@NennaRCit's lucky they don't pay bills when you're not playing the household. But I was getting 2 lots of bills for them in one week when playing rotationally, so I switch at the weekend before bills are due. I did a test on it recently and found that switching back to them on a weekend meant only one set of bills. But switching in the week meant double the bills.
I'm on console but I'm told there are mods that make rotational play easier for PC players. We can only use a couple of cheats too without affecting console achievements.
I also try and switch to another household after work hours or it's telling me they haven't gone to work and it was affecting their work/school performance. It was all flashing red lights on their school and career panels.
Edit: just thought of something else I do when playing rotationally. As I always start these groups of households in batches in one household before moving them on to their own. I complete the Making Millions Scenario along with the Mansion Baron and fortune aspirations. That way I can use all of those reward points. I get the Steel Bladder one first as it's essential IMO. Plus Carefree and Connections so they start the career higher up. I add Professional Slacker if I have enough points because I like to add the skill building ones too as a priority. When I've got a few households at a time I want them to learn faster and get promoted faster.
@simsplayer818 yeah bills are yet another thing that don't work when you don't play the household. It should work just like normally so that the sims lives work properly also when not actively played. To have to provide money for them with cheats to make it work to play rotationally is just not the way it should be.
