ya'll! Guess what? I've been experimenting with
Smoke Alarms in Trees. I find that when my trees are hit by lightning, my sims run out, jumping all around in a panic and a few of them have actually caught on fire. Some survived and other they were shaking hands with the 'Reaper'.
So what I came up with was this:
Step #1... Select the tree you want to place your alarm.
Step #2... You want to ensure your alarm is high in the branches.
Step #3... Select and place your support. Select the alarm like you would other objects in build mode.
Step #4... Need to activate cheat, "Moveobjects On".
Step #5... Need to make sure your ground is level, or it won't work.
Step #6... Ooops! Typo - I was trying to say here, by using your mouse to 'Zoom' in closer to branches, to see where you placed your alarm.
Step #7...Step #8... Your alarms will stay in the location there were placed, but if you decide to move your lot to the Bin, you will need to replace them.
