Elders that don't wanna die
How long are sims supposed to live? I've noticed that some single male elders don't wanna die in my game. Sonny Elder (Fitting last name, I know) has been with me for some generations now. 442 days!...

I have this elder sim whose age bar has been sparkling for about a sim week! I received the notification to ‘get his affairs in order’ about a sim week ago too. He doesn’t have the bodybuilder career, and his wife died from old age earlier so I can’t overexert him, I’ve tried to with other ways, and I’ve even tried to over exert him with a cheat, twice, but it never worked? I love my sim and all but I need to make some room
Do you use any mods? If you're using MCCC & flagged the sim as immortal (& forgot), that would probably do it.
I don't remember if there are any options in the game settings that could be relevant, but it might be worth checking. If you have the longest sim life spans, for example, it may take longer than usual.
Good luck! and farewell to your sparkling sim, whenever his time comes. 😉
eta: Oho! There's a thread further down about this, with an EA response, too! Apparently it can take a long time for 'em to die on long lifespan settings.
If you enjoy reading threads about this, there's still another one just a little further down. Hmmmmmmm, that's three threads on the topic; wonder if it's taking longer than usual since the patch???
