Very "handy." Nice "touch." Okay, I'll stop with the puns. Thanks for this.

Obviously there's a lot of bugs in a life sim but with how many staff EA employs you'd think at least one would notice things like this. It's good we have dedicated modders to fix the issues big and small that arise. Thanks for this.

How did the Object Tuning XMLs for these fare after June patch? Did they also get hit with the debug recoding malarkey?

To be honest I haven't checked yet as this fix is still functioning as intended.

ETA: Just took a look and it would seem they have had the debug and Set As Head bits added to the Super Affordances but I can't find any other new bits of code mentioning the Human value. So I guess an update is required but isn't urgent.

ETA 2: Updated!

I found an issue with this mod.

With this mod installed, i can't shift click and delete books on the floor. Without this mod, i can shift click and delete.
I have other mods so i'm not sure if any of these are causing a conflict, i didn't test for that.

Any books or just the thin ones this mod fixes? If the option has stopped for all books then it isn't this mod causing it.

Thanks for updating, it is appreciated! Just wanted to let you know the updated mod will not override the old one due to the spelling of tuning. :-)

Thanks Etta01 for pointing that out. I just noticed it myself and have reuploaded the file with the correct filename to overwrite the old one. Sorry about that.

Is this obsolete?

Nope. Just double checked in my game and it's still needed.

I can confirm that this mod is still required and still working for the 1.40 Jungle Adventure patch.

Hey, just to let you know, this seems to be broken in Seasons. Whenever I'd pick the 'Read...' option on a bookcase it'd just give me an LE and doesn't bring up the picker. I did 50/50 and this was the culprit.

Thanks for the report.
I can confirm that I will need to update this mod.
Thank you also very much for explaining what the issue was an not simply posting "This is broken".

This was driving me nuts.

How does EA _not_ check the "fixes" category on Sims mod sites and incorporate them? 🙄

I have now updated the file to include all the Flower Arranging skill books from Seasons as well as the level 1 Acting skill book from Get Famous.

With this update I have also removed the options for Klepto Sims to swipe and return books as this is a change that has been made by EA to all other books. As I don't know why the change has been made I felt it best to fall in line with what they have done.

This mod is working fine with the Island Living patch.
