Private Graveyard - How to have only your active family who have died be buried there?

It seems as though every time any sim passes away (there's a lot of them in my world. >:) ) I have to check the community graveyard as well as my Sims' family graveyard. And invariably there's a few community sims there that end up getting placed at the "family graveyard" mausoleum.

Is there anyway through NRAAS to be able to restrict those being placed within the family mausoleum to be ONLY active family members? Or does the game just interpret them as no-longer a part of the family, but still retaining family tree connections and lump them in with every other sim that dies?

Every time there's a rash of deaths...well...my sim has to go to the family mausoleum and clear out ALL the community dead and shove them in the community graveyard mausoleum. A grim task, but well...has to be done, unless there's a way with NRAAS to make it so that only active family who have died end up in the private graveyard.

  • Because I was getting a lot of the community's dead in my mausoleum (I had originally placed a community lot mausoleum on my graveyard), and thus having to shuttle community sims off my graveyard community lot and over to the other town cemetery), I had to do away with the Spector mausoleum and just end up building my own cemetery mausoleum structure (how the heck did I spell it strucure"; I can't spell today) to make it a true Private cemetery even though it will be a community lot still but just won't allow any burials unless I personally put burials into it. Namely any of my family's sims. It will still be a community lot which means that townies and NPCs can still visit the lot, however they will just not be able to be buried there anymore.

    Of course, the lot got sold automatically by the game after all the upgrades and well...whattaya know. The Chikamoris are back at city hall buying the property right back.
