The Patch The Patch The Patch Is OUT!!!

It can only hold a one-square object, though. Might be fun to put something there, just for giggles.

Hey, a chair would be funny, especially if people decided to sit on it.

Too funny, SBW! a chair was the first thing that came to my mind too. then I thought of the single square dresser hack.

 

I've started using those funky spots to put the garbage can. It prevents everyone and their brother from kicking it over and my sims don't have to lug that hefty bag with one bottle out to the road. If it's close to the kitchen, I don't even bother buying a trash compactor or small trash can. It has the added benefit of being unable to block the limo or school bus. (Of course, if it's in your foyer, it isn't particularly attractive. I pretend it's behind a closet door.)

 

So, you move it using boolprop? I've never been able to move my trash can.

Or do you mean the little ones you can buy in game?

 

The trash can and mail box can be moved by setting the moveobjects cheat to on. It isn't recommended to move these items because if they are accidentally deleted it is difficult to impossible to replace them.

 

What space are you talking about? In all of my houses, I don't have a square space underneath the stairs. Am I missing something? =)

 

It's in the townhouses downtown, and I've seen them in other houses I've downloaded.

Basically, you need a landing for the stairs so they have to be one space (at least) from the wall. Hence, the one-square space. (See earlier picture). Makes a perfect closet or a good place to wall up a sim you don't like (insert evil laugh here).

I like Lola (the trapped sim in the picture) so I put in a door so she could get out.

 

LOL I was also wondering about that. My houses don't have such dead spaces because I put the stairs in as soon as possible and then start redesigning around them until I have something that not only looks nice but also something that is as sim proof as is feasible, bearing in mind that Pescado's hacks tend to have a shelf-life of three months

 

IIRC, turn-ons and turn-offs form only a small part of it. I don't have the game yet, so haven't had the opportunity to dissect it and turn it into an exact science yet.

 

That is quite odd about the stairs. I, too, usually incorporate my stairs while I'm building, so I never have that little closet. Maybe I'll start doing it though, if people like them! lol
