I'm currently using a brand new save, and was trying to use a woodworking table on a Café lot type. Sometimes it would work, but other times nothing would happen. There are mouse holes on the lot, but that didn't seem to be the issue. I'll try more testing later.
I've tried testing it again, same lot, but now I could always craft things. Now I'm starting to wonder if it has to do with the level of handiness. Because I remember years ago, not being able to repair a clothesline, I had enough skill to do it, but just enough. I would click on repair, and nothing would happen. Now to test this again with a Sim without any handiness... juet tried that, but that still didn't replicate the issue.
I had saved and exited the game before, and it kept off and on not letting me kraft, but now all is well. So I have no clue what was going on. Maybe fully exiting the game got it out of the glitch?
