Hello all.

I recently had an issue. I hadn’t played with the toymaking bench in forever and when I tried to, I discovered the pie menu was broken. There were more slots than there are possible craftable items and the extra slots were just duplicates of Pie Menu Strings for the other toys. So “Fire Truck” for example showed up three times.

I did binary searching (unfortunately it was a Reddit thread about a knitting mod having this effect that solved it so what a waste of my time but oh well)

By finding the mods that cause this issue, I deduce that it seems to solely be caused by cloning craftable toys.

And it very may well happen on other workbenches/crafting stations by cloning other craftables as well.

Anyone have any insights?

I toyed around with a cloned water wiggler that was causing the issue and I saw some differences in the OBJD file between the cloned toy and other similar custom objects.

The Selector Category. It was set to 119 for the cloned water wiggler.
I suspect this is why the toymaking bench freaked out and tried to assign pie strings to craftable options that didn’t exist. Then, it just filled in those pie menu options with repeats of the craftables.

If anyone can verify my theory, that would be cool.

I have made a Tumblr post about this and let’s all try to get the word out there bc I had to remove at least seven or so mods that were all cloned from craftable toys. No telling how many more are out there or being currently done. I spent almost 24 hours doing exhaustive binary searches which kinda my fault for not searching the net well enough but still, it shouldn’t be on me to fix others’ creations.

Thanks Simmers!

Mods I know for sure caused it:

decat’s cloned wiggler from garden of shadows
Tonyveis 4t2 nifty knitting
some of Katy’s bank items (I think the money bag?)
Wobbler from SimSlice

I saw your comment on tumblr (not rude imo) but couldn't find the cloned wiggler, and thought I had seen this answered before. But absolutely cannot find it in either discord/tumblr. Perhaps the linked tutorial by Mod might shed some light on it? Looking at all the craftable toys, it seems they are all set to 119 where the toys are set to 1.
