Mermaids and Marine Biology

Okay, so here I am playing without cheats and all. I have a Mermaid who has just made it to Marine Biologist in the Conservationist career. Here are two things I'm wondering if you can help me with..

1. Her hydration bar is all the way green, yet the stinky fish symbol is on the side and the notice always tells me that her hydration is low. What gives? She's in the water nearly all of the time.

2. One task for my career is to survey schools of fish, baby turtles, etc.. It doesn't allow me to survey them or any of the coral reefs when I click on them. What am I doing wrong?

On a different note, I love, love, love this pack.

  • I have the issue with the stinky fish symbol, as well, even though my mermaid's hydration bar is full. It usually goes away on its own, but it can take a while. Once, she slept in the ocean and when she woke up in the morning, her hydration bar was completely empty. Even using the UI Cheats Extension mod to right click on it doesn't get rid of it.
  • When the Stinky Fish symbol gets stuck, I found it to go away if you send your sim off to another lot and causing the loading screen. I had this happen to one of my mermaids (just once), she too was a mermaid and marine biologist. She is no longer in that career, I had another sim take over the job when she started her family.
  • They need input on AHQ for the Dried Scales moodlet here. I got rid of mine by going into CAS, then just exit right away.

    There's also a known issue with mermaids and surveying marine life. Apparently that's done by snorkeling, and mermaids can't snorkle.

    To observe sealife, click on a green buoy to do that.
