Please use this thread going forward: Objects combust into fire | EA Forums - 11927878
Hi again!
I'm still having this problem a lot. In my current save, I had I think 7 fires in one sim afternoon.
I tried removing ceiling lights and using table lamps which were placed on the mantlepiece of the fireplace. There is no furniture within 3 tiles of the fireplace (except for an occupied bassinet two tiles away, which should be invulnerable).
My fire count was as follows:
1. The floor caught fire.
2. The floor caught fire.
3. The cat threw up on the floor while I was feeding the baby, and in the space of time it took to cancel the feeding action, the cat vomit caught fire.
4. The lamp on the mantelpiece caught fire.
5. The floor caught fire and spread to the couch 2 tiles away.
6. I think possibly the *cat* caught fire? Not sure. The fire started on the tile the cat was on, which wasn't directly in front of the fireplace, and it spread to the tile the bassinet, which didn't burn, but the floor under it did.
7. The floor caught fire.
I can send the save file through, if you like. Shouldn't be hard for the devs to replicate the issue, given that track record.
NB: I'm going to copy this over to the main fireplace thread, but I posted it here too because of the event where the lamp on the mantel caught fire.
