Sims 4 suggestions

@GingerS88 Welcome!

I miss the colour wheel too but I highly doubt we'll see that now in Sims 4. I think we'll see a version of it in Sims 5 though.

Spiral staircases are a regularly requested feature and I think it's possibility. I hope so anyway!

Many of us would love to see cars and vehicles. It's been explained in the past that the lack of an open world is the problem. Personally I'd just like some more to put on the drive! But there are some decorative vehicles in debug which I'm going to take a look at. Since I haven't used the debug cheat yet I suggest doing a quick online search for the instructions if you want to use it. Right now I usually take a model vehicle and enlarge it by x8 to display it on a drive.

On the after school activities, you can create your own if you have Get Together. You just need to create a club and start the club gatherings at any time. I have one in my game that does after school beach cleanup and shell collecting. It's called The Turtles 🐢 lol. I also have a science park where groups can gather to do scientific things, use the rocket ship and the observatory or microscope for example. That's possible just using some base game features.

Thank you for your reply. I didn’t know that I could make my own groups on parenthood for children. I will have to figure that one out! ^_^

I heard that they were going to make a sims 5 but there is so much that can still be done on the sims 4. I hope that they continue to improve this game set up. With all the possible expansions and updates they could keep this game going for awhile longer. 

Thank you for your debugging idea. I have seen that on YouTube, I guess I am just behind on the whole cheating/debug. I rarely cheat, I try to keep the game as it designed for. Gives it a bit more of a challenge. I miss some of the old things in the past sims, teaching a teen to drive, driving the motorcycle that sort of thing. I don’t mind the loading screens, it allows for better graphics and details that adds to the experience of the game. I have been playing since the first sims game and I guess I am bit of a dinosaur to all the things that you can do in the sims 4. I spend what extra time I have YouTubing “how to” things lol. 

I see a lot of gamers using content they have created to add to the stories of their sims. I think that’s just fantastic! I wish that EA would find a way to use that content, maybe “you create it, we buy and share it” sort of thing. In the past I have downloaded what I thought was safe content and I ended up losing 2 computers. I no longer download content that EA has not created.  (And if there is already something like this, please remember I’m a dinosaur when it comes to games lol)  

Thank you again for answering my inquires and welcoming me. ^_^
