Re: [BDK] Sims can't vacuum up puddles
Hey! I’m pretty sure it’s intentional = by design. Puddles are supposed to be mopped, whereas dust should be vacuumed.
A vacuum cleaner is an electronic device, therefore vacuuming water is not safe 🙂

That makes sense🤔, but I'm not sure because it's a similiar problem with the "mess" (from childrens "make a mess" action). Kids can vacuum up the mess and adults can't (you can select the mess and the adult sim will complete the action but the mess will not disappear).
EDIT: Adults can vacuum up the mess sometimes (don't know why, but it's not connected to the colour of the mess or which uprigh vacuum you use)Images with the child that cleaning up the mess:
- @Ulf-Gunnel Can you test the vacuum robot to see if those vacuum puddles (that was in the last patch notes as being fixed)
Pretty sure they also should vacuum puddles and messes @crinrict Hi! This was almost impossible to test because I also have this bug: the robot vacuum gets stuck almost immediately after starting a cleaning routine .
But after trying this a lot of times (repaired the game, tested on a new save file, tested in a house with rooms, tested in a house without rooms, moved the dock station +robot vacuum to different places in the room, tested on a room without platforms) I came to the conclusion:
(This is what the robot vacuum did clean before it got stuck, I tested multiple times =>see the bug report above)
CHEAP ROBOT VACUUM (no upgrades)
*Can clean: Garbage on floor
*Can't clean: Puddle / Mess / Dust / Dust bunnies
EXPENSIVE ROBOT VACUUM (no upgrades)
*Can clean: Puddle / Mess / Garbage on floor
*Can't clean: Dust / Dust bunnies- @Ulf-Gunnel Interesting that dust doesn't work for you at all. Maybe are reporting they are using the robots to take care of that.
I'd say, if the vacuum (even if it's just the expensive one) robot can clean messes, so should the vacuums (maybe also just the more expensive ones ?) @crinrict Yes I agree, but I hope it's a bug that the cheap ones can't clean messes/puddles because that makes no sense. Maybe I need to report that bug too... but it's difficult to know for sure what the robot vacuums can/can't clean when the robot do get stuck almost immediately (the other bug). I can try again when ( /if hehh...😞) they fix the freezing bug
