I always have autonomy on, whether I'm playing a household of 1 Sim or 8 Sims. I find the game boring with autonomy off. Part of what makes the Sims games fun for me is just watching my Sims to see what they get up to on their own, sometimes I am pleasantly surprised at the stuff that happens.
I'm not control-freaky with my Sims, and don't feel the need to micromanage every little thing they do. If I need one to do something specific of course I will control them, but what they do when I'm focusing on another Sim doesn't matter to me really. You're correct of course that some autonomous actions are very annoying, and I use mods to disable some of the worst offenders (mainly hugging, getting water from the sink, and forum trolling) but overall I don't find my Sims to be too irritating, most of the time. I have an insane Sim that I need to watch carefully because if left alone he will argue with and insult his family all day, lol....but I made the character crazy for a reason so I just have to deal with that behavior.
There's a mod that disables autonomous hugging??? Where can I find it?!
@Terra It can found in this set http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=571552
You must be a registered Mod The Sims member to download it. Works with the latest patch for me. :)
That mod and MC Command Center are my two mods that I refuse to play without. I always avoid patching until I know they are working with the patch or get updated. The hugging drives me bonkers, I find that they will choose that action like 75% of the time. With the mod, the variety of autonomous socials I see them choose is a lot better.
