Re: Sims dancing at gym all the time
@aodoherty Often when I am playing a household living in a San Myshuno apartment, my Sim will cook a meal and a neighbor will come over, knock on the door, and say something like "Hey something smells good here. What are you cooking? I'm hungry, can I come in and get something to eat?". I forget the exact wording, but if you invite them in they will autonomously grab a meal from the counter or some leftovers from the refrigerator. In one save my Sim was living in a penthouse apartment so she didn't really have any neighbors but Zoe would show up and do the same thing. Other times she would say she was bored and asked if she could hang out for a while. Often she would just walk in without even bothering to knock at all! She didn't have a key to the apartment she just walked right in! I'm pretty sure this last one is from the Goofball trait. I really like Zoe so this never bothered me at all-- I always thought it was funny xD
All of this happens fairly regularly in my game if I have a household living in a San Myshuno apartment (I haven't yet tested any of this in the Evergreen Harbor apartments). There one more way I can do this in my game but it involves using a mod:
The one I use is Little Ms Sam's "Choose who you Call to Meal" mod. With this mod my Sim can invite specific Sims to "grab a plate" or share any meal my Sim has prepared. I can still use the standard "Call to Meal" option and my Sim and all guests will grab a plate and eat. If my Sim is not hungry but I want to invite a guest to grab a plate there is also an option to do that. If I want to invite some Sims to grab a plate but not all Sims on the lot, then I can specifically choose which Sims I wish to invite. It's a pretty cool mod an it works very well with another Little Ms Sam mod called "No Auto Food Grab after Cooking". I can't post a link on here but Little Ms Sam's web-page is pretty easy to find through an Internet search.
