Sim won't use a specific door?
My sims are constantly getting stuck in the bathroom. They will walk in, and be unable to walk out of the door. The only way to fix it is to delete and repurchase the door. However, it only will work...
Forum Discussion
@Vardeman Hello! Can I please clarify & have you try a few things?
- Please re-trace the bathroom and any adjoining rooms: https://youtu.be/rx__MGVGMnc
- Please delete the bathroom door and items near the door (inside the bathroom and outside of the bathroom). Turn off moo if you have it on, save, and exit your game. Restart your game. When you replace the items and door make sure that moo is off and then place them where they snap to without dragging any items holding the alt key. Doors occasionally become buggy, especially if you lock them to anyone. Don't lock the new door to anyone. Do not enlarge any items near the bathroom. Test and see if your sim can freely use/enter and leave the bathroom now.
- Do you have Mods or CC?
- Is this an in-game home/lot (one that you did not download or edit that was in the game when you started)? If so, can you tell me which 'world', which lot/home, and which bathroom is causing the issue? Thank you!
Please let us know if this helps. If it does not I would like you to create a bug report. I am also going to recommend this post be merged with another previous post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/Sim-won-t-use-a-specific-door/m-p/8044142#M147018
@SheriGR @puzzlezaddict @Vardeman Okay, I've figured it out.
I reconstructed the whole bathroom, making sure that testingcheats and moo were off. For a while, they could go in and out. However, they quickly got stuck again. I thought that if I added another door (one that connects the bathroom into the bedroom) then they would use that one when they refuse to use the other one. After there was a second door, they began to use the original door normally. I deleted the new door, and they began getting stuck again. So now I have two doors, and they are able to get out of the bathroom without me having to delete and replace the door each time.
@_oh_my_frick_ Wow... That is so odd. I'm still hoping to test a bit on my lot with one of you guys' homes. Would you be willing to create a bug report for this? At least then the report will be there. I can then have @crinrict or @puzzlezaddict merge the information in this thread to the bug. Then we can still work further on the issue/testing plus see if others are having the issue and gather information for EA to test/address if it is confirmed to be a bug. Once you create the bug report please tag one of us in it so we know to do the merge. Thank you for troubleshooting and helpful information (and the workaround suggestion)!!
- @SheriGR I no longer have that house. Got frustrated and bulldozed it. If it happens again on any other lot, I'll let you know.
I'm having the same issue. My sim enters the bathroom but gets stuck, I either have to teleport them out with the cheat or replace the door.
I'll try the two door thing.
But if a bug report is still wanted I could possibly produce that.
