My Sim keeps getting tired before anyone else...

So first, I do have the Relativity Mod and I have the motive decay changed and the game is running at 50% the normal time. I have all the levels set where I want them. I am not even sure if that is where the issues lies, though. One of the Sims in my household seems to be getting tired at a much faster rate than everyone else. I am not sure why? He always has to take a nap when he gets home from school because of this. Has anyone ever had this issue before? What can I do?

  • The thing about Relativity and its decay/delta settings is that they tend to apply across the board to all sims. So a more common symptom of settings needing to be readjusted would be that everyone in town, active and inactive, is getting tired too early in the day. Or no one ever being tired at bedtime or everyone all around you waking up at 3am fully rested.

    A few threshold questions, but you may have already thought of these things.

    -- Is this sim getting out of bed less than fully rested and lacking the fully rested moodlet whereas the others are getting something closer to a full night's sleep with totally restored energy? If he isn't staying up all hours of the night, maybe he needs a better quality bed.
    -- Does this sim's day start significantly earlier than everyone else's?
    -- Is this sim routinely engaging in any activities that drain energy faster, such as athletics (among other things), whereas the others are not?
    -- Why can't he sleep in class like the rest of us did when we were in school? (although effective, this one isn't meant to be serious as there will be repercussions like detention if it becomes a habit)

    Does he hang around Charles the Evil Chicken anywhere?
  • Is the sim a werewolf? If they are and their lycanthopy skill is maxed at level 10 the game considers them a permanent werewolf which causes their Energy, Fun and Bladder motives to fill up slowly.
