being shooed Is there any possibility of a mod that would stop sims from losing their entire action queue anytime they are shooed from the bathroom? I sometimes have a sim headed for the toilet while the last one is still washing his/her hands... the one washing hands may have a long list of actions queued up, all of which disappear when he/she is shooed. The sim waiting to use the toilet still waits until the other leaves, so why can't he wait without causing the other sim to have a complete brain fart and forget what he was going to do next? (Hey wait a minute, that sounds like something I do all the time... now what was I doing?)
I don't think that'd be necessary - all you do is create a new bathroom, or make your sims do something else until the other sim has finished.
Sims wash their hands after using the toilet? How many neatness points does this require? I thought they stopped automatically doing that in TS2.... And if this is a problem, you might not wish to instruct sims to go to the same bathroom as another sim! That doesn't quite work as well as it sounds: Sims always choose the most occupied bathroom to use, then proceed to throw a fit when it is occupied, instead of choosing one of the many unoccupied bathrooms. The only way around this is to build large "public" bathrooms consisting solely of stall toilets and urinals. This suppresses the "shooing" entirely, as each toilet is "private".
They don't do it automatically, but I command them to since I think to not do so is absolutely disgusting, regardless of how sloppy or neat one is. Whenever another bathroom is available, I do send the next sim to the unoccupied bathroom, but not all houses have two bathrooms - especially the trailer trash families like the Brokes.
