Can't Activate Servo

I just finished creating my servo and when I click on it, the only options are to dismantle it or sell it....What am I missing?

  • Just a thought, can you move it from the station, either in live mode, or in buy mode, and then see if you can activate it?

    I had the same problem in a dorm room. Seem you can't activate it a house for students. Servo must enroll into University like a regular sim.

    This link seems broken for me...Can I place the workstation and servo in the household inventory to be activated after term?


    I haven't tried it, but that should work if the dorm is the only problem.

    I wasn't able to do it. The machine with servo can't be placed in a sims personal inventory, and because building/buy is designed to be deactivated on a residential housing lot for uni, it was showing that there is no house inventory....even with the bb.ebablefreebuild cheat.
    So I dismantled Servo to get what parts I could, had to rebuild all the mechanisms and computer chips, and rebuilt it as soon my sim graduated from Uni...Fortunately only 5 sim days or so later. Now I have a gold servo named Pat!
    Thanks for the help. Now I know!

  • Hey there! I got it. If you go to Foxbury (doesnt matter if you go there or not), then go to Larry's Lagoon, and build the servo there, then the option to active it will pop up!
