I don't have the eating problem, or not going to pee ones, but I know I have gigantic Mods folder to thank for that :)

I had a sim that kept swimming in winter and nearly freeze to death, I'd get them to go inside, just for them to head straight for the pool again. After doing the same routine 5 times in a row, I let them have their way and they froze.

Build an indoor pool and put a thermostat in it.

That story has to fall under the heading: You Give Them Everything …

Cloud gazing during a thunderstorm seems to be a favorite choice for some of mine. But I lock the doors so they can't get out. :lol:

It's been a lot more micro-managing but a lot less eye twitching since I turned off their autonomy. Also don't trust the auto-resolve that's suppose to happen when you click on the needs, so often they'd they'd do something like cook a meal then just leave it sitting on the counter. And that I can't really put more than a couple of actions into the queue at a time because they're likely to just dump the whole thing isn't quite eye twitch inducing, but it's definitely getting frustrating.

Yes, they have been real dumb, like taking naps instead of sleeping even though sleep is what they needed. I dont know if they are still that idiotic after the latest patch because i have been cheating their needs and i dont trust them to take care of themselves anymore haha!

My last household was obsessed with sun lounging and gardening during thunderstorms. I was seriously worried for them.

When my corrupt cop Sim gets to the police station, the first thing he sets out to do is "browse the internet"

All the time. Especially the guys. So much for the claim of 'smarter sims'.

does anyone ever feel like they have the stupidest sim?! I do Like when mine go to work all he or she want to do when I tell them to do their job is either play on their phone or read or if there hungry they'll make food but won't eat it then complain about being hungry are anyone elses as stupid as mine? :D :p

I love autonomy and would honestly love to see more in the game. However, I want "smart autonomy" If they are hungry I want them to make something to eat and eat it afterwards. If they are tired I want them to go to bed. I want them to go to work or school on their own. I want them to take a shower and pee on their own. I think we should be able to train our sims. I think etiquette should be a skill. Yes, I've had my share of both stupid and rude sims.
