I don't think I would care that you can't see them teach them how to drive. I would be okay with just knowing that my adult sim is teaching them how to drive offscreen, and feel proud when they finally earn their permit or license. It would also be cool to add a different object: a driving simulator. Like a racing seat with a TV screen, basically a driving video game. But maybe that levels up their "driving skill". I would also think this skill should be a minor skill with five levels. Permit at three and license at five. Read the driver's book to get to level three or use the simulator, then you can go out in the "real world" a.k.a. Disappear off screen. My boyfriend is very upset that there's no cars. Wish sims 3 was on xbox as every time I get it on a laptop or pc through steam it always crashes after a couple hours. He simply wants to put cars in his garage. I would be okay with cars even just being a decorative object as long as it looked like a usable car and maybe we could name the cars and have that car enthusiast trait from sims 3. It's definitely not "not doable" for them to add cars. Just because it's not an open world and can never be an open world doesn't mean you can't do anything with cars at all. Give the people what they want! And next time you release a "better version" of a game, don't take out important things... Like cars!
@Squiddysquads , I also don't have a problem if my Sims drive the cars off the screen (and a loading screen follows)! I enjoyed this in The Sims 2! I also loved that we could by a "junker" car and fix it up, gaining skill, and could sell it at a profit or use it! And while there are some make-shift garage doors on some lots in the Gallery that are very creative, it would be nice to have proper garage doors besides decorative industrial looking ones!
Even though TS3 had drivable cars, If I remember correctly, when you taught a teen to drive, they just disappeared off the lot for a while and then came back in the car, much like you suggested for TS4! 😎 So even though there was an open world in that game, this particular interaction didn't utilize the open world, so I think that would be an excellent addition to TS4!
I do think a lot of people would be satisfied to have this sort of car features in TS4! Still, there are some people who would be very disappointed that the cars weren't drivable in an open world sense of the word. Still, I think TS2-style cars would be better than nothing, and would certainly help builders make more realistic contemporary houses! 🥳
In the meantime, try @jpkarlsen 's suggestion! 😃
