I had the stuck table in SV yesterday. I went into edit town and moved it, but doing so somehow zapped my sim back home with rearranged items and no table.
I have a feeling that always happens when you use Edit Town with your Sim on the lot.

Some strange shenanigans at the dump today. This is the first trip there since placing the large junkyard in SV. I think that maybe every possible node was turned on. In addition to 15 rocks, this was one trip's haul. I thought for sure the game would break when the repair person came, possibly standing still for a sim week. But to my surprise, she walked right into the house and began loading the dirty dishes into the dishwasher, sniffed and approved of dinner, sat down in a chair, did some fidgeting moves, had several thoughts, and left in a surprisingly short time. I think I may get the high school boy to marry her when he ages up in a couple of days! Heck, if I could find a guy like her I'd marry him myself!

Behold one afternoon's haul! (If I'd known I could get so much, I'd have put this into the town before starting this legacy.)

Wow!  that was a big haul.  Was this the regular junk yard or a player made one you downloaded?

I learned not to pick up sculptures at the junkyard...and last night I learned not to cancel consignments because all of my sims sculptures became glued to her inventory. I've never gotten that much stuff from a junkyard either.

And I got error 12 on another legacy that killed it. I've tried deleting files, moving files, moving lots, moving objects, and just about everything else I can think of...but still get error 12.

It was the larger junkyard from Twinbrook, unaltered, placed in Sunset Valley. There were also 4 stuck end tables I couldn't pick up. I'm curious about how it will repopulate the next day.

Like I said in an earlier post, if you stand around long enough or find a chair and read for a few minutes, you will see a few items pop up from no where.  Hmm, thought,  wonder after your firefighter puts out a fire, say, like in the kitchen and the table or counters get burned, wonder if those same items go to the junkyard.  Has anyone gone back to a house that they have put a fire out in and the burn items have been replaced?  Also wonder about the house being cleaned up after a fire too, guess will have to find out.

Didn't mean to stray there at the last, just my mind wandering, problem is, it keeps coming back. ;D
