Illness cures not working
My Sim is sick and I purchased medicine off the computer but nothing happened after she drank it. No cure, no effect. I bought a second medicine and same thing. I tried drinking green tea and orange ...
@Psychotps, Like you I don't have too many tea makers in my game for the same reason -- they use it all the time , leave the mugs all over the house, and then have to pee all day long! 😞 So, I didn't even know about the green tea curing illness in the game until I was watching a YouTuber's videos on the 100 Baby Challenge. She had them use the green tea all the time. (The YouTuber was British, so I can see why she preferred the tea over the orange juice. 😉 ) At least with orange juice they usually only get it when you direct them to drink it, and it doesn't cost anything, so that is what I usually have my poorer Sims do to fight illness. But for most others, I just buy the medicine since they always seem to get ill when I don't have time to give them a nap. 😉
Well, I knew about the tea but having the tea maker was too much of a hassle, didn't know about OJ though. I'll have to try that.
Can't hurt! 😇
Of course, more than likely the OJ will cost a little $. What I'll likely do is use the Nap first. If they're still sick after that, use the OJ. If THAT doesn't work, the medicine. OJ is likely cheaper than medication.
@Psychotps, I never noticed if OJ cost any money for my Sims or not. 🤔 If it does it is just a few Simoleons, so I ignore it. It is a lot cheaper than the medicine. To tell you the truth, since all my illnesses are cured with (at the most) the 3rd try to cure them, save the money and just have them drink OJ for the 3rd try, or else take another nap! (Now if for some reason you ever get an illness that isn't cured in 3 tries, I would then try the medicine! But I doubt that will ever happen! 😉
