Neighbourhood stories still working after disabling
I disabled neighbourhood stories and a few days later a sim I wasn't playing randomly just died, I'm sure I disabled it correctly? Is there another way to disable this that I'm missing or is it just a bug? If anyone knows how to stop this completely or if there's a mod that does it for me please tell me!
If you still have aging on for played sims and NPCs after turning off Neighborhood Stories, that might be the cause of the sims dying. So, I suggest you check your Game Options>Gameplay Settings. In my game, I have mine set to allow NPC aging and dying (It's controlled by checking the unplayed sims checkbox - uncheck to stop aging). For played sims, my setting for the auto age dropdown is set for only active household. That setting keeps my other playable sims from aging while I am not playing them. NPCs will age and die and the current household that I am playing will age while I play them.
Hope this helps.
