Story Progression Settings
I hope it's okay to ask about this here. I came back to TS3 after playing just TS4 for a bit and I wanted to try and play a whole world in TS3. I did try playing with the included story progression in...

Very good point(s) @igazor. Thus far, any time I've had a question about Nrass, you and @Turjan have been right there to help. Nrass seems a bit complicated for the average user. I consider myself above average and thus with your help can get this figured out. From my past posts over the years, you know I've had an aversion to mods because I've seen what they can do to a game. In the case of Nrass, it's obvious that the designer(s) are/were professionals.
I'm just learning about how to use this program to enjoy TS3 the way I want to enjoy it. For a decade I had wished the TS3 was more like TS2 with the rotational play. And with this program, I've so far had a blast enjoying my six founding families. It's a learning curve to see how the town plays along with me.
ETA: So I had forgotten to make sure my stay-at-home parents were either registered as retired or self-employed on my first rotation with the families. I got them all on second rotation except for one family: the Diamonds. The mom was pregnant and you can't register when you are pregnant. So I let them go and rotated out, making sure to put them in the caste rotation. Then I moved on to my other five families, playing 5 days each. When I got back to the Diamond family, apparently the mom decided to be a stylist while I was gone, and she had gotten up to level 8 in her career! All this time, her two babies were laying on the floor of their little house (or so I assume). So my dilemma is whether to have her husband give up his career as a professional athlete to take care of the kids, or have mom quit to stay home. Alternately, I have learned if mom can make it to level 9, she can work from home. I might just have her husband take a couple of days off so mom can realize her dreams! What an interesting turn of events that I totally didn't plan!
