The house I built has two kitchens. There is a big kitchen on the first floor and a small kitchen on the third floor. When I tell my sim to cook something, by clicking on the stove on the first floor, she grabs the ingredients from the fridge and then proceeds to go all the way up to the third floor kitchen to prep and cook the food! Why???? There is plenty of counter space in the first floor kitchen and none of the objects were placed using the moveobjects cheat. Also, she's the only one in the kitchen so no other sims are blocking counters or the stove. Why won't my sim cook in the kitchen she is already in? Why go all the way up to the THIRD FLOOR? lol

But the sims seem to like washing dishes in the bathroom better than in the kitchen sink too, sooooo.
I dunno!
But actually, come to think of it, I had that problem in 3 too when I played the hunger games challenge. My slave sim always wanted to go cook in the contestant kitchen rather than her own. I ended up deleting the fridge and stove in the contestant house.
Keep in mind - just because you know how apts are supposed to work - the Sims do not. They need to be taught that stuff which programming is their teachers. No matter how bad we want something - means until programmers make it happen - we will have to wait to do those things.

Yes but we are real people - the sims are not. As i said they need the programming to "know" things like that.

Agreed. Still waiting for that patch. It would help some of my gameplay tremendously.
Yep, yep, me too. I really want the option to lock doors too. Missing the TS3 locking doors option.
So I have a pair of brothers and their families living on the same lot and I built a duplex for them. Everything in the building is identical and mirror image.
Down to the issue; Sometimes I tell one of my sims to cook something and the start, but stop halfway through. I kept trying and trying, and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. Then, I thought to unlock the front door to the other half of the duplex. Sure enough, my sim takes her half-made cake, walks over to the kitchen on the other side, and puts it in the oven there.
I would like to stress again, that the kitchens are identical (Same counters, same appliances, even the same layout), but for some reason she didn't want to use her own oven.
I would appreciate any help you can offer.
I have always wondered why the Sims would do that? I am not sure, but maybe it has something to do with the last appliance placed on the lot. Maybe try deleting the first oven and replace it with a new one and see if they will choose that one first!
