There is a tv film, i don't know the title, related about this topic.

The plot was :

a group of scientists made a living simulation, and go in the simulation to operate fixes and prevent making simulation. On day, one the scientific was killed, and left a message in the simulation for their coworkers. The message was : "take a road and follow no direction", a guy in the simulation followed the instruction and discovered that he was in a simulation, but the message were for the scientists who are in a simulation too.

If someone can find the movie, it could be great.

In 2000, The Thirteenth Floor was nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film but lost to The Matrix.

Yeah that's a pretty good sell. I'll check it out.

i liked it, but I like almost everything, so that's not much of a sell.

and go in the simulation to operate fixes and prevent making simulation.

Pardon?

I've seen it a long time ago, and if I remember well, they have to prevent the simulation people to build a simulation, otherwise the hardware will not be able to keep up. And big part of the plot, the scientists can load in the simulation.
