Re: [FIXED] Routing Fails while trying to leave/enter room (Agave Abode, Goth, al)

@RandomBuzziness I took a look at Daisy Hovel and 702 ZenView.

About Daisy Hovel, will the routing error disappear if you turn around the bathroom door or if you change it to a 1-space door? Have you made any changes to that bathroom? Otherwise I can't see any reason why there would be any routing problems there. :/

In 702 ZenView there are two upstairs bathrooms. Do you have problem with only one of them or both? Does it matter what the sim does in the bathroom before the routing fail? Is it when they get up/out from the bathtub/shower, get up from the toilet or after using the basin? Maybe the towel hanger (there's one in each bathroom) can be the cause of the routing fail? Normally I think they can "tunnel" through those types of objects, but maybe those can be the cause of the problem since it's similar to the curtain causing the routing fail in the Goth mansion's master bathroom.

Could you add a picture of the room with the routing issue in your custom-built Sulani lot? Preferably a picture from above with the walls up.

    Hi @SqueamishNerd  🥳 The best way I can describe the problem in all three of these lots is that the bathroom door is suddenly acting like it is locked. If I go into Build Mode and replace the door, or simply save/exit/reload my game, then the problem clears & it might be many game-days before it happens again. I haven't found any one single activity that seems to trigger it on a predictable basis & it doesn't happen frequently enough for any practical testing. I've only listed the lots where this has happened in my game on multiple occasions.

    For the Daisy Hovel lot I did replace the 2-space door with a 1-space door (about the same time I read about this work-around in Post #15) but I can't recall if this permanently fixed the problem with that lot. It's been several months since I have played that lot (lol I have added many Expansion Packs since last July!).

    For the ZenView lot it is a 3 x 2 bathroom with pretty much the same layout I use for most of the 3 x 2 bathrooms in my game. For a bathroom that small there aren't many options for how to get everything in there. I can't recall having any problems with this layout on any lot other than this one. I can try deleting the robe and reversing the direction of the door.

    Here is a pic of the Sulani lot. It's happened maybe 4 or 5 times over many days of game-play, so fairly infrequently but not a one-time glitch either. I will try reversing the direction of that door to see if it makes any difference.

    @RandomBuzziness So odd, it really sounds like the doors are the sole problem, but then it’s very odd that it only seems to be in the bathrooms. Maybe doors don’t like to be bathroom doors. 😂

    Anyway, maybe you could try removing the hanging towel in the Sulani bathroom, just to make sure it isn’t in the way even though it doesn’t look like it. Only because the Goth mansion had problem with a curtain, so I want to make sure that it’s not a problem with some non-flat wall decorations, or something like that. I’ll take a look in my game too when I have time. 🙂
