An idea for future updates (maybe?) - Changing your Sims height

Hi!

I've been playing Sims for a good amount of years and I'd like to share an idea that i had in mind for so long...

The idea is to be able to change your height whether your a teen, young adult, adult or elder. Main reason for this idea is because I am 4"11 and I feel that whenever I create my own sim, it doesn't feel like ME because the sim is taller than what I am in reality. It can also bring funny action and emotion opportunities such as some Sims might find you "cute" or thought you were a kid, and your Sim can either to react with frustration and takes it as a compliment (I would know however i always find it funny people reacting to my height). Same with a much taller Sim. Sims can react to how tall your sim is but maybe be intimidated by your Sim's height which can either make your Sim offended or find it funny.

Hopefully this will be possible in future The Sim games 🙂

    Unfortunately, I think “it messes with the animations” is exactly why EA hasn’t done it - and why teens are the same height as adults (to use the same animation) and one reason why a “pre-teen” lifestage is unlikely (would need to re-animate a ton of interactions).

    But yeah, it would be fun to see a variety of heights in game if they could find a way to make a sort of responsive animation rather than setting it to a specific height. No idea if that’s actually possible; if it is, no one’s figured it out yet.
