Re: [ARCHIVED] [DU] [CD] Pets/TV/Basketball/ .. distracting from work stations
My teenage sim has the same issue. Not a degree student obviously as you need to be an adult for that

This describes perfectly what happened with my Sim. I added a "me too" to your thread.

Never used CC or mods.- @Zasz_Zerg Merged this with existing thread on robots station distracts.
- I was coming here looking for this! For me, it's the basketball hoop - constantly. My YA female (only sim I've tried it with so far) is in the Distinguished Communications track. She's a soccer player atm. Since she and her family are an Ultimate Sim Legacy, I'm going to be using this thing a lot to level up Robotics, if I don't cave and just buy the books! I own everything but Tiny Living so far. Oh yeah, and she's currently a vampire lol.
As a workaround I've found that if you have GT you can create a club (different from the DU social club) for Robotics. You Sims will work at the workstation while the club is active.
You might want to a skilled spellcaster around or some death flowers handy because 2 unplayed club members died of electrocution while I was trying this.
Adding: Not sure this is a good idea after all. The body count has gotten a bit high. Unplayed club members seem to continue to use the workstation even after they've be shocked.
I was noticing the same thing with one of my sims! He didn't go to college, but he is in the Computer Science career. He kept leaving the workstation to go play basketball. His progress did seem to stay though, the option on the workstation said to "Resume..." instead of "Build..." so that's something, I guess.
I did delete the basketball hoop, just to see what would happen, and he seemed to stay put. We'll see if that continues.
And then I look away for a few seconds and he gets himself electrocuted. *shrugs* LOL
For pets give them something to do like the catnip and all that stuff.
I keep the liter box dirty when I want to work on the robot workstation and the cat just sits there and meows at it.
