@Teepaichan , @simsplayer818 , and @EA_Solaire , I totally agree!🥰 If this can be done, then it should be done! I have heard that it is a lot harder to code for height (at least satisfactorily) than it is for width, something about the entire frame getting smaller, and not just shorter, which isn't that realistic. But I do not know how to code, so this is just what I've heard. Also, I have no idea how this would best be implemented. Some have suggested sliders, others have suggested a short, average, and tall setting for each age. One problem I see is that since most players want teens to be shorter than adults, I think everyone is just going to make the adults all taller or else the teens all shorter! I'm sure all this presents a challenge for outfits in CAS as well. 😔
I am also really short, not quite the size to actually fall into the washing machine, but since my machine is a top loading one, I do have to use a step stool to get all the clothes out, or else I have to use a tool like a hanger, back-scratcher, or tongs to get a stray sock out that is beyond my reach! Add to this problem the fact that I'm clumsy ... I have actually broken a rib trying to get laundry out of the washer!😣🤣 After that I bought a step stool! 😅
I always hate that my Simself is the same height in the game as everybody else. I'm sure really tall people feel the same! Really tall people and really short people have certain challenges that are usually overlooked by most people. It would be nice to have that as well, but if we can't have the funny animations, then I think most of us would settle for just having the height differences! 😎
I realize this might not be feasible in The Sims 4 at this late point, but I do really hope they add this feature in future versions of the Sims!!!🤞🥳
Community ManagerOh my goodness, I'm sorry to hear about your ribs, I hope you're feeling better now! Being short really does come with a few hazards doesn't it 😅 Honestly as a short person that top-loading washing machine is the bane of my existence!
I'm not sure how or if height adjustment could be implemented in, but as always I'm more than happy to pass the feedback along 😊
@EA_Solaire , thanks for your concern! 🥰 I'm all better since this happened about 10 years ago! 😅 My short mom has a front loading washing machine, like we have with Laundry Day Stuff, and it is much easier for her than it was when she had a top loading one. I'm sorry to hear you have had a lot of problems with being short and having a top loading washing machine as well!
I know both short and tall people can have back problems from working with standard height kitchen counters.
Thank you for passing this along! This is an overlooked area (not just in the Sims) so it is nice that you are passing this feedback along! 🙌
Height adjust is possible with sliders - as there are two mods that successfully do this. Well, four actually - the third and fourth ones just enable you to adjust neck length and shoulder height respectively. the other two allow you to actually adjust a sims full height - one using the sims feet to adjust but i think this negates the foot sliders and the other you use the bottom of the neck /Clavicle region to adjust height. This also works with another mod that gives several height presets (four, maybe five). I'm not mentioning the mods themselves as i think that may breach the rules, but perhaps the sims gurus could reach out to the modders and collaborate?
