MCCC question - want premades to stay the same

AprilDawn

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask but I know a lot of you use MC Command Center and likely understand it better than I do! I just got the latest version - I do not like the premade sims to be messed with and I play with aging off normally - how do I get MCCC to not marry the premades or make them have babies? I thought if I disabled the custom population settings that that would work but it is not - got a notification that Paolo Rocca and Marcus Flex got married and Nancy Landgraab walked by pregnant! I also do not want anyone moving from the homes they are in. I want everything to stay the same for the premades - is that possible? I have used MCCC before and had it working that way but it has been a while and it has changed. Also I cannot find on the latest version where you can turn off the annoying things like getting a drink of water all the time - has that been removed?
Thank you!

You're better off asking over here, for starters. But, be aware, they may send you over to Discord for the help you need.

The autonomy thing is actually improved, you just set it differently - by clicking at certain objects. You can find more information here: https://deaderpoolmc.tumblr.com/AutomationScan It's actually less complicated than it seems
However I'd also like to get know how to "protect" Maxis premades from Story Progression... I know there's the flag system but I could be using it wrong because it doesn't seem to work.

The flag system should work... if it doesn't, you can also mark them all as played - MCCC won't touch played Sims unless you specifically changed settings I guess. I always make sure to mark households I don't want to be messed with as played. If you don't want anyone to get married / have babies, tweak settings in MC Pregnancy or just don't download that module at all... that'll work too, I guess. You can find lots of information about MCCC, its modules and every specific setting on its Tumblr page.

Thanks @Firande I know about the Tumblr page and I try to learn from there as much as I can when I have time It's possible that it was me doing something wrong. I really need to look closer into that.

Thank you all so much for the help and sorry if this was the wrong place to post - think I figured out most of it now!
