Sorry if this has been asked before, I spent ages searching for it both on and off MTS but only wound up with a lot of unrelated topics. Also this is probably AL-specific but since there isn't an AL category, I put it under general.

Been playing AL for a week (my first time) with a lot created by someone on MTS. It went great until the landlord dropped some trash in the common area. Now it won't go away. The "clean up" option appears if I click on it, but my Sims will just walk up to it, do nothing, and the "clean up" disappears from their queue. The landlord walks around it like it doesn't exist. It breeds roaches and my Sims have gotten flu from it multiple times. And it's smack in the middle of the common area!

I tried moveObjects on but couldn't select the trash (or anything else in the common area). I haven't used moveObjects before so maybe I'm not doing it right?

How do I fix this? I have four families active and would hate to lose the lot. Thanks!

The easiest way to get rid of it is to enable testing cheats (boolprop testingCheatsEnabled true), then shift-click the rubbish pile, hit Force Error, then Delete. Remember to turn testing cheats back off afterwards.

Worked like a charm. Thanks very much!
