Crammyboy, the hack works. Sometimes the Sim doesn't get the queue for watch out but if he or she does then it disappears and the other things queued stay queued. Thank you! Another annoying BHAV suppressed!

Hi Crammyboy, great hack! But after playing the game for a while, I noticed that everytime my sim play poker, he/she gets stuck. After being delt the cards, they just sit there and play with their chips. Nobody deals a new deck anymore like each poker player gets to deal after a round. After I removed it from my downloads folder, everything was normal again. I have the collections file from wintermutai and the no censor hack, Other than that i don't have any other hacks installed. Not sure if your hack's the one causing this but you may want to take a look just to be sure.
thanks again.

Thank you very much. It was driving me crazy that my sims always stopt to "watch out" for nothing and forgot the rest. Now they don't hihi.

Hmm. This hack just isn't working for me at all. Even with it installed my sims come home from work, hug their child, and then they both do the watch out action.

If they are standing on the driveway, then it will happen. This only reduces the chance of it happening, it does not get rid of it completely.

I've never seen this hack actually prevent the driveway from shooing my sims. I think I would prefer "Road Waffle!" to this Driveway Nazi bug.

User-driven actions should *always* be a higher priority than any other action. Any design that contradicts that is obviously a flaw and should have been corrected by Maxis QA.

V2 is OK as long as you are not using your work-delivery hack.
V3 has a longer delay and seems ok with work-delivery.

I wish it would do "road kill", but without the high priority "shoo" a sim driving home would sit in the car off world until the driveway was clear.

Your're forgeting about the game's fire. Another awesome hack, Crammyboy.

Fire is actually a perfect example of what I'm talking about.

The effect should be such that the player is tempted to be distracted away from controlling, not that the control should be literally taken away.

Whatever insanity prompted Maxis to vomit up this kind of "design" BS should have resulted in a designer getting fired, not in its being implemented. There is absolutely no positive outcome EVER when you take control away from the player.

A game is only as fun as it is possible to control. Every game designer should eat and sleep this motto.

I've noticed, along with the Taxi hack, After about 2 seconds, if I leave my sim next to the vehical. It does apear, if my sim moves away from the vehical when it first get's out and activates the alarm, the watch out dialog never shows.

All in all, it's a good hack, and makes it easier when the sims first get out of the vehical. I have not noticed any additional errors while using this hack with others.
Let the light shine through.

Cool... They got the pets added...
Now all they have to do is add the Farms in Sims 2.
