ALOT of suggestions or ideas ....

Build Mode: Shipping containers. Wood pallets. Round staircases. Log cabins. Legos. Kitchen islands that can move or even become a basement door. Attics and interactive staircase you can fold up or pull down with a string leading to it. Sliding doors. Interactive windows.

Terriform: make it simpler and easier to use this on console maybe a text box that pops up where we can set the positions and size of the mountain or hills we want........ More weather conditions like tornadoes, earthquakes or tsunamis..... 

Decorations: home theater set up or sound system. legos. interactive dog houses. Interactive trampoline or play house for kids. Ladders. Interactive ceiling fans. More LGBTQ items. Aliens!!. More ghost items (ex. EMF - Infrared cameras with night vision - EVP). War medals. purple hearts. memorabilia for their services. Ghost adventures decor.

Sim Edit: more tattoos(veteran - army - in loving memory - animals - other sims faces). More piercings (ex. dermal - tongue - cartlidge). crazy hair styles. Veteran and War outfits. Be able to make sims have one arm or leg. Wheelchairs or any other disabilities.

Sims Towns/Destinations: interactive everything!! more plots to build on. Nail salons. Movie theaters. Water parks (ex. Disneyland - Big Surf - Wet n Wild) to take a vacation too. Lego World. Roller Coasters parks. Laundry mats. Casinos. Childrens stores. Ghost tours. Homes for the homeless/bums. Veteran lodges. permanent and interactive hospitals. Doctor's/dentist office for adults and kids to be able to make appointments for on the phone. Army bases(be able to be recruited and serve).

  • Cooki3Ston3r​ there are a few things already available in some expansion packs, like log cabins. I find the best packs for building log/wood cabins are Horse Ranch, Outdoor Retreat, Werewolves, Enchanted by Nature and Adventure Awaits. It's one of my favourite ways to build.

    A home theater can be possible with Movie Hangout, Get Famous and for an outdoor experience there's the Little Campers kit that has a large screen. You can also resize base game TVs for a bigger screen. There's a cinema in Growing Together at Anchorpoint Wharf which is a rabbit hole lot. Growing Together also has a treehouse for kids and the perfect items to build a water park. There was a base game water park in the Library from years ago called Dino and Turtles Water park if it's still there. I clear my library to save space so I can't check that unfortunately. I made one in the Gallery that I called Whalebert's Water Park using the Growing Together items and quite a bit of Eco Lifestyle build content.

    There are functional ceiling fans in ceiling decorations but it requires the Seasons pack to actually affect temperatures. There is a base game one, Dizzy Palm Ceiling fan as well as some added with Island Living, Desert Luxe and Industrial Loft and I'm probably forgetting more.

    Strangerville adds a military career with collectable military medals.

    City Living adds earthquakes with the Quake Zone lot challenge.

    I'd like to see more tattoos, I've been hand painting some myself to add more variety with the paint mode from Business and Hobbies. It takes a lot of time and patience but I was bored with the same designs. I managed to tattoo my Sims eyelids under their eyes and was so proud of myself! 

    As a console player I agree it's a bit trickier to add things like hills with the landscape tool. I tend to use the softer setting or I find that it runs away a bit and I end up with things in weird sizes and craggy points sticking out of the ground. Plus, hitting the undo button can mean that the next time I load the game my terrain paint has been removed. So that's frustrating. It also works better on a 64x64 lot in my experience. I also use a lot of the move objects cheat (which can be used on console without affecting console trophies and achievements)  bb.moveobjects on to place foliage and rocks around to cover up imperfections in my hilly terrain. So that hill looks great but don't lift up those plants and see the mess underneath!
