@SweetieWright_84 You're very welcome! Z (daughter) is definitely playing along with me on the save that takes place in your Simworld. We're planning to try something different this time: our main character is going to be a university student.

We really wanted to bring your student Sims who live at Foxbury and UBrite over to our game--they're all very interesting, with a fun set of interests, hobbies, majors, and traits. But it doesn't look like we can move them directly into university housing, even though the game recognizes them as students. For example, we saved the Tidal Tower Roommates to my Gallery. When we went to place them into our game, we couldn't move them into Tidal Tower, even though our game recognized both of them as Foxbury students.

We would also like to figure out a good way to fill the other spots in campus housing with our own young adult Sims, without having to go through the process of getting them all accepted to a university. We'd rather have them in our game than a bunch of randomly generated NPC students. We think we might have to edit the game-generated roomies to match our creations.

We also think your Henford-on-Bagley residents are especially delightful, so we duplicated your HoB world for our own game.

The university students thing, I think, is by design. The game doesn't recognize them as living in the university housing when moved in from the Gallery/Library. I'm playing with the premades, and the three university students had to move into another off-campus house. It's not something I did but I think the game does it on its own. If you play those households, when it's time to enroll for a new term, you can have them live in the university housing. This is one of my gripes about Discover University.

In order to fill the dorms with your sims, you will probably have to move them into a lot, enroll them in uni, evict them from their home, and mark them as unplayed.

Also you can cheat their application/enrollment process so you don't have to wait days for it to come in the mail. You can shift-click on either the mailbox or sim (can't remember off the top of my head), and find it under the University menu.

I'm glad you and Z like my HoB residents. I tried to make them fit the pack but also not have them all be farmers. I love the fox sanctuary family.

I have a lot fun making and updating the save as new packs come out. It's also nice to see that others like it as well, so thank you (and Z) for letting me know. And please feel free to share your sims' adventures in their new world. :smile:
