Whee!! I made my first arrest and all the clues fit!! :)
Ok, there were very few clues because I was less stellar in finding them in the first place but now I have scouted the internet a bit for what to look for next time I have to sweep a crimescene. Very happy that I had made that save in case the clues did not fit.
I always waited until I had all five clues or is it six before I accused anyone and it always worked but the game has bug where they may never show up at all since the gender patch way back.
I watch a lot of mystery and suspense shows, so this career is right up my alley, so to speak. I have my Detective photograph and then collect the evidence. I believe I discovered the 'sweeping' action by accident, in that I clicked on a hallway once and it gave me the option to search for clues. I do that every time now. I also photograph the objects, if there are any, that need to be fingerprinted. I have him check every room plus the outside perimeter, if it's at a house.
I had all kinds of clues stacked up in the notebook. The A.P.B. brought me to a place where no one met the criteria. Then one time I was astonished to find an elderly man dressed as the suspect should be. I arrested him. I never got a chance to interrogate him (my favorite part), but he didn't threaten to sue, either. Sometimes being a detective requires outside the box thinking.
I will be attempting this career again, once the child Sim in question becomes an adult.
