    @manicobsessive There is a bug since November which causes sims to not be able to use stairs if there is a room without a floor above the stairs.

    If you have get to work, go to the Old Quarter Inn bar for example. Your sim will not be able to get to the second floor.

    Had that bug several times, you need to delete the stairs and replace it.

    The solution is to remove the floor above, you can do that by replacing the stairs and the fences on the second floor for example, but it often ruins your build or builds another floor above so the stairs are not open anymore.

    Thanks for explaining. :) Can't believe this has been going on since November and they haven't fixed it yet. I hope they sort it out soon!

    Maybe they'll release a future Kit Pack of Bunk Beds to catch up a bit - full of old meshes that are easy to make.
    Prepping a list of mods to add after Infants are placed into the game. Because real life isn't 'nice'.

    Conor talked about Bunk Beds and Sleeping Bags during the Tiny Living Stuff livestream in 2020.

    Maybe a Sleepover Kit is planned

    I don't know. I think a Gamepack is releasing the last week of March cause bunk beds are coming in the March Patch.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they could have made Bunk Beds for a while, and only released it now because they knew Kits would be controversial and wanted to distract people.

    I get this bug not with stairs but with doors and have to go into bb mode and delete and replace the doors. It happens on many lots including rentals. It’s very annoying and I feel so bad for those of you who have this with stairs. Maybe it’s a routing issue?

    I don't think they'd be giving bunk beds in a patch cause of kits. It's way more likely bunk beds are coming as part of Gamepack or even Expansion Pack Pre Update. A Gamepack is more likely though because we got an Expansion in November. We're way overdue for a Gamepack.

    If this is the case , then we are getting a Pack at the end of this month because the last Livestream stated that bunkbeds are coming late March.

    If I had to guess, it would probably be a late March patch before an early April pack, but I'll happily be wrong.

    Looking forward to bunk beds, but I am admittedly looking forward more to having stairs and lifestyles working well. Fingers crossed.

    This may sound like a dumb question, but since I know almost nothing at all about these kits that simmers are talking about. But what is a kit? Is that like a new pack entirely or is it replacing the Stuff Packs? Or is it something that's just going to be in the patches?



    Thank you for update on this CLP. But will these Kit Packs be replacing the Stuff Pack, or will we have both KP and SP?

    Not sure.
    The livestream for the KP's has answered this question, and the answer is no they will not be replacing the SP's any time soon. Otherwise they would have stated that about the KP's in the livestream.

    Deleting the stairs and replacing it always worked for me so far.

    My thoughts exactly, what if maybe a private school pack. I like to think they experimented with 2 different universities for DU to maybe have more than 1 private school if they were ever to add them.

    I hope kits aren't replacing stuff packs.

    They have to, unless they hire more people. You can't just make more DLC without cutting from anything else.

    They might still make stuff packs but there are most likely going to be less of them now.

    they said in the live stream that kits are easier to work on cause their smaller so they can be released while we wait for whatever comes after.

    Yeah it's probably too late for them to announce an EP now, so a game pack is more likely.

    I always thought the April survey of last year was for a potential game pack. If they selected a theme after the survey, it's totally plausible they're just finishing up the pack now for a late March release.

    They are probably easier to work on yes, and they can maybe hire extra help as well, but I'm a little skeptical about how they are going to manage their time with so many different packs. They already have EP's, GP's and SP's and now they will get a fourth layer that they have to manage...

    I have always assumed that the draught between packs was because they were working on their next packs, so right now they are working on their packs for 2022 for example. But now kits will add development time to that.

    I'm hoping it's Romance but malls are a close 2nd.
