ROOMMATES AND PETS/NOT ENOUGH AVAILABLE BEDS
So I just got University and I'd like a roommate. I have a 2 bedroom house with a double bed in each room (2 double beds for the whole house). I currently have 1 sim and 2 cats. I go to advertise for a roommate and the game says I don't have enough beds... so I was trying to figure it out, I clearly have enough beds. I put down 3 single beds and 1 double bed and I could then get the roommate. SO! The only thing I could think of is the cats. Do cats count as "needing" a bed slot?!? Lol. Because once I had 4 beds down I could advertise for the roommate which would have been the 4th sim slot in the household. Am I missing something? Or do I just need to have a bunch of random beds in the house to have a roommate if I have pets?
@evanboulet I just downloaded Discover University yesterday and I am getting ready to play around with this new roommate system. It must be going by how many total household members you have, pets included. What happens if you try to delete two of the beds after you get a roommate?
Oh btw, maybe another thing you could try is to make a hidden basement (no stairs) under your house and put two cheapy beds in there & see if your Sim and the roommate are happy with the other two beds. At least the visible part of your house will look the same and the cats are going to sleep wherever the heck they want anyway! xD
