Roommates?
So, I bought a few packs to try and spice up this game. I bought City Living, Discover University, and Parenthood. I'll be honest, the main thing I was looking forward to was the roommate system since I tend to play one or two sim households. I figured having an NPC would be nice for company for my sims without too much hassle. Anyway, since I bought and installed these games I have not been able to get a roommate, at all. The option isn't grayed out or anything, I'm able to place an advertisement' I've done so on phone and computer. I know I have enough beds (I always add at least two beds since I've been reading that you need to have a bed for every active person in the house, then one for the roommates; I've been doing a LOT of research to try to find an answer to this problem, lol). However, I can wait for days and days and no roommate shows up. The first sim I made to try this feature out went through college, graduated, got a job, and got to the top of the career and never once did a roommate show up in that whole time. I figured it was because she lived in an apartment. I moved her out and into a house, still nothing. She became an adult and full adult life, no roommate showed up. I aged her back down, she went through being an adult again, and no roommate. I figured maybe it was her, so I tried a new sim. Same thing; no roommates show up. I'll, sometimes, get random people who show up but there is no "potential roommate" on their name. My sims greet them and they come in, nothing changes. I don't use mods, so I don't think it's that. I've tried apartments and houses; none of my sims have lived in a dorm yet. I've just tried everything I could think of. Is there any other thing I might be overlooking? Like I said, the main reason I bought these expansions was because I really wanted to play around with roommates, but I can't so it does put quite the damper on playing the game.
