Aging

Aging off almost always. I've turned it on for a few challenges I never completed :D .

A bit of yes and no in there.

Sometimes i set immortality to some sims just so the world doesn't get so alien the more new generations of sims that exist after the original lot are gone, it sort of loses a magical sprk about it after all the original pre-mades or mine go out the picture.

The rest i leave with a long lifespan, that all assumes they don't get hysterical and die of laughter at the humor and hijinks festival of course. :D

I play with the long life span and nobody ages up until it's their birthday on the calendar.

If I am doing a challenge or something, then I follow the rules of the challenge. I used to play with long lifespan, but now I find myself enjoying things more if I play with aging off and age sims up when I want during a natural story progression. It makes it easier to do the things I want to do. However, every now and then I'll do normal life span for an added challenge.

In most of my save files I play with Normal Lifespan because I find it the most convenient for my type of stories and gameplay.

I use an altered version of normal lifespan thanks to MCCC. Occasionally I play with aging off for a while, for story purposes. I will probably do that more now I have DU.

I live playing realistically, which means allowing aging... but I also don't have the patience to manually age up every single Sim in my game individually, so playing with aging off is a no go for me. I like to fill my worlds with families of my own, but also like to focus on only one household at a time, so that would make things very difficult and time consuming for me.

As for the length of the spans, the long lifespan is the only one that's playable for me... the short lifespan is extremely short. Normal lifespan isn't even much longer than the short one (which is disappointing), so long is the one I go with.

I constantly change my setting. I usually run on normal aging, but sometimes I turn it off, or sometimes I switch it on long, and sometimes I run on normal but I use potions of youth to revert certain sims back. This is why I often have parents and children who are the same age. :lol:

depends

I find myself switching between the different options, depending what save and household I'm playing
