Can't Resize Counters Anymore

I have the same issue, but have had it for quite a while. I can resize island counters, but not regular ones. So try the island counters if that will work for what you are trying to do. Also, make sure you have auto-counters turned off, they won't resize with auto-counters on.

Hey there! Just getting back into Sims 4 and I seem to be having the same issue. bb.moveobjects is on, if that matters. The island counters do not resize for me. I will have them on the ground (before buying) and try to downsize and the green square just moves. When I buy the island counter, only sets the item back down after selecting them. When I have no funds, then the counter scales up and down but I obviously can't buy it. I can downscale some things, and not all things smooth move with alt (like coffee pot and trashcan, but counters do?) Is this just a patch or? Any help is appreciated.

@AltaniH, do you have auto counters on? It's a button over on the left side, just to the right of where it shows how much money your sims have, when you select the counter. You cannot resize auto-counters and need to have that off for resize to work on them.

Okay I have to ask.... what are you guys doing with resized counters?

I'm wondering the same! Are they even functional when resized? I can imagine sims spazzing out and waving their little arms :D

I have seen builders shrink counters and islands to make other objects functional as surfaces such as items from debug.

I have noticed this also. But not with counters.
Heh!

Oh right, no wonder I didn't know. I don't use MOO. Didn't watch the video, but I'm assuming that's what they do.

I use them to freely move other items. For example, some counter appliances still snap with bb.moveobjects on. So you'd put them on an island, shrink the island, then you're free to alt drag both the island and the appliance. This lets you get this closer together to ignore the snap/ object grids. I did this with a coffee pot that I wanted near the back of the counter. Put it on an island, shrunk the island, and moved them both to slip the pot out of the way.

I realized this a little while after I posted. Thank you!
