Re: [LPSP] Unable to use Fountain of Mirth on buffet table after back floating

I actually have this issue too but its so minor that every time it cropped up (in different saves over a span of several years) I just let it go and moved on, basically ignoring it. But after experiencing it in my game again today I was scratching my head and decided to look it up to see if anyone else perhaps experienced this issue too. I'm glad I stumbled on this really old post because at first I had no idea what even triggered it.

I'm referring specifically to my sim not being able to utilize the fountain of mirth on the banquet table from Luxury Party Stuff. I would direct her to fill the fountain with juice or chocolate or whatever and she wouldn't be able to do it as if there was a routing issue. I did have her backfloat in her pool earlier that sim-day and the realization dawned on me that that was probably what was causing it this entire time, and it floors me because I don't understand how a pool and ocean interaction could cause your sim to be unable to utilize the banquet table fountain; it doesn't make sense. 

I took advice from the OP though and reloaded my save and sure enough it was fixed. I'm guessing that this is such a niche error that people don't really notice it or care when it happens like how it was for me the first few times. I don't play with the fountain of mirth often either, so that could also be it. This is a very odd bug, and yet another ridiculous bug added to the massive mound of them that this game has that EA has yet to address and sure as heck won't ever be fixing. I swear without mods this game would be an epic failure monetary-wise, because the EA team sure aren't pulling their weight at this point. 

Either way, thanks OP for your results regarding the temporary fixes. Reloading a save or traveling is better than being stuck permanently with your sim unable to utilize a game object you paid for.
