Default Pets can walk to work
I'm having a recurring issue (still trying to identify it) where carpools fail to show up. As a workaround, when it happens Sims can walk to school or work. Pets can't. Is there any hack that enables this?

The only thing I found was this, but it disables the carpool entirely so not what I want.

@Bulbizarre, I haven't seen a Pets Walk to Work mod, but do you have the updated version of Chris Hatch's Time Controller? I noticed that in the Stupid Random Questions Thread you put:

And since I was looking up the faqs for the Time Controller I noticed Chris posted an updated version here and specifically mentioned game ticks:

One of the faults with the time control is that it'll set the seconds to an odd number, since the game's time increments by 'ticks' which are two seconds the time never reaches zero seconds and a lot of things should happen at zero seconds. There is a couple of other faults with that file as well, a fixed version is available at:
CJH_TimeController.zip (4.4kb)


So I was just wondering if you had issues even when using the version from 2019. (BTW, I did a search on the forum and I don't see another version posted after that one, so the June 27 2019 is probably the latest version.)

My version of the Time Controller is from 2018. I'll try that.

A small warning for future people Googling this thread: You may want to disable testingcheats when first loading a lot after updating the time controller. Every lot had a bunch of things (both on and off-world) throw errors about node transitions - thankfully it seems to be only once per item.

My current household hasn't had any missing carpools since I installed the updated time controller!

That's great! Good to know the updated version solves the issue. After reading yours and others posts about how much it adds to the game, I'm looking to try the Time Controller myself.
