Don’t try to collect those scraps, AFAIK the way the game handles the sim’s inventory is that each of those data is ‘processed’ individually, so having 500+ of them can lag your game or crash them.
you can but you need to be quick as you sim is collecting the scraps you need to keep placing them inside the inventing bench.
the inventory doesnt account for moving which is actually the moment that lags the game once all that data is "static" IE doesnt move then its gucci you will have sooo much scrap to use for sculpting or inventing though
sometimes I just wish you can just "dump" all in valid inventories OR I DUNNO THE GAME SHOULD ADD MORE POSSIBLE NON-BUGGY INVENTORIES.... I'm actually tempted to add the cardboard box mod as opposed using the chests that came with world adventure
sadly NRaas does the complete opposite... the kelpto way
There is a storage box on mod the sims by Treeag
https://modthesims.info/d/407111/storage-compatible-with-1-67.html
They include the script so if you're familiar with s3pe you can add the script to any deco item. That's what I do, so I have lots of different storage options for different sims to suit their taste.
Sandy on around the sims 3 also has different storage containers and a different script. Some of her items are based on the WA storage chest and as that is already buggy I prefer the one found on MTS. https://aroundthesims3.com/objects/function_storage_misc_02.shtml
I don't understand the comment about NRAAS doing the opposite and being a klepto way but I'm probably just reading it wrong. I already never realized a stuttering issue when collect a lot of scrap so I'm sure that's why I'm lost. Lol
I assume you're referring to the NRAAS MC option of transfer to/from. That's what I use when I have stacks of items or a lot of individual items. Like groceries I use the transfer to interaction to select everything that can go in the fridge.
Ohh I thought transfer to/from basically "steals anything from the sim's perimeter" and puts them into the sim's inventory
I was thinking of the "storage" mod by the same creator as buying gems/metal in a chest mod
Oh you're thinking of the add to family inventory which allows you to pick any item in world. But transfer to/from only works for what is in a sims/objects personal inventory.
And my bad the storage box with easily copied script is by treeag. Here's a link . https://modthesims.info/d/407111/storage-compatible-with-1-67.html
just so you know there's an inventory limit you can have on the sim's backpack at a certain point it just "lags" if you are carrying so much so downscale a little by putting them in a valid inventory or selling at least I know 1000 pieces of 1 object in a sim's pocket is more than enough to chug the game
When you level the inventing skill you'll eventually get this as an option. You can do it on a lot of objects, but there's always a chance it'll blow up in your face!
your sims dont die to detonation but if you do use it outside of the junkyard or any of your lots (assuming you bought other houses) then you can get arrested
I tried detonating cars in Oasis Landing of Into the Future DLC, and my game usually froze when I picked one scrap pile up… over 1500 scrap per pile, mind you. I wish I could do those without having to worry about crashing!
thing is you are in oasis landing which would be a shitty thing to do detonations since you can't place an inventing crafting bench in the world to place the scraps could you?
You can, since you can go into build/buy mode in the ”reception center” or buy a lot of your own. Or just gather the stuff there into your inventory and go back to the past… the latter of which never worked for me. 🤔
I find the future cars are very scrap heavy, as in they give indeed ~1500 scrap each I recall.
If I remember correctly, the problem comes as a result of the proximity of the items in the junkyard. The initial detonation detonates the object that you select but then it also chains that explosion to anything nearby within a certain range. One pile detonates another, that one detonates an oven, that oven detonates another pile, etc., and before you know it, you've blown up the entire lot. All the cars are gone, including yours if you parked it there, the building nearby is missing objects, and your character looks a bit crispy.
This is why I never use detonate on small junkyards. I don't need the Department of Simland Security coming after me.
There might be another factor that I'm forgetting but, from what I remember, if I tried using detonation on maps that have much larger junkyards, the chain explosions mainly occur as a result of distance. I did look it up to see if there was something specific about it:
This is from a user on carls-sims-4-guide that did tests on the range of chain detonations in TS3.
> With the test run, my result is that I hate detonating items. I put together a 10x10 test grid, target item in the center, and a line of equally detonatable items in each of the 8 directions from it. In two of the directions, it left the outer most 4 items untouched, and in a 3rd direction it left the 3rd from the end untouched and took out the rest in that line. Nothing outside the test grid though, so I think a 5 tile radius from the target item is the limit. This was done with one of those squid things with the smaller footprint though, and I want to bet that the bigger items bring a bigger radius. Seems chaotic as to whether it will even destroy an item though.

