Where's the "Show off new gizmo" interaction?
« on: November 17, 2013, 02:57:54 PM »
Hi!

One of my rebel sims (a teen) finally reached lvl 6 rebel influence, and she has a wish to show off the latest gizmo to others. However no matter who I want her to show it off (rebel or not), I can't find that interaction. All I found on the web, that it is a social interaction, I checked under every possibility (friendly, funny, mean, special, etc.), but no luck. I started to wonder whether it's a bug, or I miss something?

I've used the interaction before, and found it in the Special > Rebel section. I've also used it with a teen sim, so I don't know why it isn't coming up for you. Maybe that particular teen Sim has a bug? You could try making another Sim with level 6 rebel influence do the action, just to see if there is something wrong with that particular Sim.

No. Sometimes it looks like a virtual reality game, sometime a firework. It's not an actual item you get; just an interaction.

It's not an actual gizmo that you can use around other Sims.  It's just an interaction like telling a joke or sharing gossip.  The Sim does the interaction and that's the end of it.

There's something strange going on with your posts.  Look at the subject line here and see how it changed the quotation marks into code.  And also look at the square after the word "again" right above here.  I wonder if it's because you're using Tapatalk or if it's something else.  Have you seen this happen before?

Welcome to the forum, Kitkatdouble. :)

Just so you know, we prefer if you use the smileys provided on the forum. Text based smileys are all well and good, but they sometimes don't appear for certain people. Yours is an example; I can see it, Pam can't. :)

I can see the little image thing perfectly fine, Pam. :) It's a text based smiley. The best representation of it is this: ;D

Edit: Also, the code only turns up when quoting either Kitkatdouble's post, or yours.

Thank you, Seabody.  Yes, we do prefer that only the Forum smileys be used.  I'm glad to know what the problem is.
