How do you deal with Neighbourhood Stories?
This feature is frustrating for me. I want my game to have story progression because I can't manage going into every single household in the game and create storylines for each sim and make them marr...

I really like the idea of Neighborhood Stories but wished that it was a little more finetuned and that there was finally an option that lets townies start relationships, marry and move together.
I deactivated adoption of children, because there are way to many. And I made a mod that lets homeless townies have children and die, too, because per default they are only eligible if they live in a house (but I limited the pregnancies based on household size, otherwise it was really extreme, lol).
I think the excessive pregnancies and adoptions might be due to some settings combination that does not work so well. Like I said, pregnancies and adoptions are only available for Sims that live in a house (without mods). And if you allow them to move out they will eventually do that when the household becomes too big (which leads to them stopping to get pregnant or adopt). But if you disable moving out there is no other limit that makes them stop (except the household size of course, but that is still extreme).
@kadoracsims While modding I learned that the Accidental Deaths feature is tied to the in game culling, so it might be possible that you changed some settings regarding culling which leads to the Sims not dying. I noticed in my saves that it takes a while until the first Sims die by Accidental Death (even with nothing changed about the max number of Sims).
