects off, buydebug off, testingcheatsenabled false) when you're done. Moveobjects in particular can bork your game if you keep it on during live play.
