teacher homework

[crinrict]

@ilyahna Maybe there's something blocking at the home ? Bit hard to tell. Did you try moving furniture around a bit ? Do you have any lights above the table ?

@crinrict I had the Sim go to a community lot and they were able to grade the homework there, when they got back home they still could not grade homework. I then moved the Sim to a different lot (a different house) and they were able to grade the homework there. I then took the original house I had them in, saved it to my library and plopped it onto the new house lot. Again, my Sim can no longer grade homework. I then went back to the original lot, demolished that house and built a new one and moved my Sim back over there. Still no luck on grading homework. I then put them back onto the 2nd lot I had them move too and built them a new house there and now they cannot grade homework again.

@imjuliewaters Really curious.

Do you still have the house in the gallery that didn't work ? What lot was it ?

@crinrict

I circled the 2 lots I had/have the Sim living at and also tried out various desks and 2 island counters (one CC and one not). Neither island counter would let the Sim grade homework at it (the non-CC counter is not in the photo).  https://imgur.com/a/8jdM6sI As long as I have an empty desk with nothing on it, the Sim can grade homework there. I also tried going to some additional lots to see if the Sim could do homework there and it seems that only certain tables/chairs would work.

@imjuliewaters If something else is blocking, like the laptop, I can see why it's not working. Does it work on other desk that have laptops on them ?

The island counters seem to generally not work for homework either atm, so that might be the same bug or just not possible.

I'll check out that small desk.

@imjuliewaters Moving this to General discussion as I don't think it's a bug.

As you say, it works as long as you have an empty table or desk space.

Please tag me if anyone can't grade despite having available space.

I made a sim today in the teacher career and she will not do the Grade Homework daily task for her career progress, she complains everytime that their is no room or an obstruction, I tried moving furniture, taking her outside, putting the item in the world, restarting the game. I still get the same problem.

@Polarfairy Someone else had this issue, I think they were using a small desk that gave them issues. I was never able to duplicate this but could you try switching out the desk for something else ?

EDIT: Here's the other thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Feedback/teacher-homework/td-p/8696385

Could you maybe also try a different house ?

@crinrict This was totally my bad, I didn't realize they needed a desk, I thought it would be similar to kids doing their homework.

@Polarfairy I was able to get them to grade at the dinner table iirc.
