Is it possible to fix Set Family Relationships where it works full-time & not part-time? I mean where it still works after you have them as girlfriends, wifes and not break when you do that? I can't figure it out, I tried
Relatives & Ex-Relatives are in separate groups. Relatives in relative-group & Ex-Relatives in normal-NPC-group. Which is why your relatives are no longer related to each other.
set_family_relation will never work with Ex-Relatives because that NPC is no longer in the relative-group.
And I don't think set_NPC-NPC_relationship works on relative-group at all.
So sadly there is not solution to your problem.

Edit:
Set NPC-NPC relations works on family group. I'd previously given one of my daughter a gf with the command and I just tested it out giving my character's mother a sister.

Sometimes I wonder why I keep playing this game for but then I remember he is is ONE person working on this game compared to the sims which has a whole crew working for them with their bugs, reset the sims all the times. And they still haven't fixed it!

One issue with families is if your parent has a family member through an event, they don't show as your family member.

The Reassign button just assigns them random homes/careers. There's currently no way of of assigning them a specific career. At least no way that I've figured out.

I haven't tried yet, but making them a colleague may work.

I've considered experimenting with that for non-relatives. addColleague() doesn't appear to work with relatives though. There is a scene (vin_Base/Scenes/family/refer_a_relative.lpscene) which attempts to do this for the office job, but the relative never gets added as a colleague. After the scene you'll never see them appear at work and if you actually check their career location you'll see it hasn't moved to the office building where you work.

How do I return to my house
What do you mean? If you have a house and you got it right after starting the game, just press 0 and you gonna automatically go there.
If you're having the issue where you cannot return to your house after going outdoors, selected another destination first (Either using the map of your hotkeys), and then you'll be able to return home.

So, worked on a mod, tentatively titled "ririmudev_work". Basically, there wasn't much incentive to spend time at work, so this gives a bit of motivation:
  1. There 10 job levels to climb (the job titles might be a ripoff of something)
  2. "Work+" option to get money instead of jobexperience (becomes available after getting enough jobexperience)
  3. At levels 8-10, you randomly get dividend payments
  4. At levels 9-10, a chance to work on a Merger/Acquisition (M&A) deal comes up, which requires putting in a lot of hours to get the reward.
  5. There's a small penalty if you happen to be away from work during office hours (random check; doesn't happen often).
  6. There's also a spoof of an existing scene which is kind of interesting (for me); I won't spoil it here, but one can look at the script "executive_trap" if they wish (apologies if it's a bit complicated).
  7. Promotions check for intelligence and interpersonal, and require you to pay a buy-in at high levels. Buy-ins are mandatory, but if you fail the stat checks, there might be a workaround... who knows what that could be?
Well, it's a start... there's some code to polish, and there's plenty of room to improve the small amount of story-writing, but I figured it's at a point where I can share it if anyone's interested. Open to any feedback. Ciao; off to cook burgers (y)

I just hate it that the environment in this game does not react at all to the player. You can just start fucking your dog out of nowhere while your partner is just sitting in the room casually eating a sandwich like it is just another Sunday.
Then play the sims 3 with kinky world mod or start coding 'scene reactions'.
Eample:
Code:
If Player.isnaked() || [!Player.isVisible(Bottom) && !Player.isVisible(Bottom_Under)] || [!Player.isVisible(Top) && !Player.isVisible(Top_Under) && !Player.isMale()]   
    Luck = 0
    Luck += karma
    Luck += sneak
    If Luck > Random(100, 150)
        //nothing or someone reacts
    Else   
        followUp(public_indecency)//starts a scene where cops come to arrest you
    Endif
Endif

Just download the new updated game. Rename your old game file to new game file. Place new game file in fold with old game file. Replace files.
Progress is always kept so, no worries.

Note: If you want to keep Character presets then there are two methods.
1. Before dropping new game file Delete the presets.
2. Place your custom character presets in a mods folder that is in the lowest position, in the game Mod Manager. Your custom character presets will overwrite all other character presets.
3. Have a backup folder somewhere where you can just replace new game file character presets.
