    I believe the "Bike" part refers to the town .. tart, for lack of a better or less crass word :D
  • Thanks everyone! I'm not a native speaker so I was clueless, I first thought that they woohooed on a bike! xD This will be Raquel's 5th child. :#
  • I never play with that SP Personality activated myself, but actually the Town Bike is a bit more conniving than a Tart. The Bike's goal, whether successful or not, is to break up existing partnerships and marriages by seducing and sometimes making babies with at least one of the partners.

    Actual bicycles or motorcycles are not required. :)
  • The SP Personalities (bundled together in Lovers, Meanies, Cops & Robbers, Vampires, Fairies, Others) are optional add-on modules that each add a series of clan leaders and members. Their purpose is to add measured amounts of chaos to otherwise more or less orderly progression. It's not required to use any of them and most players would not want all of them in play and activated at the same time, but some do like more chaos in town than others.

    The individual personalities within the bundles can be switched on and off on City Hall or in-game computers under NRaas > SP > General Options > Options:Personalities (switch enable progression on and off) or if desired the entire module(s) can be removed with no harm done to an ongoing game. I usually keep a couple of them going per world, but my inactive sim population tends to be chaotic enough for my own tastes without tremendous amounts of extra help from the full sets of them. :)
  • @igazor Oooh! Thanks for the explanation! So that's why Ariel and Betsy instantly became enemies and broke up!
    It's the first time I've seen this category (or I wasn't paying enough attention to the summary... :p) and I didn't know you can turn them on and off? I'm not savvy with SP yet, but it's interesting!
  • I haven't fiddled with Options:Personalities yet! I think I have almost all of the add-on modules though. Thanks!