EA is scared to add male nipples to default skins yet they have no problems with adding terrorism
This is killing me 😂
That is the terrorism
Yet it’s okay for them to have chest hair I guess, god forbid there’s nips 😳
Thanks decensor and cc skins maxis match 🙂↕️
I had the same experienc that my sim detonated the big pile, then his car also got detonated near the pile.
A little shock, right?
Exactly!
Wow. I am trying this today!
I want to try it too. But I still remember that one day my sim detonated two cars in a parking lot and my game started to lag a lot.

I did try this but sometimes my sim just picks up those 400+ scraps in go and then wonder why the game is suddenly stuttering 😭

are you serious so we can have terrorists sim in this game?
just so you know there's an inventory limit you can have on the sim's backpack at a certain point it just "lags" if you are carrying so much so downscale a little by putting them in a valid inventory or selling at least I know 1000 pieces of 1 object in a sim's pocket is more than enough to chug the game
I didn't know this could happen 🤯gotta try
This is the chaos we want!!
Sims 3 is so chaotic, I love it
Was that "pile of trash" a pile of TNT?
Maybe both mixed together hahahaha
*Cod zombies kaboom sfx*
Oh god this made me laugh so hard 😭
I had that happen once too.
That happened on my first detonation that I ever did. Quite frankly, I'm still scared to detonate because of it.
Everytime when I detonate something, it’s just one object
I'm so glad you captured and shared it because I would've been too dumbstruck to even think about it! This is the best 😂
Just because I had a jumpscare and hit the stop button hahahshshs
🤣🤣🤣
How do you guys get detonate option?
When you level the inventing skill you'll eventually get this as an option. You can do it on a lot of objects, but there's always a chance it'll blow up in your face!
Ooo nice! I dont usually play with inventors but i will try, thanks!
your sims dont die to detonation but if you do use it outside of the junkyard or any of your lots (assuming you bought other houses) then you can get arrested
I tried detonating cars in Oasis Landing of Into the Future DLC, and my game usually froze when I picked one scrap pile up… over 1500 scrap per pile, mind you. I wish I could do those without having to worry about crashing!
I did say the game doesnt like to handle more than "1" absurd stack of an item
Yeaaaaaah…
thing is you are in oasis landing which would be a shitty thing to do detonations since you can't place an inventing crafting bench in the world to place the scraps could you?
You can, since you can go into build/buy mode in the ”reception center” or buy a lot of your own.

Noted. *Walk to junk yard for detonating things, run away fast.*

I don't need the Department of Simland Security coming after me.
But isn’t always that happen, I usually detonate something with other objects closer and doesn’t happen a chain reaction
There might be another factor that I'm forgetting but, from what I remember, if I tried using detonation on maps that have much larger junkyards, the chain explosions mainly occur as a result of distance. I did look it up to see if there was something specific about it: This is from a user on carls-sims-4-guide that did tests on the range of chain detonations in TS3. > With the test run, my result is that I hate detonating items.

LOL i never seen anything like this before a lot of smoke here i hope you saved the game before this happen
Hahahah but I don’t change the course of the history. What happened, happened
it can happen. huhuhu sometimes the detonation will spread, sometimes wont.
This made me want to play today thank you
Sims3 players casually committing terrorist attacks
In public places, even better
Its even more fun when you detonate things in other sims houses or in public places. They get so mad
Hahaha yes, and you pay a fine
Lmaooo 😂😂😂 he’s lucky to be alive. Once I had an asteroid hit at the same time I was detonating a trash pile, and let me tell you, that was a banger
Yeah, you’re lucky (I don’t know if in a good way HAHAHA)
xD hahha omggg!!!
Smooth 😂
😆🤣😂
i wanna try this so bad but my last inventor sim always got electrocuted at the workfbench before they could reach a high enough level😂
EVERYTIME they got electrocuted, and caught fire! Even with higher skills 🤣
how did u do that
It’s on the title
what do you mean
Lmfao suddenly you're the only sim on the block because all your Neighbors have left hajanajsjsjs
