Repeating ErrorTrap Script Error with Andrei Varadi

Post by Isladiso_Mermaid_Man » August 8th, 2014, 10:24 pm

The issue occured a while after I started a fresh new game on Isla Paradiso (with all houseboats bulldozed and the families that once lived in them evicted to houses on the islands.) I get a ErrorTrap script error associated with Andrei Varadi once every 10 seconds or so. Even though the error doesn't seem to cause any lag, the constant, repeating notification was driving me nuts. I didn't want to do a total annihilation on the townie because I thought that might be too drastic, especially as a first resort. So, I decided to simply evict him to a custom built house, in case the issue might have to do with where he lived by default. That worked...for a little while. I soon got the error message again, and that's when I decided to do some research on the error to no avail. Any advice you can offer me will be appreciated. The error log has been uploaded as per the How to Upload instructions.

Thank you for reading and good fortune to you in your current and future endeavors.

Hmm. Resetting the town with MC should stop that although the cause is suspect. Are the map tags for your active household working normal?

That depends on what you mean. While I am home I only get the Nraas button when I click on my home map tag. While away from home I get the Go Home button, which does work. Is that normal?

Oh! Yes. Everything seems to be functioning normally. I have yet to experience an issue with the map tags. Anyway, I will reset the town. If the problem persists, what should I do?

Interesting. You could remove Andrei from the ghost hunter career as that's what is triggering the error. :)

Sure. If you can find him, click on him and NRaas / Master Controller / Intermediate / Career / Quit

If you can't find him, click any computer or city hall and NRaas / MasterController / Sim / Intermediate / Career / Quit / First Name / Andrei / Select him and click the check at the prompt.

You may also want to disallow Sims from rejoining the ghost hunting career if it's giving you problems

Click any computer or city hall, NRaas / StoryProgression / Town Options / Disallow Career / Select Ghost Hunter and click the check.
