The Sims 4 Generation AI
there is an issue that always concerned me on sims 4. ok consider this example. you play a new game before install and everything are new. so will be a good population of a kid, teens, adults, and...
@Lordewolf2 I think the only 'reproducing'/getting pregnant and having babies going on is in the households you play or have played, and only when you have them 'try for a baby'. But the game should generate/spawn new households (some of which will include kids) as your sim households die off. If you look in 'Game Options' > ' Gameplay' in each game-save you should be able to choose settings like 'max sim count', lifespans, etc. There is a good description of what the different gameplay options do at this link: https://simsvip.com/2014/08/04/the-sims-4-game-options/
You have two options:
To push forward families to have their own on your orders, singletons as well. but that level of micromanagement can be very time consuming the more you get into it. potentially you could miss out on age ups and assigning correct traits, missing births of children to name them, deaths and so on.
The other choice is a modification called MCCC, if you set it up right, it will run families in the background and allow you to focus on your own without fear of having families grow old before they had children.
As an example; i've been running MCCC with alot of the settings on, i've been focused on this... "relationship" within the family between the young adult mother, two teenage daughters and a teenage son. They are now looking after 18 babies, it is a full time job for a few hours but that isn't the worst of it; aging up 18 babies to toddlers and looking after them! To say one could be in for a world of hurt is to miss the point on how badly things are going to go wrong or how crazy it is. This is in addition to running a second household with a few kids there as well.
Sometimes you can stick your head out of the sand and look around at what is going on in other families as well, make adjustments with CAS if needed. MCCC has been liberating from some of the restrictions and it can focus on other families while you're busy.
i heard about this mccc but i think is too complicated. and i guess if developers don`t care. i only can or play a new game each time or use freerealestate and populate my game wich sims of galery.
@Lordewolf2 There is also a setting to have the game "Fill Empty Homes" in each game-saves Game Options > Gameplay settings. Just play around with the types of options and do what works best for you within your gameplay style. Happy simming! :eahigh_file:
