- crocobauraSeasoned AceI always leave them sleeping. I think it was a thing in TS2. I make sure they don't have any needs that are easily catered to like hunger or toilet, or hygiene, in the very low red. Next time I play them they are fresh and spunky and ready to rumble.

Yes, it does save a lot of time in the next playing session - SheriSimSeasoned HotshotI play rotationally and before I leave a household I usually make sure most of their needs are taken care of, except maybe sleep. I usually leave the household some time in the early evening so that if I’m changing households I can address the new households needs before they have to go to work or school.
- bshag4lvSeasoned AdventurerI'm another one that makes sure needs are not going to go south when they wake up. :D Usually I will save and quit with them standing at the edge of the bed. Just easier that way. :)
- djsboonieNew AdventurerI don't do anything other than pause the game before saving & exiting. When I play again my sim is exactly right where I left them & needs haven't changed.
- HavenRose2020New SpectatorI've never actually thought about it. I either stop playing when I find a natural stopping point in the story, or if something comes up IRL that needs to be dealt with. Whatever state they're in, that's where they are. It does sometimes add some excitement when loading back in and trying to remember if I had a plan to deal with whatever was going on.
- Not appliccable to Sims 4, but in 2 and 3 the first thing I do after loading a household is to feed the fishes. Even if I know with 100% certainty that feeding the fishes is the last thing I did before saving.
Other than that I never paid attention to my habits in this regard. - JellysimwichNew TravelerI find it really tedious and annoying to keep up with their "mortal needs" so I use the Make Happy cheat often. This allows me to focus on other aspects of the game that are more interesting to me instead of micromanaging the small stuff like using the loo or whatnot. I also don't do anything special when I'm ready to sign off - I just save and that's that.
- I usually do, and save/end the game at night when (hopefully) everyone is asleep. It's like starting a new day when opening up again. The only exception is when I have too many toddlers who need attention and I become overwhelmed. Then I just save/quit right there until I'm emotionally ready to continue ?
- simsimsereSeasoned ScoutI play rotationally so it doesn't really matter because they wont be in the same position when I return from another household. With that said I still usually take care of their needs and put them to bed before quitting.
