Overview

This primitive allows objects/sims to be snapped into each other's slots. This is used for accessories, as well as for objects. For example. when an accessory is on a sim, it is in one of their Body Slots; or when a sim is sleeping on a bed, the sim is snapped into the bed's slot.

Use

There is no instruction wizard for this instruction, so the following table details the meaning of each of the operands.

Problems?

I have had numerous problems with this instruction just not snapping into the provided slot and yet not reporting failure either. I'm not entirely sure why it does it, but sometimes, I just have to revert to using the option to immediately snap into a slot upon Create New Object Instances (0x002A) instead. Not always what you want, but at least provides an alternative.
