Simbot Opportunity bugged?
« on: June 09, 2011, 02:24:25 PM »
I have done all the necessary steps to get the life core for the Simbot. It tells me to take it to the Inventors bench, and I swear when I first did this opportunity you had to Invent to learn the Simbot, but on my bench its greyed out and says my sim has nothing left to invent. Has anyone else had this problem and no of a solution? Thanks

If you have the life core, you should have the option to "Build Mystery Invention."

The infamous inventing bug was that you never even received the opportunity in Bridgeport (hence you never got as far as getting the life core).

I dont have that message on my Inventing table, I just have all the standard ones. Is there somewhere specific I have to click or something? Maybe delete my table and buy another one? Its really annoying...

It should be right there in the pie menu with all of the other options that come up when you click on the workbench.  It's been a little while since I've made one, but I believe it should be the option one step counter-clockwise from the top option.

I suppose you could try deleting the bench to see if that helps (I'd grab the scrap stored in it and put it in your sim's inventory).  But first, make sure you have some scrap in your bench, and if you don't, put some in there to see if that works.  There is something else in the game (what it is escapes me for the moment) that is "free" to do, but you can't do it unless you actually have what you need to do it.  It doesn't use the supplies, but unless you have them you don't get the option to do it.  I don't know that it will help, but it's worth a try.

I dont have the option at all, i would know if I did and its not the first time I have done this opportunity. I have the life core which you need to make the first one, but Im still not getting the pop-up menu. im wondering if a patch might work...

Are you in Bridgeport, because if so, that's why you can't do it. And there's no solutions for the Simbot-less Bridgeport Blues, sorry.

If she was in Bridgeport, she wouldn't even have the life core.  You just don't get it there.  She apparently started the opportunity chain but is not able to finish it.

Yes, you can get the life core in Bridgeport.  But when you take it to the inventing table, the option to make the SimBot isn't there.
