The Sims Dad in my ancestral game save (which makes him my 7th great-grandfather) kept feeding and playing with his Cow Plant. He was spat out a few times, too. :open_mouth: I finally got fed up and replaced the house with an earlier version of it from My Library. That removed the stress I was having. LOL I've yet to have another Cow Plant.
Wow... good to know it can happen more than twice in some cases and be okay? In my games I have an 'ancestral' 'patriarch/matriarch' couple who I play in several households and I even move them ( and their kids/grandkids and spouses) around. They're very loosely based from myself and my husband (traits and looks), and they had a family that then is spread throughout many of the households.
Having said that, I guess it would be fair to say there are those sims in my game that are not 'expendable crewmen' to me. It's a deal breaker for too grave of a tragedy to happen to the 'first' family members, for me. Hahaha... and even though I have several 'potions of youth' from the rewards store and death flowers and even ambrosia in one household, (prepared like a Cub Scout) I have not ever had to use them and I have no mods or CC. Never met up with the grim reaper yet. That would rather creep me out. They're on non-aging setting (along with the communities), and I micromanage them to try to avoid tragedy. That's just my play style. Too much death in my real life of late, so I appreciate not dealing with it in a game.
Question... If I started a different game for aging, I could deal with turning on aging and all if it was a separate set of households - or maybe even just using default game households. I just haven't done it yet.
Can you turn on aging in a 'new save' game and not have it effect the others? I've considered doing one of those 'challenges' where you only control one sim in the household, with restrictions on that, but I think it would really stress me out watching them pee themselves or even die of stupidity. I don't know. Currently I am obsession about gardening, building, and developing households. Gallery prep stuff. For now...
