[BH] Several classes/lectures don't work

I received a last exception. Here is addtional information:

Issue Description

The whiteboard/lecture system in the Businesses & Hobbies expansion pack is completely broken. When attempting to use whiteboards for hobby classes (specifically Fabrication skill lectures), the system fails with a constant AttributeError loop that generates exceptions every few seconds.

Expected Behavior

• Whiteboards should function properly for hobby classes and workshops
• Sims should be able to attend Fabrication skill lectures
• The sim picker system should correctly identify participating Sims
• Educational businesses using whiteboards should operate normally

Actual Behavior

• Whiteboard lecture system fails immediately when activated
• Constant AttributeError exceptions generated every 2-10 seconds
• Fabrication workshops and hobby classes cannot function
• System creates performance issues due to error spam

Error Evidence

The system fails with the following repeating exception:

Technical Analysis

The error occurs in this sequence:

1. Broadcaster System activates whiteboard lecture effects
2. Sim Picker (simPicker_HobbyClass_Whiteboard_LectureFor_Fabrication) tries to select participating Sims
3. Object Test attempts to call SimInfo.is_part to check class participation
4. AttributeError: The SimInfo class does not have an is_part attribute/method
5. System Fails: The entire lecture system crashes

Error Frequency

• Constant: Exception occurs every 2-10 seconds
• Persistent: Continues regardless of player actions
• Spammy: Floods lastException files with repeated errors
• Performance Impact: May cause game lag due to constant exception handling

Affected Content

• Businesses & Hobbies Pack: Whiteboard lecture system
• Fabrication Skill: Workshop functionality
• Hobby Classes: Educational business operations
• Skill Progression: Through classroom instruction

Reproduction Steps

1. Own Businesses & Hobbies expansion pack
2. Have a save file with whiteboard usage or educational businesses
3. Wait for game runtime
4. Observe constant AttributeError exceptions in logs

System Information

• Game Version: 1.118.257.1020
• Expansion Pack: Businesses & Hobbies
• Platform: PC
• Modded: No
• OS: Windows 11
• Error ID: simPicker_HobbyClass_Whiteboard_LectureFor_Fabrication

Workaround

Temporarily avoid using whiteboards and pause any educational business operations, though this does not stop the underlying system from attempting to run.

Severity

High - This is a constantly running system failure that affects core pack functionality and creates performance issues through error spam.

Note: This bug appears to be a code compatibility issue where the Businesses & Hobbies pack expects methods that don't exist in the base game or other packs, specifically the missing is_part attribute on SimInfo objects.
