Thank you!! I can't explain how much it bothered me when I would tell my Sim to pick up their toddler, then they walk downstairs and complain about not being able to pick up their kid who's upstairs lol.

You know, I think this might be your most important mod yet. Don't get me wrong, I love everything you've done, but this issue was one that made me hate having toddlers in the house. Especially the smaller houses that I prefer playing in because the routing was just infuriating. I'm looking forward to having this in my game.

THANK YOU!!!!! I've seen sims literally leave the house, go all the way outside, and then into a different building to pick up a toddler. Maddening!

Thanks so much! I was having a blast with your other toddler mods and this issue kept happening. For a while, stairs were the bane of my existence :P. So thank you.
I had a quick question, though - I noticed that with some interactions (especially Put in Crib and the Sit and Feed one from your other mod), the "put toddler down" actions pops up and they don't end up finishing the interaction. Will this mod fix that problem too?

Ah perfect, now they don't have to walk down into the basement and then realize that the toddler is at the second floor and just forget it. This a fix we defenitly need. Thank you very much.

This is awesome! Thank you so much, Savanita! No more of the sim traipsing around the whole world just to pick up their kid who is sitting right in front of them! <3

Thanks for making this. Now my sims won't walk down the stairs when trying to pick their little one up

If there is one thing annoying, is the Toddler moving around instead of the Sim. I have 4 toddlers in my game right now. Will test this out :D

Tested: Works 100% as intended. Toddlers do not adjust and move around. The Sim will indeed pick the Toddler from ANY angle. So useful when they are playing the blocks and they will step back... Walk away from the toy and wadle around and around... And THEN the Sim will pick them up. Now NO MORE. INSTANT PICKUP 😍❤️

Omg. This problem has been the bane of my existence since I first started playing this game in 2014. I like to build compact houses so trying to play with toddlers in them has always been a nightmare lol. Thank you so much, Sweetsimmer!!!!

Cool mod! I’ve not really had this issue tbh, I mostly experience the opposite issue where they walk miles to put down the child. ”Feed on floor” okay lemme take the elevator down into the lobby.

I was really looking forward to using this mod, but for me it doesn't seem to work. I play in a house with small hallways and spiral staircases, so toddlers were always a pain. But even with this mod, my parent sims will walk downstairs to pick up their toddler, who stays stuck upstairs. I don't have any other pick-up mods downloaded. I do have a ton of NRAAS-mods, random sim fixes, and the randomizer mod installed. I will try moving to a house with regular stairs and see if that makes the mod work.

This mod makes you not being able to click on floors. I can't "Go here" or "Run here" or clean up messes or other things, was annoying so I removed the mod again.

I'm able to do those things with my sims just fine.

All I want to do is play sims
