Just a few things I noticed...Sims standing in the rain even with free will on until they are soaked.. instead of going insideKids can't change the thermostatNo permanent setting on the thermostat and we keep having to change it (ugh). Couldn't find a way to see what the temperature is inside either?Couldn't find the 'holiday decorations' category in buy modeUmbrellas don't show in Sims inventory so you have no way to know if that Sim picked one up yet or notI haven't seen my Sims autonomously play on the swingset yet :(Also my Sims seem to forget what bed is theirs and keep going to sleep in a random one...

Also... only two costumes for kids? Really?

Also... the swing isn't fun, apparently...

Some simmers may want to have more time with their Sims and play on long lifespan, but at the same time they want more dynamic enviroment so that means shorter seasons for them.

Things that could be improved about seasons

@Francl27 Personally for me, I'm really glad that they've brought the swings back to the game. I Remember the things that they said of why we still don't have swings in the game. They simply answered that swings will be a really complicated object in the game with many hard animations and that the only way that we can get them is by buying it.

And now we're getting it in Seasons!!! Rejoice, Rejoice, . And I'm really happy about it. Anyways, I still respect your opinion though.

Hm the umbrella thing I agree with. I wish they were an item in the inventory.
The sims not running inside maybe it depends how hard its raining, my sim went to the romance festival and everyone ran in a small cafe I had beside it even the vendors. Had to finish the date with unconformable sims in the cafe lol.

I love the swing! It's just that my kid Sim played on it, and her fun decreased, lol.
