    Yippee, starting house 2 now, bcos Jaylene is kinda immortal already living with her life thing full for four days. Travis died and could not be plead for.
    Travis death of old age, he laid down exactly in front of the door to the sleeping room, as you can see there's no way Jaylene could have walked in the sleeping room.

    Jayden turned into a young adult, while immortal Jaylene is just eating.

    Nice work @Fennadev =)

    @solarstorm Leave auto-aging on....it's understood that past households will eventually pass on from old age etc. When their household is empty...the game will auto-fill the houses. Unfortunately..if u choose auto-aging off...it will also affect the "townies"....not something we want w/this challenge. If there r Sims that you'd like 2 play in the future...make sure 2 save those families 2 your Library or share them on the Gallery 4 future play.

    @solarstorm The rule is that if you already have a house with the value of $30,000 when the founder dies, then you may proceed until the heir is a young adult and then start house 2. If the house value is not at $30,000 at the time of death then the challenge is lost. Also, you absolutely cannot play any of the remaining sims for this challenge.

    IF your Main Sim dies AFTER your heir is born....u MAY continue game play. However....u may NOT play any of the remaining Sims in the household. That being said....if the family can autonomously some how come up w/the remaining funds 2 reach the $30k benchmark...there is still hope that the challenge could b completed (however unlikely that may b). IF the house net worth is ALREADY @ that $30k benchmark...chances r that u will b able 2 just play a waiting game & still complete the challenge.

    YES!

    In addition...u could just save rooms of the house & then snap them in like puzzle pieces as your family can afford them...would b a cheaper option that waiting 2 have funds 4 the full house
    Upload them 2 the Gallery if u wanna' share w/all of us....save 2 your Library if u wanna' keep it private =)

    If u just want written rules:

    In order 2 save a room
    -go into build mode
    -use your pointer 2 select a room (click walls or floor of it)
    -once it's selected go up 2 the folder w/an arrow icon along the top of the screen "Save To My Library"
    -in drop down menu chose the 2nd option "Save Room"
    -add in a name, description & type of room yadda yadda
    -save room to my library or share room to the gallery

    Hello! This is my Drifter Challenge: House 001

    I started out with Nia Rider. A poor lonely soul. No family, no money, no home.

    04-02-15_1-24nbspPM.png

    She's a survivor though. Living off the land and selling what she could.

    04-01-15_5-30nbspPM.png

    04-02-15_7-53nbspPM-2.png

    Soon, she could afford some necessities.

    04-01-15_6-02nbspPM.png

    Days passed by pretty quick. Eventually, she met a nice man, if not quite eccentric looking, right out in front of her lot. She wasn't sure he was the one, but he was relentless. Finally, she gave him a chance, AND a makeover, and before she knew it they were building a life together.

    She even had walls now!

    04-02-15_10-25nbspPM.png

    Life was definitely turning around for Nia. She even found a new passion.

    Painting!

    04-03-15_5-02nbspPM-2.png

    Nia and her husband ended up having two children before he kicked the bucket of old age.

    04-03-15_10-22nbspPM-5.png

    She was very sad.

    04-03-15_10-23nbspPM-2.png

    ...But she got over it!

    She worked hard, sold lots of paintings, and raised her children.

    Here is a tour of the house:

    @Vihisha Thanks! I enjoyed finishing my very first challenge! I really like that it didn't take weeks/months to finish. Which makes it more enjoyable for me. I just uploaded my house to the Gallery. I tagged it #DrifterChallenge, and my ID is Emmblie. I'm glad you enjoyed my post. =)
