    Only learnt yesterday that you can be invited to concerts (rabbit-holes) by other sims... when was this made!?! Got so excited when this happened to my sim yesterday!

    It came in City Living! It’s been quite buggy though and I personally haven’t gotten it to work properly, glad to hear it seems to be working now.

    Interesting, my Sim has a friendly relationship with her talking toilet :D

    Ahh that makes a lot of sense, definitely hope this bug is gone then :smile: I wonder how much I have never learnt about Sims because of bugs like this, I'm curious now!

    @izecson @Bearpal64 My sims do it all the time, but I have to click right in the middle of the bed. It seems like there is a "right spot" and it can be difficult to find it, but the spot doesn't change, so when you've found it, it should be easy to get them to do it. Hope this helps :-)

    I noticed that!
    I also noticed that if you have a holiday that involves giving or receiving presents, you can check the mailbox for presents!

    I noticed some weird floating lightning in Sylvan Glade while my sim was fishing. I zoomed into that lightning and found this. Interesting :o

    The best way to make money with the recycling bin is to drag items into it. If the butler or visitors use it, you earn nothing.

    Apparently patients can die from certain illnesses at the hospital :astonished:

    This is a really fast way to raise Empathy for teens as there's no limit to how many cards you can send.

    I've just found out that if you click on the little icon next to a sim's need bar, you can auto-solve it. The sim will seek out the nearest fridge, toilet, etc.

    The only time I tried doing this, the Sim auto-solved by promptly peeing her pants.

    I learned that in the April 2019 patch the laptop is an unlockable. Now I have to use cheats EVERY STINKIN TIME.

    That's a new laptop added to be unlocked with Freelancer career. There are still the two other laptops that can be bought at any time.

    I don't wanna make a thread but did they update what stuff can go on shelfs? I remember that a lot of stuff wouldn't go on shelfs. Like the bottles with pets treats etc. But now it works? :o

    Are those base-game or DLC-specific?
    I like fantasy and a bit of Sci-Fi. Want to know what I'm reading?
    I also like wandering the hills.

    They must come with Strangerville then, that’s the only pack I don’t have and I only have the unlockable laptop

    Speaking of: Appeasing Gnomes give you Empathy. If they like it, of course.
    And coffee seems to be a sure bet. Are the gnomes Swedish? We sure like our coffee...

    Same here. I cheated the laptop to be available, and the good news is that it is a computer that sims are not hooked on. It sits in a sim's inventory and I've never seen the test sim pull it out autonomously. Looks like laptops could be the way forward for me.

    Oh great to know! Thanks 😊

    I just realized you can enter an occupied lot in build mode instead of play mode, and it doesn't cost the household money. At least it didn't seem to take any of Vlad's money when I remodeled Straud mansion.

    I usually go with coffee as well, and they very rarely dislike it.
    (us Norwegians like our coffee as well B) )
