Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Tomkat on July 24, 2006, 08:43:56 am I get too annoyed to play with servo's. It seems they LOVE making desert all the time, its even (dare I say) MORE annoying than sims that make Lobster Thermador every 5 minutes, even when they're not hungry!
Servos need to be more controllable in that regard, so that you can assign them chores to do, like have one that does the garden and outside, and one that looks after kids and makes a variety of meals for everyone - like a good appliance should! What's the general point of view of having servos out there? Anyone who agrees with me (maybe a mod-creator?? :)) Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Zenguin on July 24, 2006, 08:50:33 am I think they should have an adjustment ranging from just a servo, helping around
Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Vampyre on July 24, 2006, 12:09:15 pm I have a love/hate relationship with servos too.
Not for the same reasons. The things you mention are annoying but I can live with that. My problem with servos is their unlimited lifespan. Title: What's with servos & deserts??

Oh..........I have NO problem with that - I just kill 'em off :bang: :muahaha: Title: What's with servos & deserts??

I just have a problem justifying in my mind a piece of hardware of any kind that lasts, and stays functional, "forever". Title: What's with servos & deserts??

Look at it this way, if you have a regular sim in the house along wit the servo, when the regular sim dies, you wont lose all the furnishings in the house so you could still move a family into that house without losing the furniture. Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Vampyre on July 24, 2006, 06:27:25 pm Yep... there are the perks too.
That would fall on the love side. They're pretty useful alright. I tell ya I'm torn. :D Conversely why would you need someone to move in? The servos will inherit the Sim Earth. Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Tomkat on July 25, 2006, 03:44:33 am Im more bothered by dead servos coming back...
Imagine that! A machine that has a ghost! Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Vampyre on July 25, 2006, 04:36:38 pm I wouldn't put it past them.
I think I'll toss a servo to a cowplant and see what happens. If we can have bot vampires I'll almost believe anything now. Talk about useless... what's the point of a bot vampire? They are possible though. Albeit not in my game. Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Lochar on July 26, 2006, 05:26:33 pm I, Servo
Lol Vampyre, it sounds like your neighborhoods are on the verge of a Terminator, Matrix, or I robot takeover. Hehe with that mod of squinqes that lets servos look like normal sims, you could be taken over! That would be a cool new career, Servo destroyer, drafted into a secret society that has knowledge of the servo takeover they pledge to get rid of them. Like a burgular they hit houses , not to steal, but to kill the servo. Armed with modern tech they can override normal house security.. Lol I just want 1 dangit so I can see what all the fuss is about. Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Tomkat on July 27, 2006, 02:48:06 am Lol! Imagine that...
however...that might not be a bad idea...a new npc with the sole purpose of killing servos! When your servo decides to make yet another desert, or outlived your famlily once again, phone the terminator and get rid of that piece of junk! Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: weremensh on July 27, 2006, 11:00:04 pm Funny thing; I told one to make cheesecakes, and it kept stopping to do nonexistant `chores'. Regrettably, it never decided to stop making cheesecakes to make dessert...

How'd I know? Figgers. :-| Title: I have never used a servos, any advice? Post by: jenneanr on September 15, 2006, 11:04:07 am How do you use servos?
Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: djfreek80 on January 27, 2008, 03:40:09 am Go ti SimWardrobe site and you will find servo chore controller. It is out from some time though :)
This controlls what chores do your servo does :) About the cooking and deserts YES IT is fracking annoying. I cant stand it sometimes. or when they always want to dance or play computer games (SSX3) and they wake your sim up ?!?!?!? Title: What's with servos & deserts??

Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: Bev in NY on February 07, 2008, 02:34:54 am Yeah the servos can b annoying just like the sims...but i have a plus with them...if i go play another family and the servo is a friend with someone in that family or walks by. and i greet them it is nice they do go around that house and clean...

* mutters * Title: What's with servos & deserts?? Post by: cassandra_107 on March 10, 2008, 09:52:54 pm At More Awesome than You there is a "No chore" mod for Servos.
It is in: the Armory -> No Servo "Do Chores" (about halfway down the page). They (mine) are still prone to bursts of tiding, but it is not every five min. Sometime they will make a meal if sims on the lot are hungry. |
