New infant update rant
Hi all! I thought I'd share my thoughts on the patch and it's gonna be a fairly emotional rant, so if you don't like this, just move along please! 🙂 First things first, I've been playing with these...

@PipMenaceYeah, your math is better than mine :D. Recalculated, when the kid grows up a parent will still have 17 days left in the adulthood stage but the rest of the argument is still valid. Cause we're still assuming a sim will have a baby early in the young adulthood stage. And there goes college again, a job and yada yada
Edit: so annoying to do this every time haha Again, I'd be so happy to have an age slide like in ts3.
@pingvinskinVery true! Not as tight a schedule as feared, but still not great. And we’re back to cheating - sort of - by turning aging off during college. I thought that didn’t play nicely with rotational play anyway. Have you actually managed to leave a Sim mid semester, play another household, and then come back to them not failing?
I’ve been wishing for ages they’d extend elders. I want to play with them but they just die too fast. 😞
Without them failing no, not really :D. If I leave, they drop almost an entire grade but I'm fine with that cause not everyone gets to be on top of the class and get straight A's irl too. I'm still thinking how to make this work better though.
What I found kind of helping is to move in everybody, who is ready for college, in the same household in a dorm. It doesn't help with the grades but at least I have all of the students there at the same time and it's easier to manage them compared to several households of students.
@PipMenaceI have my elders immortal via the occults, usually magic (only immunity to aging though, full immortality can be done via werewolves too, vampires are the best option though, can't die in most conventional ways* with an easy out for when you want rid of them) and I play with aging on, very risky, I know.
My elder has been around for around 18 generations or more, I did mess up the family tree a bit, more than once, too.
okay it might just be a family square thinking about it. Maybe a spiral, like a lineage spiral, that's a cool name actually.
