Disabling sims motive self consciousness

when you got to go you got to go

Not really, and this isn't so much a matter of autonomy or free will as it is self-preservation in reaction to critical motive levels. You and I know that the sim still has a couple of sim hours (maybe) before they are at risk of emptying their bladder on the floor and maybe 12+ sim hours before they really starve to death, and maybe the motives aren't even showing up in the full red zone yet, but sims are programmed to take care of their critical needs when then can, not just when it's convenient.

For the actively played household, perhaps more user direction is in order. Routinely feed them a meal, send them to the bathroom, to bed or the nearest coffee machine, etc. before their motives drop too far?

You're right, even sims got to go when they got to go, it's funny if i imagined them talking and then my sims got to use a toilet

"Oh hey, you know that Hank Goddard getting all cozy with the new girl in town, anyway wait a sec I need to pee real quick"

*done using the toilet

"So where were we?"

So i guess i really need to prepare my sims by empting his bladder before sending them to a town, i kinda wish there is a mod for this. :|
