Re: High School Years: Uncouple "Sneak Out" from Openable Window

@DizzyDee-K I get my teens to sneak out of the door whilst the parents are asleep. It don't know if that counts for sneaking out in Sims 4 like it did in Sims 3, but they are breaking curfew if it's set on the right bulletin board. I have Wants and Fears turned off because mine wasn't working properly.

The window didn't match my houses so that's why I do it this way. It might be easier to have this method count as sneaking out if it already doesn't, rather than have the window be the only acceptable method.

It was a bit more fun in Sims 3 doing this, since the dramatic music would start playing and the teen would be picked up by the cops.

    @simsplayer818   Yes!  It would be great if the team would add a "sneak out" option for when the parents are distracted (they've gone to bed, they're watching TV, etc.) instead of only getting the option from the window.

    EDIT: Something else I just thought about, regarding something you mentioned, is the fact that we only have one window option that really does not lend itself to multiple styles.  So, adding a few different styles would also be a welcome addition. :-)

    @JonaO703 It was such a fun challenge on Sims 3, simply breaking curfew several times and being escorted home by police for one of the game achievements. It was slightly different on Console and PC. But I wish Sims 4 had done it the same way, to just stay out and get in trouble.
    They could just link it to the curfew instead of a window, but leave the window just as a fun novelty thing. I must try that window sometime.
    Ironic that the teen Sim who's sneaks out now in my game is a Police Detective's daughter and he has no idea she's on the Pier all night. She even takes photos to prove it and puts them on his office wall. He thinks she's an angel 😇.

    I liked how it worked in Sims 3 just sneak out the door and maybe get caught. Very simple. The window is a bit bothersome.
