Default Plumbots keep trying to kill my puppy
First and foremost, I apologize, I don't quite know where to put this, but I'm desperate.

My sim lives in a house with a foundation and my plumbots are obsessed with "Putting the dog out", which would be a cool feature if it weren't for the fact that he can't climb the stairs to get to his food dish, plus I personally don't *want* to dog outside. Has anyone had this issue and is there a way to stop it?

Maybe you should kill the evil plumbot instead?

What trait chips does it have? Friendly Functions unlocks some interactions with pets, I think.

Spray the bot with water and yell BAD PLUMBOT.

The laws of robotics only say that a robot may never harm a human; they don't say anything about puppies.

In all seriousness: try locking the doors, so the dog and/or the Plumbot can't use them? Failing that, but an extra food dish outside where he can reach it?

Or move the family to a house that isn't built on a foundation?

Perhaps you should get a robotic puppy, might take to it more

Ahhh gotta love sim player problems

Maybe put a food dish outside where the puppy can reach it for a start? Or if you built a little deck or balcony on the same level of the house maybe they'd put the dog there instead and the dog can get back in? Can you stop plumbots from going through certain doors/gates?I don't know what can be done with the plumbot if anything, I don't have ITF.

Plumbots are members of your household, so I would imagine it'd be possible to keep them out of some doors/gates using the "specify Sims for this door" option.
