Re: [FIXED] NPC Households have same structure/name

What also bothers me a lot is the issue with the same name. In a recent file I've had four townies with the exact same first and last name, which was quite an issue because I was trying to find out one of those Sims' ID in order to fix the "can't marry sim because game think's he works for me"-bug. 

And this might be too language version specific but I am currently playing with a german language version and the names from which the game randomized townies sim names are rather limited in number, which you can already see in cas. I think it might be time to add a few. Especially Mertens and Kreitz is a very popular family name. In a recent file I had five Mertens and six Kreitz families with a total of around ten sims for each of those names.

    I can confirm that this is still a problem in the latest patch. I just started a test file in San Myshuno, and the very first townie, the landlord, was a firetruck red-haired Sim with a Japanese name and a CL shirt and shoes. Her party outfit, of course, had Vampires clothing. Here she is, Erika Suzuki:

    Update: Two MORE townies following this formula that immediately spawned. Meet Masami Ikeda and Nobuya Yamaguchi. One blonde, one red-haired. Notice how Masami is wearing the exact same top and shoes (albeit in a different color) as the landlord. Nobuya is wearing CL shoes as well.
