    I didn't know human sims can have a baby with a cat/dog...
    That’s DEFINITELY a bug. I’d report that on Answers HQ immediately if I were you.

    There IS a memories system in The Sims 4 that’s not well known. There’s a button somewhere; I think in the camera/view panel.

    I'm curious about this. Does the memory actually affect the sims involved or is it just simply us tagging a photo as a memory?

    This happened back when Cats and Dogs first released to players who used MCCC. One of my current sims has biological dog-siblings through her dad for this very reason. If you use that mod, make sure you have the latest version. If you don't, definitely report it as a bug.

    I learned if you time the holiday just right, the Flower Bunny can appear right when you're headed into the final event of Strangerville. How the bunny even got in there remains a mystery, but s/he makes a great recruit!

    Tagging a photo as a memory and assigning an emotion to it.

    You can visit another sims home (or lot) that a planned event was set.

    For example, you might have planned a house party with one of your households at a certain day and time. Now if you go happen to go to another household and travel to said lot that the house party is suppose to take place it will still take place and your sim doesn't even have to be invited for it. A caterer, mixologist will come if you had hired them in th eother household and guests that were invited will also come. :3

    There's peak hours for certain lots like bars and night clubs. Much as I enjoy having my sim dance tilt he sun comes up I notice the DJ leaves out about 4am and usually won't be back until 12pm. Til then, any sims coming onto the lotwon't be looking the dance as they'll be hitting up the bar for the most part, socializing and looking at tv for the most part.

    Also, didn't realize a sim could multitask by drinking and being on the computer. Now my sims can drink coffee while playing computer games all day. :tongue:

    I didn't even know there was a flower bunny. Is it only with Strangerville?

    It's the equivalent of the Easter Bunny, it came with Seasons :)

    No Flower Bunny is the Easter Bunny. If you add holidays to you calender and add Easter you can have the Flower Bunny come to your house the same as Father Winter(Christmas). It is in the same box that you pick out or remove things to do for each holiday. You can pick hunting for eggs, a grand meal, trick or treat in that box

    If I'm remembering correctly the pictures gives your sim a mood/emotion if that said picture have an emotion attach to it. Like if a painting is a sad painting, your sims would get sad around that painting. Its the same with the pictures I believe.

    You can influence adult children to do things for you! Handy, especially when they come to visit :dizzy:

    I didn't know that when a girl and a boy sim get married that eventually the girl sim will changer her last name to match her Husbands. Isn't this so cute?

    Today I learned that rainbows randomly appear in the sims..and they apparently don't care about time as the fact I've paused the game to take a screenshot...and it still disappeared.

    Have they changed that, as it never used to happen, I've always gone into CAS and change it myself.

  • nerdfashionnerdfashion Posts: 5,947 Member
    No, I don't think they have. I'm pretty sure it takes a few sim days, but for me, it's happened several times.

    When the sims 4 first came out. Married sims didn't change their names. You did indeed needed to go into cas to change your sims names. Tho I usually needed my females to keep their last name since I usually play legacy style.
    @February11 hope that answer your question.

    Ahh, so it's not changed - unless you've got the mod.

    Also, didn't realize a sim could multitask by drinking and being on the computer. Now my sims can drink coffee while playing computer games all day. :tongue:

    I set up a party with my current household and invited the sims I was about to rotate to, but when I rotated to them, there was no notification of the party and they didn't go. So do I have to remember the party details and travel there? I feel disappointed.

    There's a very low croak sound when you switch sims as you play. I've never noticed it before, but after getting great quality headphones I can hear it and it's driving me mad.

    Looks like you have to take you sim there to the part. So you might do need to remember the date and time you set the party as.
