[AA] Formative moment: Child cannot complete 'Be an Inspiring Author'

The “Be an Inspiring Author” formative childhood moment cannot be completed because the “Write Dollhouse Story” interaction never becomes available for Child Sims.

Even after fulfilling all visible requirements (high creativity skill, dollhouse play, and access to a computer), there is no option to write a dollhouse story. Children cannot use the “Write” interaction on computers, so the milestone remains stuck and incomplete.

Edit By crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title

  • I wonder if it's because the child isn't at home when you click the computer (she's off the lot at school in your screenshot)?

    Could you test having her play with the dollhouse after school (so she gets the "Doll House Inspiration" moodlet) and once she's inspired check if the Write Genre Book option is still missing?
