Default My bot suddenly behaves differently
It got abducted by aliens, it came back and I noticed if i press my bot while playing as her, I cannot do the regular options like Hibernate mode, or...the other stuff you should be able to do when clicking "yourself"

Check this pic:


Its in Swedish, but "kolla sociala grupper" is "check social groups"
And the other Holofon I belive is the same as in english...
Its the kind of computer the bot automatically has.
The third... you all know that one.

But I cant get the regular options to appear after that stupid damn abduction they did...

And I just noticed that if I play my creator sim of the bot, he cant do anything with her either! Like equip with processors, or give service!

Help!

as with so many things in the real world, the only cure is to hit it firmly with a rolled up newspaper.

Maybe try a hard reset with Master Controller?

If you have Master Controller installed, I'd take it into the stylist or CAS menu that is found in Master Controller. (Sometimes I have problems with bots losing their floating ability. The reset on MC doesn't fix bots for me, but resaving it in MC's stylist does.) I'd try both MC's reset or MC's stylist and see if one of those works for you.

MC's reset shouldn't change any progress you've made with the bot, don't worry.

I fear there is nothing you can do at the moment but get rid of that bot. I had the same a few days ago and tried everything already suggested by the others here: soft reset, hard reset with MasterController, changing its appearance in CAS, moving it out and back in (which only made it lose all of its trait chips and voice set), switching households, resetting it with DebugEnabler and several other things I cannot remember right now. It remained broken.
There is some speculation at the official forum that I found which suggests that it is related to a broken Energy motive, but I can't for the life of me see what could have caused this. My solution was to kill it and build a new one.

Yeah, bots are a pain sometimes. Worse case situation, save the trait chips and save the body part colors in CAS.
