    Good Morning 😄wow you have great ideas 💡 that would be so fun if we could go to amusement parks zoos maybe even water parks the mall. Glad they have ice skating maybe even surfing bike riding road trips like your driving with the sim instead of them just disappearing and appearing. But maybe I'm just getting too excited 🤭thank you sooooo much for the breakdown that helped me better understand. For the cooking good point I buy a book shelf trying to get my Sim to read cookbooks. Do you ever get a glitch when a sim waves that you and tells you there's something in the way but when you look there's nothing in the way my sim did this a few times when I was trying to cook certain meals. For the same complaining I'm talking about when you tell your sim like go to the bathroom go eat go take a shower then they get angry and say they feel like someone is controlling their lives then they go outside and kick the trash can it's so funny because I make them pick the trash can up afterwards lol. It would be nice to see them a little bit more independent it's like they complain that they're not independent but they're so dependent on us. For the green bar yeah that's weird I don't know why my green bars go down so fast like I literally let my sim go to the bathroom and like 10 minutes later they have to go again it just kind of takes away the fun out of playing because you're constantly like just trying to make them go to the bathroom or take care of themselves instead of just like going out not having to go back home so soon. 🤗

@sp44ow3hh2wk 

I have around 200 Sims I think. Some of my creations are on this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Feedback/Share-Your-Newest-The-Sims-4-Creations-Here/m-p/11511696#M61947

There are all kinds of different amazing creations from other players too that you might be interested in. Both Sims and Builds. Some players have added theirs to the Gallery too and they are awesome. Look out for a building on there that looks like a cat if you have cat's and dogs!

I usually start out with a big family of different generations and split them into different households to play them individually. I add different relatives in Manage Households later on if I want to keep that family going. So my favourite family is the Soldado family who started with elder parents with 2 adult and 1 teen kids and an adult sister and a best friend for their older daughter whose surname is Reyna. The older daughter now has her own household with a husband and 3 kids, the sister has hers with husband and 4 kids, the teen is at University and the son married his sister's best friend and they have a household. I add in laws for the spouses and then create households for them too. So I end up with a network of family members across worlds. I've done similar for a few other families too. The Soldado, Marquetta, da Silva and Soto families are all related and span 5 different worlds and I've lost count of the number of households.

I'm going to DM a tip to you that I've figured out to help your Sims while they keep losing health. I'll not add it here because it's my own cheat I've designed for console and it looks a bit daft but it does work.

I'm not able to play my game at the moment because of crashing that got a lot worse since the HSY patch many weeks ago and I also don't want my complex family networks to be damaged by the autonomous mean interactions bug. So once these are fixed I can play again. I usually play it every day and have done since Sims 1 so I'm missing it a lot. I've got other games but nothing beats the Sims for me.

    @sp44ow3hh2wk Yes the game sets a recommendation for the number of Sims you have but you can also move Sims you've created into Other Households. They become townies after that but they keep their relationships. You can still go back to them later if you have moved them into Other Households, it just frees up space. I usually keep under 150 Sims in my Households. I regularly go through Other Households and delete random townies regularly to keep that number at around 70-100 as the game can automatically cull Sims from Other Households. I keep mine at the top by regularly editing them to keep them safe. I find that the game lags a little if Other Households and My Households are too packed with Sims.
    I usually play a household for a week or two depending on what they do. For a Sim with a business I might play them for longer, especially if they are an explorer/collector.
    My favourite Sim is an explorer named Anais Dembele. She is a scientist, a space explorer and she completed the Strangerville mystery so she's a folklore hero too lol. She's collected every single collectable in the game from scuba diving in Sulani, to going to space and exploring Sixam, she's also completed Jungle Adventure and collected all of the treasure. Jungle Adventure is awesome if you wanted a challenge to add to your game. These are my favourite kind of Sims. I like the ones that just pack a tent and a portable camp fire and go anywhere. I usually then sell the collectables in a retail lot so my other Sims can purchase them.
