Something wrong with Register or not?

I tried to change newspaper deliverer age and went to register settings.
I click Valid Ages, it does nothing.
Is this suppose to happen?

I guess Register just doesn't allow you to make a choice since there is no suitable outfit for a different age category. The Newspaper deliverer is always a child. You don't want to see a deformed monster on your front porch, do you?

Well, I wanted teenagers also do newspaper deliverer.
Is there way for them to have newspaper delivery job?

There is no Newspaper Delivery outfit for teenagers or Age Flags for the Service.
You would have to rewrite the Newspaper Delivery service code to add the appropriate Age Flags and an outfit.
Just warning though messing with the Service Pool in such a way can blow things up.

I have an idea, but I can't give any guarantees that it will work well. Create a teen, click on him, use MasterController (plus you will need the Cheats module), select from the list of advanced options and try to set service - newspaper deliverer. Pre-do not forget to remove the child, who was previously engaged in the delivery of newspapers to the game was a place for a new sim.

Oh, ok.
Thanks for reply.
I will try that.

P.S.:
I checked the option in the Newspaper Delivery Service Sim.
It showed I could change the number of pools (Number of Sim that can be Newspaper Deliverer)

P.S2:
Even I got solution I can try, I will still consider more suggestions or ideas about this.

There actually is no solution to be had here without reprogramming the game as said and it's not the fault of Register. Teens and older cannot be newspaper deliverers. They can pick up the part time job in the Journalism career and work 5-7am every morning in a rabbithole coordinating newspaper delivery (offscreen) though (Edit: Careers mod PartTime add-on module required). Or you can craft a child using height and other kinds of sliders to look a bit older, but they will still be a child.

There are many game core blocks on Service Sim age groups like that. Teens cannot be mixologists (neither the Service nor the Role Sim kind), maids, or butlers, YAs and older cannot be babysitters, etc.

Well I just tried suggestion from Sara and the teenager became newspaper deliverer using Nraas Mods.
Is this bug then?

This can be done with the help of some mod?

I find that surprising. Are they actually showing up every sim day to deliver the newspapers without errors?

Could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure that part time job is base game (or possibly from Generations), not a modded one. One of my teen's best friends has that job and every time he stays the night, he has to get up and leave for work at 4am, which can be very annoying.

(Edit: Corrected my post above, it's a custom part time job from the Careers mod PartTime add-on module.)
