Stop Sims calling me.
Every time a sim calls the time-scale slows to 1, and it happens so often in large (many sims) houses, it's very annoying. I'm being inundated with needy acquaintances. Can we please have an optio...
Don't think that option would work. As there isn't a missed call log or anything. So you would miss a big social feature.
To me it sounds like your computer is having a hard time with loading the big house and a phone call coming in.
I suggest playing what works better, and that would be smaller houses?
Nah, I mean it literally changes the time scale from full, down to slowest play which is annoying. Trust me, my computer is beefy. (by large houses I mean houses with lots of sims, so they have LOTS of phone calls.)
I wouldn't mind missing out on those social options when I'm doing a legacy challenge, because it interrupts what I'm doing. I don't even want a message.
Maybe a setting in game options if not on the phone? Or a mod that disables random phone calls?
I think it must be something with your setup. My PC is not that powerful and I currently play in a very large house with 7 sims. I have absolutely no slowdowns when the phone rings.
I think you misunderstand me,
I mean the actual game changes from "timescale 3" to "timescale 1" not my computer.
(like how you press 1 and it goes to timescale 1, press 3 and it goes to fast timescale 3.
I just want to know how to turn calls off.
Ah, so it's the time speed that changes. Which would be normal is you wouldn't want to miss the calls.
So you have many Sims, that all receive phone calls, which slow down the time speed (3 - 1)?
