Bicycles are so annoying!
« on: May 08, 2020, 07:59:48 PM »
When my sims live in a 32-tile Micro House, I tend to keep it "Locked for household members only" because there's barely enough room for my sims to move around indoors.

Recently, whenever my sim started a club meeting, a club member would arrive on a bike and ride right inside the house.
Of course, they would then be locked inside the house.

Does anyone know a workaround for such irritating bicycle behavior?
I mostly play this forum's dynasty and tournament challenges, so I wish to avoid installing a mod.
(I do, however, have MCCC installed for one non-forum challenge in a separate Sims 4 folder.)

Honestly, I have given up on trying to find solutions for bike issues. All my clubs arrive on bikes and then spend ages sitting on them, putting up the stands, pulling them back out to try to ride to the club area, realize they can't so sit on them, put up the stands again... It's an endless loop of frustration so I now simply ignore it all.

At one point I went and removed any/all bikes from my non-played club members to find that only a few had them as most of the non played Sims bikes are not actualized by the game but rather spawned in as you play your own Sim. *gives up*  :(

After reading your response, I realized that my sim might have started a club gathering while she herself was inside her house.
I'll have to check if always standing outside will prevent club members from riding inside the house.

It's odd that we have the Always Use Broom and Always Use Wand togglers, but not a Never Ride Bike toggle. 
But you're right, I will try to ignore illogical bicycling behavior in the future.

I've seen my clubs doing the same thing, they arrive on bicycle and then get stuck messing around with their bikes outside.
Also, if you visit Selvadorada, make sure you don't have a bike in your inventory.  My sim kept getting stuck when I sent her through the arches in the jungle, trying and failing to ride her bike through.

I had a guy ride a bicycle into the gym in San Myshuno. LOL I wish I would have gotten a pic of it. I mean, he rode right onto the treadmill.

Wow, I'm sorry but I couldn't help laughing at the image you painted of your sim trying to bicycle through the arches....

Lol... it was pretty much what you see when your club members show up on their bicycles.  Get on, get off, put it away, get it out again, get on...  She's a maxed spellcaster too, she can just transportalate everywhere.  I ended up using a debug cheat to destroy the bike so she would knock it off and just go through the stupid arch.

Oh my gosh, that is actually pretty hilariously awful @Brian_Z . Thankfully, by chance, I've never had a bike in the jungle!
