@siladris Good question.
I believe the only one is the one generating inside the house because the first time it happened, I moved it ouside, bought another one and placed it then deleted that one.
This time, I just moved it outside. I never checked for another one but if I had deleted it and it had been the only one it would've come back.
But I know that the lots require mailboxes so I never delete one without making sure there is one on that lot.
@SimzSizzle Does it happen to every house you download or a particular one ? Could you post name/creator if it's a specific house ?
@crinrictHi what I believe happened is after I put a house I built in my library, then placed it after finished building, the mailbox was in the house.
On another separate incident, I didn't build the house, but I was moving a Sim so I put the house he was living in in my library and then placed it, the mailbox was in the house.
It has something to do with saving to the my library.
I mistakenly thought it was because I got a home from the gallery because one of the homes I placed I didn't build, and it happened then too, but the one thing in common beside the gallery is I saved them to my library.On one occasion it was a home I had downloaded a long time ago from the gallery, I didn't build it but my Sim had been living in it for a long time.
I did this 3 times so bear with me, and in 2 incidences the mailbox was in the house.
In the other two occasions, I had built the house myself and didn't share them to the gallery.
One of them was the one I produced a picture of and the other was a house I built for another Sim. I can get a picture of that one if you need it.
Both of them were saved to my library. The house I didn't build myself was also saved to my library because my Sim had been living there for a while.
I had done a few renovations to it and it was a home in Windenburg. I saved it to my library and then placed it and moved my Sim. I noticed the mailbox was inside, but I just moved it thinking it was a one time thing. Then it happened 2 more times.
I recreated the problem. Build a nothing small house, saved it to my library, and then, created a Sim and saved him to my library.
Then I placed both Sim and small house and as you can see from the pictures, the mailbox generated in the house. It never was outside the house.
This is a small nothing house I built.
I misspoke and said the house came from the gallery and that the problem could be recreated by placing a house from the gallery, but I was a little short on remembering the steps I had taken over a period of time, because it happened over a period of time, at 3 different times, not just in one session.
Picture one will show the small house and the mailbox is missing from outside.
Picture two will show the small house with the mailbox inside.
I had placed the Sim already.
- @SimzSizzle So this basically happens if the house has no mailbox on it's own ?
What do you mean by a nothing small house ?
Does it happen on every lot ?
