I agree with all of your points, with a CAW tool probably at the top of the list.
If that’s not going to happen, I’d like more Uncivilized worlds. No buildings. No roads. Just woods and maybe overgrown paths and lakes to swim in. Also:
- An option to paint the ceilings and an option to edit lighting colour and intensity in BB.
- The balance between negative personality traits and relationships needs to be fixed. Sims who hate children clearly don’t hate children when they get out of their way to cuddle them. And dear Sim while you’re at it, please stop mourning your nemesis.
- Fair treatment of occults. Indeed Merfolk should at least have their own underwater world. Adding them to a game that does not offer that kind of gameplay in any way is nothing more than a terrible tease. I’d rather not have them at all. I never really play with Merfolk because they can’t even swim in any of the oceans beyond Sulani. Not good enough.
- More power based interactions between different occults. Have them duel against each other and see who wins. Spellcaster vs vampire. Yes please. And I’ll add to that: user directed duels. Right now it’s all quite random and completely unchallenging. Also Werebeasts and other monsters and more mythical beasts in general.
- Something for kids to do. They’re bored out of their poor little heads. At least give them a bike.
I’m not done yet. But it’s a start.
