Freezing to Death

oh god this is unrelated to you guys’ replies but this reminds me of a time went to an outdoor ice skating rink and nine townies died. i still have their graves and annoyingly cant get rid if them.

It's fall in one of my saves, and today both Katrina Caliente and L. Faba froze to death in my sims' neighborhood because they were out jogging. They really should tune the exercise outfit category for weather resistance... -_-;

...Also, quit having townies jog so much. It's not like they're persistence hunting an antelope... *eyeroll*

That issue SHOULD have been fixed. I don't have an issue with it, but I also run MCCC. Not that I have seen anything in the documentation for that mod about stopping joggers from freezing to death... All I know is that no joggers froze to death when my Sims lived on Windenburg Island and that place is so stupidly full with joggers sometimes... even when freezing. Nor do they freeze to death when playing basketball or jogging around gyms.

Yeah, I also use MCCC, but I still got the popsimcles. I'm playing that save in Newcrest. I really, really don't get the random joggers, though. I mean, Newcrest in that save only has my sims' house in it...and everyone shows up and jogs there. WHY DOES EVERYONE IN THIS GAME JOG?!! It's so weird...

The neighbourhood joggers actually got a hidden buff attached that makes them immune to temperature (same with npcs that eat at restaurants).

@3cheersforkilljoys: If you're into mods, you can use my destroyobjectcheat mod (Misc mods). Then you can delete the graves by shift clicking on them.

That's what I thought. The issue is fixed according patch notes a long time ago.

That's weird, then, because joggers are dropping like flies in my game. It's fully updated and everything. Maybe it's a bad interaction with one of my mods? Or maybe it's happening when they stop moving to go socialize (as NPC sims love doing...in fact, one of my dead joggers last night was a guy who stopped to talk to a bunch of sims by a leaf pile...).

Still, what's up with the jogging? I mean, even late at night, they're up and down the block, running like the police are after them. I know one of the things they did with TS4 was trying to promote a more active, healthy lifestyle, but...they went too far with the random NPC joggers.

Just give your sim the iceproof trait.

This is STILL happening in my game! It's so annoying... probably 2-3 die every day during the winter. Some days I've had like 5 or more die. They're all in active wear.

Yeah this is still happening. It had been a long time since I had it happen to me because I have a mod to fix it. My hubby logged into his game after a long time to check out some other mods I picked up and two kids died at the hospital..LOL I had to download the autochange into cold weather clothing mod for him. Let's just say he logged out and hasn't logged back in since.

O.K., I can confirm with 100% certainty why the random joggers keep freezing. Every time I find a dying jogger, they're still in their workout clothes, but they're doing something other than jogging, like talking to another sim or sitting on a bench or waiting on line at a snack kiosk. So, the joggers are dying because they stop jogging, the anti-freeze buff wears off, they don't automatically change to their cold weather clothes after they've stopped jogging, and they freeze to death from that.

Yeah...The devs need to fix that little hiccup...

The only good thing that's come of it is that in one of my saves, Mortimer Goth froze to death and MCCC hooked Bella up with Caleb Vatore. O.K., go girl...
