Re: How to just play with one sim

@Janejav, assuming you have Autonomy on (which I think is default), you can just control one Sim and leave the other Sim to their own devices.😉  They won't always make the best choices, though.  For example, they might have low Bladder, but decide to have a glass of water.🤨😃  Or they will be hungry, but instead of selecting the food your other Sim made, they will eat a quick meal of cereal from the fridge! 😕  But they will try to take care of themselves.  You can always try it out and see if this suits you. 

To check or change the Autonomy level in your game, in the upper right corner there are 3 dots -- click on them.  Then choose "Game Options" from the list.  Then from that screen on the left side choose "Gameplay".  On the Gameplay screen there will be an "Autonomy" section that should say either "Full" or "Off" on it.  Click on that to change it.  Then in the very bottom right corner click "Apply Changes".  

Finally, if this isnt' good enough for you, there might be some Mods out there that would have to do with this.  I don't know, since I don't' play with Mods (too much trouble to upkeep them for me! 😳 But many people use them.😎  Just beware that every time EA updates the game with a patch, the Mods will be outdated until the Modders update them to work with EA's new patch!  )  😉

Please update us if this helps you or not. 

Best of luck and Happy Simming! 🥳
