Exempt Active Household from Being Reset?

Post by Gonder » October 23rd, 2020, 4:39 am

Is there a way to exempt the active household from being reset by Overwatch? Normally this wouldn't be much of an issue but I've been doing a playthrough with a plumbot character, and plumbots are infamous for becoming glitched when reset. His fun and social bars become empty and cease functioning, and the only way I know how to fix this is to remove his trait chips, which, in turn, causes him to lose his job as a result of losing the Office Drone trait chip. Because of this, I simply tend to reload the save and lose a bit of progress, which can become quite annoying.

Specifically, I decided to make this thread after having problems interacting with the portable electronic piano from LN. As soon as my plumbot is about level up, he is reset and I receive an ErrorTrap script error message. It's now happened twice in a row after once reloading and I recall it once happening earlier in my playthrough. In case there's no way to prevent my household from being reset, I'll post the contents of the script error below in case someone has an idea what might be causing the piano issue in particular.

Exempt Active Household from Being Reset?

Post by Gonder » October 23rd, 2020, 10:49 pm

Just a quick update, I decided to remove ErrorTrap from my game to see if it would help with the piano issue and it seems to have fixed it, which leads me to think this has been entirely ErrorTrap's fault and had nothing to do with Overwatch - I'm not 100% sure though as I thought it was Overwatch's job to reset stuck sims. I'll try playing without ErrorTrap for awhile to see if I run into any problems without it. Regardless, I'm still curious what was causing the piano error and if there's a way to exempt the active household from being reset by Overwatch/ErrorTrap.

Exempt Active Household from Being Reset?

It would be ErrorTrap as he's not actually stuck but encountering an error. That's some type of animation error that looks to be an EA fail. Removing ErrorTrap isn't actually fixing it, it's just silencing that error and any others that were to occur. Afraid there's no way to exempt the active household from reporting errors or resetting when they happen because that would be counter productive. It does sound like work needs to be done to better handle when they are reset however and I'll make a note of that.

Hey Chain_Reaction, thanks for the quick response and helping to clear this up, if I'd known before that it wasn't linked with Overwatch then I would have made this thread in the right section, so my bad on that.

Shame to hear there's no household exempt option for ErrorWatch but I guess I understand where you're coming from about it being counterproductive. If I wasn't doing a plumbot playthrough it wouldn't be such an issue, but their bugginess when being reset is too much of a dealbreaker, unfortunately - not the fault of the mod or its developers of course, just comes down to EA leaving their game unpolished.

I still haven't had any noticeable issues without ErrorTrap so I'll probably just chug on without it, at least while I'm playing in any plumbot saves.
