RIP :(

Those seem like pretty reasonable rates to me. Maybe an MC > Status report on the Household will reveal what's going on, once you adjust their caste membership. Perhaps they are living beyond their means, driving expensive cars or something like that?

no autonomous proposal though

Sims can't propose autonomously, unless there is a mod that makes it possible.

can they not? i thought NRAAS storyprog pushed for marriages? i've seen inactives become married before?

NRaas SP will change relationships, but only "offscreen," so to speak. Sims will get engaged or married, or break up, without performing the interactions themselves. And of course SP isn't going to change a relationship in your current household while you're playing it; that's your job. If you want your active sim's new guy to propose without your directing him to do so, you'll need a different mod from another source, although I don't remember which one. But I've seen it mentioned here before, so someone else will definitely know.

No, inactive (non-player controlled) sims move their romantic relationships forward and backwards with each other. Not with your active sim.

It's a mod by bluegenjutsu at TFM's Sims Asylum that allows for that -- More Romantic Autonomy. I love many of her mods, but this one adds far too much randomness to the mix for many of us to handle well.

Is that why my sims are always dragging each other to the bedroom or making out any chance they get? :D I will admit it can get a bit out of control especially if woohoo is a little "Risky" but I put up with it. *shrug* to each their own >:)

Making out and woohooing do not themselves move romantic relationships forwards and backwards. I meant status changes in coupling -- becoming RIs, Steadies, Fiances, Married (or going backwards if things aren't going that well).

But there can be a lot of reasons for the behavior described. Maybe you aren't giving them enough other toys to play with? :p

bluegenjutsu's mod comes in different flavours. I made the mistake of putting in the one that included teens and that let them go as far as marriage on their own. Huge mistake when you have a bunch of teens in the household suddenly deciding it's time to get married. I got sick of raising other families' teens and got the next one down that only allows them to go as far as proposal.

Ah yes, that makes sense. I've moved single sims in before and later I've come across them and seen that they're 'married'.

I'll give that mod a download, my Sim is a girl so autonomous marriage proposal from the guy would be good. I could "cheat" and switch to him propose then switch back.

Anyway thanks for all your help @igazor I think I have my NRAAS setup perfectly now as it was before. The new site's looking good by the way!

Aw, no. RIP save file. That's a lot of play. :(

Oh wow it's you, I just downloaded your legacy island 3. I've played Storybrook County for like 3 years now I fancy a change, was about to move my family over to your map to give it a try :)

Cool! ~I hope you like it. :mrgreen:

I LOVE IT!!!!! O.M.G why haven't I played this map before???? Just looking at the picture it looks small I think that's what put me off I thought it'd have no space for houses. but strangely it seems to have more space than maps that look bigger, one of my pet peeves with custom worlds is they stuff them with 39523905239050923509235 community lots usually 2-3 of the same kind! but then only 50 residential lots. but yours is perfect and so balanced, you have 1 of everything essential then the houses plus lots of empty houses lots and it's just so well laid out and beautifully crafted. everytime my sim goes somewhere there's always other sims there nowhere is empty, it feels big and busy. overall it's awesome! I love it, my sim loves it and her children will love it!

is there a way to edit the frequency/base chance of each interaction? like we do with retuner & storyprog etc? no settings to set chance of marriage proposal to 0.5 instead of 10 or whatever it is etc?
