[feedback] broken earbuds.

today i clicked on a Sim and noticed a "place in world" option. (at first i didn't realise it had replaced "earbuds..." so i thought, "does it mean i can place the Sim? she's already in the world!") so i clicked on it, and the Sim put her broken earbuds (i never noticed that they were, as she hadn't been using them) on the floor. clicking on them gave me the option to "repair", so i directed her to do that because her handiness level is 8. after 5 Sim hours she still wasn't done, so i gave up and (because she could not put them back in her inventory) sold them from build mode. also, i quit without saving to try and sell them from her inventory, but the "drag and drop here to sell" option doesn't work.

this might sound like a minor issue to give feedback on. but still, my suggestion would be to keep the "earbuds..." option on the Sim, and add "repair" to the ones that pop up after clicking on it. and when clicking on them from the inventory, "repair" could be the one option available (as we'd be clicking on the earbuds proper), as it is for other broken objects. the Sim would then place them the floor and fix them, hopefully not taking ages to do it.

or i could simply buy new ones and forget about it. 😛

thanks.

    1. Place it within the boundary of your owned lot, go into build mode, select and sell it.

    2. Or just place it on the ground, shift+click, select destroy object.

    i did mention that i sold them from build mode. what do you think about the rest, is it a dumb suggestion?
