Sims can't throw away trash or take clothes to washing machine with ladders

Hello!

I loved the new update, mainly because of ladders and the new inventory, but there's ont thing annoying me: My Sims can't take trash or clothes from the upper floor if I use ladders. I need them to put the trash or clothes in the inventory, climb down the ladders and then do the proper actions.
Was it meant to be like this?

Sims probably have to use two hands when climbing - but they should be able to make it so sims put the stuff in their inventories automatically. The sims do it all the time when they do other stuff. Maybe they just didn't have time - we could ask the gurus to see if they can update it.

I ran into the same issue. And while it doesn't work with the current animations used for these actions, I agree that they should make it so Sims will temporarily put this stuff in their inventory while going up or down ladders. I mean, the inventory is bottomless, so a bit of additonal trash or laundry isn't going to break their backs you know.

I asked Nick for some help, now I'm waiting his answer :smiley:

Yes, they can do it, as Sims usually do it when you interact with other Sims while eating or drinking.

I haven't loaded the game yet, does it work if you manually put the items in the inventory?

Yes, but I also need to climb down the ladders manually.

So if you don't put laundry or trash in the inventory, you can click on somewhere below and the sims will automatically use the ladder?

Ah, okay, then they should be able to update it, we just need to make the gurus aware of it. @SimGuruNick

My Sims can't take things to the garbage and the plates are all lying out there available on the floor.

Well, it does make sense. It would be pretty cumbersome having to carry laundry/garbage down a ladder, haha.
