What if the director dies on the set?

Very good question, @Stutum ! Yesterday, my hair & makeup guy died on the set. I didn't see a replacement for him but I didn't really look around too closely, sorry. I was already set to start my performances and the death and sadness really set me back time-wise. I barely finished in time and didn't do as well as I normally do as my Sim (and everyone) was just too sad.

Good thing you got your hair and makeup first, @ctroi ! Okay, that was awful. xD I just hope it won't break the event if it happens, which is likely. Hopefully someone else takes over. And yeah, sad sims aren't very productive, understandably enough. I think I'll just have to create an extra save for the filming, just to be sure. :)

@Stutum , Yes, I was so glad that I had already visited his station. I have my routine at my acting gigs--Hair & makeup then costume first. I then like her to practice scene next. It helps put her in the right mood to get her scenes down just right, then she will eat and interact as needed before getting up to film her scenes. LOL The gig that Kole, her hair and makeup artist died was the first gig she didn't get the highest (gold) for her performance. She didn't take the trait were that doesn't matter, so had she not had it done already I am afraid her reputation or performance would have really taken a dive. As it was, they were not that pleased. In her defense, I think she did an awesome job considering!

@ctroi I usually get the costume and makeup first as well, just in case. Too bad she didn't get gold for that, but that's how it goes some times. xD Actually, right after my last reply, a producer died of old age on the set. Fortunately, it didn't affect my sim's performance.

So funny story, my director just died and my character is newly pregnant with hair and makeup and the costume ready and the show can't go on??

Similar thing happened to me. My costume outfitter died as soon as I got on the lot, old age. When Grim showed up, My famous sim demanded he bring her back. Told him off. He did. My sim was Very Confident for the rest of the day for having Ordered Grim.

Sounds like interesting gigs!!! :) I'm a bit surprised those film set sims obviously don't ever retire? I would have found it natural that they were replaced when reaching elderhood. On real life film sets you very rarely find elderly workers... Everything else on the Plumbob Studios set feels so authentic and real, maybe they just forgot to include an upper age limit for the workers?

Co star died on set and now the scene with him can't be performed.

LOL! I can imagine your sim just being like, "Oh, no. Not today, Buddy! You bring our costume fitter back right now, or it's you and me in the parking lot! Think I'm playing?"

...You know, that wouldn't be a bad scene in a comedy about the film industry...

I was just on set and 4 different people died ?. Its been more than 12 hours and I'm still stuck here. Also I made less money than usual and my agency was mad at me ?
