move object not working
« on: September 18, 2012, 08:59:58 AM »
I have been working on my community park, tried the move object and it lets me pick up an object, such as a rock and place it next or or even blend together, but it won't let me let go of the object.
I move the object away, and no problem but I can't let go of the object.  use excape and it move the object back to it orginal spot.   

Am I missing a step?

Did you turn the cheats on with testingcheatsenabled on before doing the moveobjects on cheat code?
A clear conscience is usually a sign of a bad memory.

No, I didn't.  In searching here I didn't see that noted as having to be done, just putting in the moveobject_off.  There are lots and lots of threads talking about using the moveobjests, finally found one that said something about space then off. 

Since it worked without the testingcheatsenabled, I didn't think it was needed. I had tried testingcheatsenabled_moveobjects, testingcheatsenabled_true_moveObjects and a couple of other combinations, but didn't realize I had to add the _off. 
 
Guess I should have tried that before asking.  So, I need to do the "testingcheatsenabled_on_moveobjects_off " for it to work. 
I desperately need a new brain that is resistant to negative side effects.

I put in "testingcheatsenabled true" hit enter and then put in "moveobjects on" as separate commands.   "Moveobjects off" afterward will turn the feature off.

I will try that, I had thought that off was odd, then figured it meant to turn something off so you could use that option.
