Re: You wanted an alien spouse? Well...

Thanks! I was unaware of the satellite, so went ahead and grabbed myself that and I see that besides having the abduction prevention thing, I can also make the whole town pee themselves or dance lol

Nice

@RavennaSanguine, I'm so happy you found the satellite and that you are enjoying using it! :eahigh_file:  I think the cheat is best for your needs as you probably wouldn't want all your households to have a Sim in the Scientist career! 🤨  But if you do have a Sim join this career, they will get to make several cool items that can be upgraded to do more functions!  🤓 (And for those who want abductions to be more likely, or just want to meet Aliens, then the satellite is also handy!)  Thanks for updating us! 🙂

Happy Simming!

lol yeah, I did the "contact aliens" option just to see what would happen and got like 7 aliens visiting my house haha

@RavennaSanguine, LOL  yeah its kind of like having an Alien party!  😃🥳:eahigh_file:  It is also a good way to get an Alien into your household with out making them in CAS, otherwise you have to look out for "Alien Night" at one of the local bars to meet Aliens easily (unless you are in the Scientist career.)  The object cloner is also a nice gadget to have around.❤️  You do have to upgrade it by either being in the Scientist career and attending work with your Sim, or by using the cheats and getting the robot 3D printer machine (I forget what it is actually called) and upgrading your satellite and object cloner from there.  You can also get a Sim ray gun which can freeze Sims and if you upgrade it you can control other Sims, transform objects and even alter the look of other Sims (I changed Nina Caliente's hair and eye color this way).😎  Also one of these tools (I forget which) can even clone your Sim!  It's not an exact clone, (mine had different hair color and some different personality traits) but it was mostly the same!  🤨

I'm glad you are enjoying your satellite! 🥳

Okay I definitely need that stuff right now lol

I have my sim in the astronaut career but this is making me want to grab the scientist career o_o (altho the house bills are like 4000 simoleans a week atm >.>)

@RavennaSanguine, are you just playing one save game at the moment, or do you have multiple saves in The Sims 4?🤔  If you are open to multiple saves, you can always create a new family, or download one from the Gallery, or play one that came with the game ... then when you want to save the game, don't click on "save" or it will overwrite your old game -- instead just click on "save as" (you can change the name of the save if you like) and now you have your old game and a new one. 🙂 Then with the new one, choose a Sim to enter the Scientist career!  In the Scientist career, you will have daily tasks to construct things using the robotic 3D printer machine I talked about in my previous post.  This is where you make satellites without using cheats, as well as the Sim ray gun and the object cloner (as well as other items); it is also where you upgrade these items.  But you start out making simpler objects.  but once you learn how to make an object cloner, you can clone rare minerals, plants, potions, or any object!  Sometimes the cloning fails and you get a block of "matter" LOL.  

Likewise, with the Sim ray gun, if you have too many apples or daisies, for example, in your inventory, you can drag the apple or daisy out into the world  and place it on the floor, and use the Sim ray gun to "transform" it.  That way an apple can become a chair, or book, or a rare mineral, etc.! 

Also, with the Scientist career, you can eventually create the Wormhole Generator that, when updated, will let you travel to the planet Sixam where you can meet a bunch of Aliens, and collect space rocks, plants, and even geodes, which you can send off to the Geology/mineralogy society to have cut to reveal their beautiful layers!  :eahigh_file:

Happy Simming! ❤️

Oh yeah, I have like 5 saves with this one particular sim of mine building different kinds of families. She has a vampire family that's spread out across the city, a tinier vampire family, a human/alien family and then this alien/vampire family lol

But yeah I'll probably jump on a new game and see what this science career is all about

@RavennaSanguine, I would love to hear your thoughts on the Scientist career, once you have played it for a bit! ❤️ Most days are similar, but some of the workdays have you focus on Alien visitors or a resource collection day.    😉

Happy Simming! 🥳

Okay, so I'm in the science career now and my sim is on her 8th or 9th eureka and something funny and tragic happened. I had her to go work, getting stuff together to make the wormhole generator, but one of the objectives for the day is to do some experimentation. But this notice comes up that says aliens have infiltrated the place and some equipment may be sabotaged (which I didn't think too much about).

So I have her do her experimentation and then I noticed a new dialogue for a "red button"

Being curious, I directed my sim to push this button, which electrocuted her! And then she died like 20 sim minutes later!

And then I was basically faced with having her spouse get a job there in order to retrieve the urn or just reload to a few days before lol

😮 LOL, the shiny, big, red button! 🤭   So tempting 👿 ... we know we shouldn't press it, but we often do anyway! 😳  It is just sitting there waiting to be pressed.  How can our Simmies resist?!?  I guess the moral of the story is don't mess with new things on the same day Aliens infiltrate your workplace! 

So, two questions: 1.) How do you like the Scientist career?  2.) Which did you end up doing, have her spouse become a scientist to retrieve her urn, or reload a prior save? 🤔
