Why did my passive sim dissappear

An unmarried passive sim, mother of 4 dissappear with no trace what so ever. I just discovered this December 11, 9pm while playing. I Logged out and in, she is still gone but her children are still there but there father's memory of her is not. As well as her picture in the portrait. I also am not seeing her around town. (I am curious to see if her head will still pop up for mother when the children grow up or are they just motherless now? )

    "Culled" is... basically deleted. The game has a limit of the number of Sims it can have (it's an adjustable number in settings) and if you're getting close to the limit it deletes some unplayed Sims. This is done for performance reasons, and they recommend you keep the number low if you don't have the latest and greatest computer.

  • Was she in her own household, or living with the children and the father?

    If she was in her own household and it wasn't favourited then she was probably culled.

  • Update: The game eventually recycled her as a town member but she is not recognized as a member of my family.
