- crinrict5 years agoHero+@stjmk Makes me wonder if it has to do with this issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Routing-Fails-while-trying-to-leave-enter-room-Agave-Abode/m-p/8008615#M96604

@crinrictSorry, I got rid of the problem houses because people were downloading them despite my warnings, and I thought you had them. Oops.
It should be easy to duplicate with The Summer Home. Just take out the two extra sloping roof segments on the side and make it one big sloping roof segment all the way across.
And with Coorinberg Cottage, if you try moving the entry into the bedroom with the red double bed one space back, Sims won't be able to walk on the space in front of the door to bedroom.
Edited to add: Just remembered, in Coorinberg Cottage, the space in the upstairs hall right in front of the diagonal wall of whale bathroom is still inaccessible to Sims even in the fixed house. It's only a tiny triangle of space and it doesn't really matter for gameplay, but if you click it, no footprints and "go here" option appear.

I am also having this issue but with appliances. Tried not using moveobjects, rebuilding the room, removing all clutter etc. Did you eventually find any fix? If so, please let me know!
- 5 years ago@cierrafromme Can Sims get to floor in front of appliances? The problem I was having was on an upper floor and there was a "dead zone" such that when you clicked on it no "go here" option or footprints appeared.
If your sims can get to the spot right in front of appliances, or if you remove appliances, the spot where appliances are sitting, probably something else going on. - 5 years ago
Yeahhhhhhh my sims could walk in front of it but not use the items

@stjmk That was the post @cierrafromme made: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Unable-to-use-appliances-on-counters-against-the-wall/m-p/9756814
They uploaded their house.
Was just now thinking it might be the same as yours. As I suck at building and pretty busy elsewhere, would you mind checking their house to see if it's similar to what you're seeing ?
It's def some weird area that can't be accessEDIT: MErged the threads

@cierrafrommeI downloaded and checked out the build, and you most definitely do have "dead zones' in the kitchen all along the exterior wall and the wall adjoining the bathroom. I'm not sure why but there also seemed to be a "phantom room" with half walls cutting the kitchen in two. (Also noticed one in the bathroom which I left alone since it didn't seem to be affecting my sim's "go here" option.)
I managed to "fix" the kitchen, by hokey poking the phantom room and the exterior wall, adjusting half wall room until it lined up with exterior wall, moving wall in one, redrawing exterior half wall with full wall, moving wall out one, with seemed to fix the "dead zone" in kitchen in front of exterior wall. (One or more of these steps may be completely unnecessary, but I was just trying things until it worked.)
"Fixed" kitchen "dead zone" along bathroom wall by moving wall over one into kitchen. Then there were some grid tiles in middle of kitchen that were still dead zoning, and wound up drawing little room boxes in kitchen then deleting/"selling" them until my sim was able to walk on all parts of grid in kitchen (I moved/deleted all counters first because if sims can't walk on space they won't be able to fully use appliances or counters set on space.).
The kitchen is narrower, and there are still two "dead zone" grid tiles in bathroom right in the middle of the wall with the vanity mirror where I moved wall into kitchen. Only thing I could think of was to wall them in and make that area a "closet" maybe, and then place vanity area against "closet" wall in bathroom. - 5 years ago
Can you possibly upload the fixed house for me? or simplify what you did I'm a bit confused. Did you just move the walls?

@cierrafrommeWell, I don't have Snowy Escape, so all your stuff got changed. So, the "fixed" house is probably not as nice now.
To simplify: Try doing the following:
1. Clear downstairs kitchen space of all counters, chairs, etc.
2. Move exterior wall in ground floor kitchen in one. Redraw exterior wall, then move it back out. See if Sims can walk on those outside spaces next to window.
3. Move the wall of the bathroom adjoining kitchen in one to kitchen. See if Sims can walk on spaces next to that wall.
4. Click around in kitchen, and, wherever Sims can't walk, draw a little room box, click on it, choose Move and Sell it. Then, see if Sims can walk on that space. Repeat until all areas in kitchen can be walked on.
As I said, the only thing I didn't manage to "fix" were two of the spots in the bathroom where the kitchen floor had been. Although the little room box Move/Sell maneuver might work on them too. - 5 years ago
Oh wow, you're a life saver! Thank you so much, it works! ♡♡♡
- 5 years ago@cierrafromme You're very welcome. So glad it's working for you!
