Actual Maximum Sim Count in a game?
Hi all, I guess I start this thread because I am really not sure what is the actual maximum sim count a game can have as of now? Perhaps a simguru can enlighten me? So, I set my game to Unlimited s...

Interesting question.
There is an hidden actual sim limit that counts all sims. It increases after each DLC release, so last I heard of it during Cats and Dogs time, it was somewhere over 800 Now it's definitely over 2,000...
The sim limit you see on Manage Households only counts sims you have in My Households section. These sims will not be culled if the actual limit is full. The game culls sims in Other Households section, housed or not. In addition, if a friend is about to be culled, they'll call your sim and tell them they're going off-the-grid and will be thinking about your sim as they're foraging through the forest. More about culling here.
Unlimited should really be unlimited. But the way you are telling that new townies generated immediately get culled the next day is... interesting... 385 should be far from the limit (and even I at about 1,000 sims have Other Households)... How many households do you have in Other Households section?
Hi. Thanks for the reply. From the looks of it, you have wayyyy more sims that me but yet you don't seem to have any culling issue?
I have 2 suspects (no real known cause) because there is no way to count sims in Other Households:
- A mod to add more sims in a venue could be the culprit.
- Somehow I have accidentally removed No Culling Mod from my mods folder.
I have tested 2-3 sim day and the culling seems to stop for now. I still need to observe for few more times.
Interesting...
I use no mods myself, so that's one thing...
