Re: Feedback on relationship satisfaction

@SheriGR I'm finding one of the worst is with toddlers and toddler/infant relatives. Especially in related households. I had some of those relationships that reset to zero between households. So I give them all the Friendly Relationship trait and as it's such hard work to build the relationship back up again with little ones especially, I'm letting it get to zero and then I'm getting it back again with Friendly Introduction. I just had to do that for my farmer Niamh and her little nephew Owen last week. They started out in the same household but quickly became strangers once she moved out to her own farm.

I've been testing too to see if it makes a difference turning down invites or rejecting phonecalls, making sure if my Sims turn down one of these that they phone the Sim back for a long chat.

It occurred to me when I saw a massive relationship drop after turning down the Motive Trials invite. I actually saw the red line over my Sims head to signify something had decreased and the relationship between Aunt and niece had really dropped by quite a bit after she gave the "only if it lasts less than a fortnight" answer. That seems harsh because it's not always possible to attend the Motive Trials.

So, next I'm splitting off a Sim from her mother and sister now to move to Ciudad Enamorada and see how I can maintain the relationships better. I'm going to use computer chatting instead on this household to keep the relationships up, since phone/video calls didn't really make much difference. Computer chatting used to boost relationships but I haven't used them for a while so want to see if that's changed. Once I've finished her house that's next on my list.
