I did not know sims could scoot into a double sized bed if its against the wall.I also didn't know unemployed sims labeled themselves "stay-at-home mom" if they have a kid and you ask about their career! That's soo cute. :)What's some other little things you just found out?

For those of you wanting an old-fashioned bus stop there is one via debug in the Cottage Living collection. It's a simple wooden bench with a blue sign by it showing a white bus. Didn't see the sign at first, clicked on the bench so sim could sit a while, and got the 'travel' interaction.

The simology panel now offers two button to go directly to cas. They function differently. The go to cas button in the likes and dislikes section allows changes to likes/dislikes and appearances, basically the same as change appearance on a wardrobe. The second one in the romantic preferences section gives more freedom. It functions the same as change sim option on wardrobes.

Yep, cowboys & aliens. ? @lanlyn Me too. Before using MCCC, I was always finding out a Sims' occult this way or finding out they were married to someone.

I recently discovered that child sims can use the microwave. Lol, I have no idea how I have not found that out all these years.And today I found out there is a Talk Radio! Only because an NPC uni student switched it on LOL. How long has that been in the game?

Did you know the toilet cubicles (high school years and discover University) have a footprint that's actually 1,5 tiles wide. The green square shows two tiles wide but they only 'block' one and a half tile. This means without MOO you can place two cubicles on a space that's 3 tiles wide without weird gaps in between. You have to use F5 for quarter tile placement but no MOOEdit: added a picture to show how these can be placed without weird gaps with 3 tiles for 2 toilets.

I didn't know until last night that there's an actual animation for the smoke coming from chimneys when the fireplace is being used. I was so confused why there was a random bit of smoke on the lot until I zoomed out lol.

Wow that's actually really cool! Can the chimneys be anywhere on the roof? lol or do they have to be near a fireplace? In fact, do Chimneys still function without a fireplace? XD

I learned that once your Sim is level 10 in a career they can still get "raises" if they max their career bar again and again! :P

Aw dads do this too - they label themselves as 'stay-at-home dad'.

There are some really interesting things in this thread, most of which I didn't know! :o

I didn't know any of the things the OP commented were in the game, that's really cool! It's these small things that get me excited :3
I found out that your Sims can coach their Children on swimming and splash them, they basically can do any interaction but with more added lol
I found out that if your Sim finished High School with the A Grade they advance to level 3 in a Career they join.
I found out that Sims can play with Children on playgrounds and pretend to be monsters on the Ship.
I found out that Grim Reaper can be your employee.
I found out that watering plants with your tears takes a while lol
I found out that there are NPCs that have special interactions such as the Gym Trainer who can train your Sim and help them build up the Fitness Skill.

!?!? Gym trainers?? What! I did not even know they were in the game. How do you know who the gym trainer is?

Things I just learned recently...

Cowplants randomly dance if a radio is placed near them.
You can assign an emotion to a memory and then your sim can "Reminisce about this Memory”.
Sad sims can call the sadness hotline.

When you put the cursor on them you can tell whether a Sim is an NPC or not, it will have their title under their name 'Gym Trainer' etc. and they go around the place and coach people in the Gym, it's really cool lol
