Title: Can't delete object (Solved)
Post by: JazzyClassy on December 26, 2015, 01:25:05 pm
Posting a little problem here.

There is something wrong in my Uni hood. I really dont't know what went wrong but when playing a dorm something went wrong whit a dinner plate. The plate lost connetion to it's owner and the cefeteria lady did not take any notice of it. No sims did take notice of it either so I thought "oh well, I delete it". But the sledgehamer is not avalible (?) . And the plate is "In use" so I can not beg a sim to take care of it either. OK, then I tried Move objects but that did not work either.   :mad: OK, so I tried the Stuck objects remover. Not working! How?! And I discovered that I can not delete the plate when I open the lot in Build mode.

So now I have a dinner plate whit some food on it that I can not delete using any avalible methode. There is some green dust comming from it and the flies buzzing around but no one takes notice of this. How can an object be so stuck that I can't delete it? Many sim years have passed now but the object is still there.

With "Moveobjects on" try to put the plate on a table or counter, and delete the table/counter.

If that doesn't work, can sims interact with the plate when it's on the floor?

You can also try to reset the sim that used the plate when it got stuck.

I did try to put the plate on a counter but as the plate is "in use" I ould not delete it. Sims can not interact whit the plate as there is no action avalible for the object.  I don't know who used the plate when it got stuck as I did not see when it happend. And that was a long time ago now. I do think that I had 2 sims living in the dorm since then.

Did you try to delete the counter after placing the plate there, or just the plate? Moveobjects should let you delete the counter.

I think you can also activate "Boolprop testingCheatsEnabled true" and right-click/shift-click (one of them) might let you force an error on the object (choose "delete" when the pop-up shows). You can try doing it on the counter if it doesn't work on the plate. Been ages since I tried that, but could be worth a try.

If nothing works, maybe try moving all the sims out and back in. Not entirely sure if that works for dorms, but it usually does for regular houses.
