I'm trying to find a viable easy way to get rid of ghosts, without causing game corruption. I aged up Timothy Su from childhood to elder and then to a ghost. After he came out the first time to haunt the household, I clicked on him and got no option for sending him to the netherworld.
So I decided to see what happened if I used cheats. I enabled testing cheats, and shift-clicked on him. I had the option to trigger age transition, and I used it. I immediately got a popup with the following message:
The ghost of Timothy Su has finally lost his grip on the mortal realm. He may leave the Netherworld occasionally to visit, but cannot be restored.
I am assuming this is the message that you would receive if you had clicked normally on the ghost and had the option to send to it the netherworld. So I am guessing (hoping) that the game is going through the normal process, even though a cheat was used.
What think you? Is this safe?
If this is safe, then is it also safe to throw away Timothy Su's gravestone/urn?
Another question: When I went to the graveyard in Lunar Lakes, three ghosts were out at night. I used the cheat on Bella Goth with no problem, etc. Do the other gravestones have ghosts attached? They were able to be moved, in the daytime, when the three gravestones that ended up having ghosts at night said they could not be moved because they were in use, even during the daytime. So, if I have successfully sent the three active ghosts to the netherworld, can I safely delete the whole graveyard lot, despite the other gravestones?
