Quick Questions

Q1: Trying to put a Mannequin on a Gym Lot, just for sort of Body building statues kind of thing. But none of the mannequins are interactable, even in Cheat Mode I can't edit what they wear. Is this normal behavior?

Q2: Do robbers actually come? I have yet to see a robber in months even once.

Q3: Is there a way to stop or slowdown alien obductions? While I may not see a robber i see an alien abduction 1 - 2 times a week.

Q4: What are the weight loss activities besides Treadmill and Jogging?   Yoga? Basketball? Swimming? Do those count? Anymore?

Q5: In Life and Death DLC ( don't own it ) What happens if a mage dies? Does the ghost still have mage powers? Can they be reborn as a mage with same powers? What about university  degrees?

Q6: I am noticing no fires or any sort of major "negative" events like before. At worst my equipment breaking is there some sort of change where severe bad things happen less?

 

Thanks for the replies and help in advance

    The_Suit05​ I'll give you what answers I can.

    Mannequins:  Idk.  Never tried that.  But if you can't do what you're trying to do, the devs never thought of it either or didn't want it happening.

    Burglars:  Yep, Robin Banks shows up on occasion.  Not often though on any particular lot.  Even in the daytime with sims up and about on the lot.

    Alien Abductions:  No, but if you are a mod user, MCCC will do it.

    Weight Loss:  There are lots of weight loss methods.  Not all count for the Bodybuilder aspiration milestone though.  In addition to what you mentioned, there is weight machine, lap swimming (also works for child scouting fitness badge), stationary bike, hand weights, rock wall climbing, and sparring posts, Most of those are from objects included in dlc.

    Mages/spellcasters:  I assume you are talking about playable spellcasters as the RoM Mages lose their special role if you make them playable.  Spellcaster sims keep their spellcasting ability as a ghost if you make them a playable ghost either temporarily or after they die.  Idk what happens if you send the sim through rebirth though.  Probably will lose the abilities but idk for sure as I've never done it.  Same with university degrees.

    Objects breaking:  No change afaik with objects breaking.  Although it happening is tied to how much the objects are used, lot traits, upgrades, sims that deliberately break things, etc.  I have seen no difference with breakage in my game.  There are mods to deal with it, so things never break and/or upgrade everything on the lot automatically if you are a mod user.

    Fires, etc.  No change in frequency that I've seen.  They depend on what you've got sims doing for the most part.  

    Hope this helps.
