@SimGuruModSquad: I hate to necro posts more than 2 weeks old, but I was just wondering:
Since these "NPC Hosted Situation" stubs exist, how far away is it to actual implementation of the function? Is there any other orphan code buried somewhere that could be "revived" with a little effort, or is it just one of those things that would need to be rebuilt from scratch?
I just think that NPC hosted events could lead to an interesting gameplay mode, adding some depth to the Sim-iverse apart from pure user control.
Your Sims' careers regularly present "situations" to deal with, I think it might be interesting to create other social event situations that could be pushed on a surprise basis that would offer opportunities to level up a skill or introduce Sims that may not otherwise interact. And of course, if there's existing code to leverage, it would be better than reinventing the stuff.
