Fixed in Patch 1.47.49
Sims will be more discerning over who they decide is worth mourning when an NPC Sim passes away.
I had enough of this when my family wedding was destroyed by everyone getting a death notification about some random stall holder living in the jungle. Sad +3 for 2 days is over the top. I created a mod to back off the duration and intensity of the mourning for lesser relationships like friends and acquaintances.
It seems to work but I could do with it testing live and providing feedback on errors and function. If anyone would like to try it out it can be downloaded at <link removed. Links to mods are not allowed at AHQ. Please just name mods>
Edit: Sorry for linking to the mod directly. I hope this link is OK. There is a discussion on the subject on the Sims Official Forum. There is a link to the mod in that discussion .
