Re: [OPEN] [BDK] Roof terrace is dirty but can't be vacuumed

This "is" a dust problem. I have a flat roof. Placed a ladder on the outside of the house for access. I also have wind turbines and solar panels up there, not the roof kind, but the ground ones that you have to fix from time to time. So access to the roof was necessary. The noodles comes up everytime my Sims are up there. When I check the dust level on the roof, it says "it's filthy." The option to deep vacuum comes up, but the action is never performed. It fails. There is no "I can't do this" animation or something indicating a routing problem. It's just canceled. Vacuuming inside the house works as normal. And no, there are no dishes or anything else on the roof. The solar panels would be the only possibility and they have all been cleaned, and are cleaned when they get dirty.

    Although its not a proper fix i managed to get through this by turning the roof into a room first and vacuuming it before getting rid of the walls. you need to place windows and another roof on top for this to work for some reason otherwise they just keep cleaning without any results and have to make sure the stairs to the roof is from the inside of the house or else they don't even start cleaning.

    This is still an issue, obviously it makes no sense having to vacuum a roof because it's a roof.

    Even the game agrees as it won't let you vacuum the roof, game just cancels the vacuum action.

    So can we get rid of the angry/upset dust moodlets associated with any roof area that game knows is a roof and can't be vacuumed, thanks.
