[NOT BUG] Sim died while not playing with her family how do I bring her back?

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
I want to talk about something you don't mention above: My Sim died while I was playing with another family and I want to bring them back to continue playing with them.
How accessible is the current experience? Annoying, but OK
Summarize what in the product is difficult to use. Nothing
How is this making it more difficult? It hurts emotionally
How can we reproduce this experience? Probably but I doubt you'd want to

I was playing with a family in the sims and I had turned off the aging while I played with them. I recently made a 2nd family and while I was playing with them, the mother in my other family died and I did not want that to happen. Is there a way I can bring her back when I play with her original family?

    It hurts emotionally? lol

    Did you find the urn or grave stone?  if so then play the family for a little bit and the ghost of the sim you are currently mourning should come to visit one sim night soon. You can invite them to join your household. making ambrosia is one way to bring a ghost back to their corporeal form. If memory serves someone needs level 10 cooking skills to make it plus a death flower.

    there are probably other avenues so this is just one idea. I did this once myself. While playing a one sim family, I watched a vampire from a different family just stand out in the sun until they burned to a crisp.

    🙄

    Edit: Lvl 10 gourmet cooking skill, to be more accurate...

  • @pixeldey If the ghost is there, and you don't mind using mods, just use MCCC to remove the "Death by xxxxxx" trait. They'll be human again.
  • And to avoid this in the future:

    Go into options -> gameplay, and disable auto aging sims/auto aging unplayed households.

    good luck
