I wish there was an option on houses apartments etc in build mode or live mode to select the house apartment as NOT Available. so other sims cant move in unless the player unselects it. I started a brand new game and moved my sim into Willow creek. deleted all sims I mean all sims. within minutes of playing my sim, brand new sims appeared and all the houses were full. I want him to live in all my neighbourhoods but I don't want my game logged down with tons of sims that I wont be playing. I kept four houses in each neighbourhood and bulldozed the rest. It would have been easier with a toggle to Not Available or IsAvailable. What about you, what little thing would you wish for.

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.

Something that seems like it would be a "simple" thing to add to the game is the ability to turn individual packs on and off within the options menu. Just because I bought it, does not mean I want it on at all times, taking up space and clogging up my gameplay. Besides, there are times when you're playing a household that you really just wish certain packs WEREN'T on.

I'd really like my sims to be able to do basic things in the low autonomy mode, like using the toilet or make a meal when their starving or talk to increase their social needs. Or else, I would like to have fewer spontaneous behaviours in the high autonomy mode since these behaviours rarely reflect the sims character.

I'd also like Sims not to walk away from a kitchen sink to wash up in a bathroom on a different floor.

Finally, I'd like my sims to sleep through the night and wake at set times, regardless of the comfort of their beds.

Some of those problems have plagued Sims 4 for some time now like going to the bathroom to wash dishes when they are right by the kitchen sink. As shown EA/Maxis do not tweak the AI system as often as they should. Some of the problems that happens in Sims 4 existed in older versions as well.

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

You can teach them nursery rhymes it's one of the options but i think it might be just 1 nursery rhyme but you can still do it.
