So, I just discovered that having Sims die from overheating is very easy to do...whether you intend to or not.
I started my game in summer. All was going great until I got to my 2nd lot, which has a toddler on it, and hosted a toddler play date at a park...
Because the play dates are considered "parties", most of the toddlers and their parents showed up in their party wear rather than their "hot" outfits even though there was a heat wave. Some auto changed after a few minutes, but not everyone. I put down kiddie pools and sprinklers...but it wasn't enough.
Just a couple hours in, the camera zoomed in on one of the moms and I heard the ominous death music. Then, while I'm trying to have my active parent navigate through the circle of crying Sims to plead, I notice there's a 2nd Sim on the ground next to her. (I didn't even see her fall.) I managed to plead for one of them, but then a 3rd Sim started to drop. (I'm pretty sure this broke Grimmy's brain because he just stopped moving at that point.)
I ended up going to the main menu without saving, but lesson learned. Cancel play group during a heat wave.
