When any family reaches a net worth of $100k (the threshold for becoming Rich in my game), they are eligible to purchase rental properties.

I use two mods to accomplish this gameplay – NRaas Story Progression ( money module required) and this Apartments & Roommates Fix. I think it’s realistic that some of the richer Sims would own rental homes and the poorer Sims in town rent from them. Teen pregnancy is allowed and I follow the same rules of putting the mother on “birth control” after a baby is born. I learned that this works best for me after the insane baby boom we had in Pleasantview! For story purposes, I pretend these Sims are on birth control. I do not allow them to become pregnant again until their baby has grown into a child. PregnancyĪs soon as a Sim gives birth, I immediately disallow pregnancy via the SP menu at the Sim level. Sims with the “Dislikes Children” trait have pregnancy disallowed for their entire lives. When Sims have had their maximum number of children, I immediately disallow pregnancy via the SP menu at the Sim level.

Sims with the “Dislikes Children” trait never have children.

Sims with the “Surrounded by Family” LTW may have the five children required to fulfill the wish.

If the Sim is in a couple, the couple may have three children.

Sims with the “Family-Oriented” trait may have three children.

If one of the couple has no children of their own, the couple may have a third child.

Couples who live together or get married may have two children.

Single Sims who live alone may have a single child.

Here’s how I decide how many children a Sim can have in The Sims 3: I limit my population just as I do in The Sims 2 to avoid being overwhelmed with too many Sims in a generation or two. In cases where all letters are taken, I will start over and find the first letter with the fewest living Sims. until I come to the next letter of the alphabet that does not correspond to the name of a current living Sim. If there are living Sims with names that begin with the letter A, I move to letter B, etc. I begin with the letter A and go through the alphabet (skipping the letters Q, U, X, Y and Z). I name newly born Sims based on which letter of the alphabet currently has the fewest living Sims with a first name beginning with that letter. The only exception is family names, which I will sometimes give Sims (e.g. I use an alphabetic naming system similar to the one I used in The Sims 2. If the family doesn’t have enough money for the Sim to move out on their own, they can’t move. This way, they must use the current family’s funds to move. I always move Sims from the active family using the “Move” option via the computer or newspaper.

When splitting households, I don’t allow free money handouts. However, I will break this rule if I feel the Sim is better suited to a different wish, which happens occasionally. I typically assign the first LTW in the list of available options because it’s usually the most relevant. When teen or child Sims get wishes for specific LTWs, I ignore them as a passing fancy that will change as they grow.

I want all of the Sim’s traits to be present before I decide. I never assign them to children or teens.

I assign my Sims Lifetime Wishes when they age up to young adults. NOTE: I used to do a custom life span, but these days I prefer just leaving life spans at the default settings. The total lifespan of the in-game “Normal” setting is 90 days. Other than that, I keep the Sim Lifespan on the “Normal” setting so Sims age at the following rate:

I use Ani’s mod of randomness to achieve Sims 2-style aging. A Sim will only work on a skill or try to get a promotion if they roll a wish to do so. This means I only force my Sims to do the things they want to do (aside from their basic needs). But I am a slow player and each neighborhood is a long-term project, so I don’t mind if it takes a while to get through a round.Īs with my Sims 2 gameplay rules, I play TS3 using a wants-based play style. Shorter rotations help me move through the families more quickly. I tend to play larger neighborhoods in The Sims 3 (like Sunset Valley). I play each family for three Sim days and then move to the next.

You can see more about how to play rotationally in this tutorial. Last Update: (Added Population section.) More changes and rules are coming. I use a variety of mods – most importantly Nraas Story Progression and Master Controller – to achieve this play style.

I don’t like things to happen when I’m not actively playing a household – such as pregnancies, marriages, relationships, promotions, etc. Here are my gameplay rules for The Sims 3. I play in a style similar to The Sims 2 where I play every family in the neighborhood rotationally.
