Title: Doors stuck as "In Use" Post by: Lythanda on July 03, 2007, 09:58:40 am I have quite a few lots that have doors 'stuck' as being in use and I can't delete because it shows as 'in use' even though I've sent Sims through it over and over again in order to unstick it.
I'd like to modify/expand the house(s) and I need to delete or move the doors involved. What's the cheat to unstick them so that I can move or delete them? (I'm kinda new to Sims2 even though I have both Sims 1 & 2, I never got Sims1 to work for me.) :blob6: Title: Doors stuck as "In Use" Post by: oph3lia on July 03, 2007, 10:36:45 am I've had that happen before... open the cheat box, and type in moveobjects on press enter then exit the box and you should be able to delete them then :)

Title: Doors stuck as "In Use" Post by: caffeinated.joy on July 03, 2007, 03:03:51 pm It could be you have a light or other object placed too close to the door. I find I need to have two tiles between lights or objects placed on the floor and the doors or they won't shut.

About 99% of the time indeed, the reason for a door stuck in use is because of a light that is in the way, just move the light elsewhere and when you go back to play you should hear the door close.

It will prevent the occurrence and also properly shut the doors which are presently stuck in the open position (can't recall whether they will just shut on their own or if a Sim has to go through them to trigger the shutting -- either way, though, it has solved the problem in my game and prevented it from recurring).
