Re: [OPEN] [V] Vampires not protected from sunlight by umbrellas

@Gooseyness You might wanna post/me too this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-V-NPC-Vampires-stay-out-in-the-sun-too-long/td-p/5851121

@celiar58 If you have Seasons, then you can buy an umbrella rack and then click on it while your vampire is the active sim and tell them to take an umbrella. Then you will get to choose which colour umbrella you want them to have. Your sim should then automatically use the umbrella when going outside. 

Yes, it's still an issue.  It has always been an issue for me since I've had vampires and seasons together, but I have never reported on it thinking that many people must be having this issue and should get fixed at some point.  Vampires SHOULD burn in the sun, so I just took it as the added difficulty of being a vampire, even though holding an umbrella is supposed to prevent this. 

What prompted me to finally look this one up, was I just now had a vampire in university step outside and open his umbrella manually so that when he goes to class he won't die, but even though I queued it up like others have said to avoid the debuff "sticking" he was still burning! I can usually avoid this by manually opening my sims umbrella for them, but this is the very first time it did not work.  I don't know if something in university made it different or what.  

I can confirm this. The cause is for the vampire burn is the game do not recognize the umbrella anymore. (This is a standard bug if the umbrella is not anymore in the Queue but still open)

Screenshot 1 : I direct Vlad to wait outdoor

Screenshot 2 : Go to class goes in the queue

Screenshot 3 : Vlad start walking the game drops the umbrella from the queue (but the umbrella is still open and Vlad use it) The game don’t recognize that Vlad have still the umbrella and here we are Vlad burning to death.
