Random townies are a necessity to man stalls, bars and so on.
They do not have anything to do with your game crashing. If you have a problem with that I suggest that you create a post with specifics in The Sims 4 | Forum | Technical Issues – PC | EA Answers HQ
Can you guys please add a option though? Like I understand that certain roles need to be filled but why not add the option anyway & let the game use sims that are already in your game. Us console players desperately need that option cause the game will generate so many sims for no reason even though roles like Mail Carrier, etc are already filled. So to a certain point of view the game will eventually crash due to a overload. & I'm on the xbox series s. Thank you & have a good day
Because what if those Sims die? There's no automatic story progression like in Sims 3. If those Sims die, then there's nobody to fill the spot. Your game shouldn't be crashing from overload. That sounds like a bug in itself.
It's not even the fact that if the sims die. Us consoles players still need the option because the game since day 1 has been generating those townies so much. & it's been the biggest issue of sims 4 on consoles. If the game crashes from an overload its definitely a bug with the generation of townies. Players like myself do not play with aging turned on so we should be good to have that option.
