Sul sul 🙂

 

Please help me out if you have any ideas, I am running out of options.

 

I have a sim in Foxbury institute (Computer science program in building left from the commons). Between the classes I had her sit at the picnic table next to Larry’s lagoon to study for exam on her laptop (Customized portable computer from Strangerville pack). When she was done I tried to drag the laptop in her inventory but it wasn’t working. Option to put it in her inventory is also greyed out saying she doesn’t own this item (she does). 

 

I was previously using it as normal everywhere, in other public and community places, never had any issues with it. 

 

I tried setting it as a head and reseting object multiple times which resulted only in bunch of oversized laptops around the campus. If I click on any of them sim goes to original laptop on picnic table and continues using it, just can’t take it.

 

Two sim weeks later laptops are still around, everyone is using them (even fixing the original one) but the game is not removing them and I can’t pick it up. Can’t delete them either because they are on public lot. Also tried swiping them with kleptomaniac sims with lvl 10 mischief skill, no option is appearing.

 

Tried restarting game, using different sims, travelling between lots and worlds, restarting ps4, rebuilding database... Nothing works. Attached some photos so you can see it.

 

Driving me nuts 🤪
