Re: Cannot harvest alien plants on sixam (sims 4)
@PugLove888 @lilyinsimland @jpkarlsen Did you try watering the plants/tending the in the lab each time any of your sims are at work in the lab, even if it's not an assigned task? I haven't played my scientist sim for a while, but if you're currently playing one, maybe you could try re-planting the dead one(s) then tending them each time at work? Also, do your sims take cuttings from them? They do die after a certain amount of cuttings. Maybe someday at work you could build an 'earth greenhouse' for them with sprinklers. I have tested and can enter 'build mode' at work. I made a recording of adding the 12x9 'Greenhouse Earth Room' from my gallery. I made a screencast of how to add it. BUT... I did find that it does not allow me to drag the plants from the lab to it. I have a room that has plenty of plants in my gallery, and you can grab them from that - also in screencast. In my home where I use this greenhouse (the earth floor type can allow the addition of sprinklers - if you remove a wall panel while adding the sprinkler, also in screencast) I upgrade the sprinklers so they don't puddle and are unbreakable. Unfortunately I could not do this with the sim in this video since she does not need the handiness level of 5 or up to do the upgrade. You can order the parts on the computer at work, though, and you need 'common' and 'plumbing' upgrades parts to upgrade the sprinklers. Your sim won't need to worry about watering then. I don't think weeds will kill the plants, so you just need to worry about taking too many cuttings or bugs as killing dangers for the plants then. (Sorry the video is a bit clunky... I was in a hurry and not well oriented on the lot. Also, I had to remove the inner wall in the video, as the old version has stairs/foundation. There is no foundation at the lab, though. The 12x9 'Greenhouse Earth Room' room in my gallery has a version with no foundation and no inner wall, though.) Oh, just delete the whole room with the plants (move walls until none are left) in the basement when done.
