Premade Sims doing service roles.
Hi guys! (I had this issue a few years ago and made a thread but I can't find it now since we made the switch to the new forums.) I started a new save, and now my game is not generating random ...
Hello, I wrote about a topic related to what you said before. Before I add the link, I will briefly summarize the information I know here.
- The game will pick the premade sims and existing sims to do NPC jobs only if you have EP06 Get Famous.
- And the game only picks the sim who is unplayed. Sim households that were tagged as played (ex. played once) won't be picked to the NPC until you make them "unplayed"
I have written the details of the NPC assignment with EP06 here.
NPC role assign rule with/without EP06 "Get Famous" | EA Forums - 4960369
My solution for avoiding the game picking existing sims without the ability to choose who does what is...
- Disable EP06 Get Famous
- You can find how to do it here if you want https://jamesturner.yt/disablepacks
- Be aware that you can only do that in the new save. Don't do this to the saved file that already has EP06.
- Play the household that you don't want them to be NPC once.
- Just play the live mode of that household and exit. They won't be picked until you untick the "Played" icon in the household menu.
- This method is also useful to get rid of them from the list of available restaurant/retail/vet employees.
***Just moving household to "My household" doesn't stop that auto-assigned. They have to be played.
