I Wish there was????

A "simple, little thing"? For me that means something like the ability to fit appliances under counter. The only appliance that fits under counters is the dishwasher. Everything else is standalone and I find that to be very unfortunate. Even the dishwasher doesn't fit under the counter as it did in, say, TS2 where the counters covered the sides. In TS4, I find myself trying to hide the bare sides of dishwashers in my build because they're ugly.

Another small thing: I wish that Sims didn't go out of their way to stand so far away from each other when they speak. Sims who are close together when not speaking will go out of their way to separate so that they can speak. It makes no sense. I wish that the animators had done better.

I wish sims still cuddled if they shared a bed. I like those small touches. I just recently started playing the Sims 3 and I rediscovered this.

I think the simplest thing that bugs me is nonsensical routing that can happen, especially on large lots.

You place in things like ladders and fire escapes mainly for completing the look - not because I want my Sim to leave the house, scale three stories on the outside of the building in order to go from their kitchen to their bedroom. ?

Strategically placed and subtle barriers can stop this but still gets on my nerves.

I wish that we could set lot traits, eco footprint and naps from the map view.
I had been setting a new save and it's kind of boring to have to go to build mode in every build/neighbourhood to set this stuff...

One small option I would like to have is the ability to edit the lighting colour and dimness in Build/Buy mode.

To me it’s non sensical that I can change the time of day to see what my build looks like from morning till midnight, but I‘m forced to go into live mode in order to change the actual colour of my light sources. I never understood the logic behind this.

I wish they still had burglars. I miss that.

@feetinstockings I had to do 2 things to keep Sims from moving into vacant homes in my game.
1) Go into Options and turn off the "fill empty homes" button.
2) Within MCCC, adjust a bunch of settings. There's one to stop teen Sims from moving out on their own, one to adjust the number of homeless Sims allowed, and another to stop married Sims and Sims with babies from moving into new homes.

Anyway, it works for me and I can have a bunch of vacant homes now that actually stay vacant!

The mod free way to do this is to set the number of bedrooms and bathrooms to 0 for houses you want to keep vacant. Actually learned that from MCCC’s documentation.

If we are talking about small things, I really wish you could teach toddlers nursery rhymes. That is actually adorable.

I wish sims had fears.

In build mode, I'd like the ability to go to another lot (still in build mode) without having to save and exit to main menu
