Hey, I was wondering why the High school expansion doesn't allow for other playable teens in your town to go to high school. I'd love for my sims to be able to meet each other in high school. Also, it would be nice if new teens spawned each time instead of the same old crew.
Ok then... I can explain it.
Let's open up my NPC making guide, High School Years pack... Ah, here!
You need to equip this trait to the teens: trait_HighSchool_Active_Class1Student
Then the teen has a chance of appearing as an NPC in the active high school.
Otherwise existing teens are pulled and put into that role. I hope that the game assigns that hidden trait when your sim attends the active high school, but I'm not sure.
So yeah, the main reason is that they don't have the required hidden trait. Cheat to equip this trait is here!
Would trait_HighSchool_Active_Class2Student also work?
Nope, such trait actually doesn't exist.
Despite it being named as trait_HighSchool_Active_Class1Student, teens with this trait can also appear as Class 2 student. So yeah, you have no control over whether they appear in Class 1 or Class 2.
Yep! Forgot about this!! 🌟
The sims team definitely needs to revisit this as an option. I should have the option to choose the classmates for the high school years pack.
it’s not fair that console players don’t have the option for that feature at all. Not having the option to select the high school teens to attend the school takes away the fun from the high school years pack.
