Bought items cannot be resold. I'm not sure if EA has any plans for reselling items in storage.
That is true. You can buy them if you want for aesthetics, like having 2 bedside drawers with 2 lamps for looks, but the energy bonus will not stack. And like others said you may want to have more than 1 bathroom since any visitors or elders will sometimes wander in and stare at things and stop you from letting your sim use the toilet or shower.
Nope. Sometimes stuff breaks without you even using it.
Nope, items cannot be resold yet. There hasn't been any confirmation if EA will add a resell or trash item option except for Izzy's clothing.
Tainted Love and Frenemies I think you have to do a mean interaction. Better Late Than Never requires an elder in the house, but do this as soon as you age the sim and spam the friendly interactions like crazy because elders age fast and if you're unlucky he/she will want to move out before you can get to friendship level 10 and there's nothing you can do to stop it. Sibling Rivalry I do believe needs 2 descendants from the same family and probably requires you to do a mean interaction with them. Otherwise the rest should just be there, you may need to swipe to see them.
I have been able to start more than one relationship story on one sim, however there's barely enough time to complete one story so it's best to stick to one per sim.
I want to start the Sibling Rivalry story but no matter how I try, I can’t see it after the rivalry event. I tried it with my two starting sims and made a confrontation introduction. They’re now level three as acquaintances and I’ve already started many rivalry events. I’m playing the game on iPad with the latest OS and updates... is it because the iOS app hasn’t been updated yet?
They must be brother/sister not new sims as they won't have any family relationship between them. Breed a couple of new sims from the same parents and wait for them to become old enough to add to your house, then start off with a confrontational introduction and you'll be able to start a confrontational event and that will offer you the Sibling Rivalry option when you complete it.
@geekgirl101 & @rosemow - I have a question regarding children. I have two playable Sims in my household. One of my Sims is married to another Sim that doesn't live in the house and they had a baby. The baby lives in my household. The baby has aged up into a child today. I have a 3rd slot that I can unlock in my household, as I do have the Sim Cash to unlock it....but I was curious....what happens to the child when it ages up? Do I need to unlock that 3rd slot so that when the child ages up, it can be a playable Sim in my household? I haven't unlocked the slot yet.....but I'm just confused on what happens to the child. I've been working on the child's upbringing during the baby/toddler/child phase.....so I definitely want to ensure she's in my house when she ages to adult. If I unlock the slot, will the child automatically live in the home once it ages up?
Sorry for all the questions. I just want to make sure I do things right in moving forward. When I first started playing I had no clue on what I was doing, so I wish I had my two playable Sims get married in the beginning so that I had a family instead of having my Sims wife live outside the home. Now that I have a bassinet in my inventory, can a Sim have a child at anytime? Gosh, I'm just so confused on babies, & what to do with them.
Hello @Sha2520032003
When the child ages up to an adult , it will become a NPC in the home. If you unlock the third slot, you can then click on the family portrait and “ promote” the aged up child adult into the third slot so that she can be played. She isn’t made playable automatically, you have to choose to promote her to the third slot.
If you have a bassinet, Sims can have a child anytime.

Hello @Att50
It depends on how many playable sims slots that you have opened and have filled. You can pay to have up to 4 playable sims slot open. Your sims playable slots may already be filled. You can also only have up to 8 non active unplayable sims living in the home.

> Is 3 star toilet really better than 2 star? I really like my bathroom and dont want to use my gold toilet/tub if I dont need to. Lol
A toilet in any bathroom can give +6 energy for using it. So if your current toilet that you like gives you +6 then don't bother upgrading it. You can also buy different items for your bathroom like hand towels, toilet paper rolls and clothes hampers that increase the energy given to you when you use bathroom items.
> I'm stumped on relationships... I've done all that I can, can't find a way to do Tainted Love, The Fixer Upper, Better Late Than Never, Frenemies, More Than Friends With Benefits... don't have the sibling rivalry one either but assume have to have 2 kids... please help
For sibling rivalry, you will need 2 siblings to start a rival relstionship (the mean kind) then it will be among the regular rival options you can choose from.
> Thank you for the tips. I do have a question I haven’t seen addressed anywhere in forums. Is there any way to prevent “breakdown” of household items? Some are inexpensive to repair but one my beds is over 100 coins & everything seems break on regular basis. It’s frustrating to see your coins wasted after working so hard earn them! Thanks.
The only way to prevent breakdowns is to not use the item. If you use them regularly they will break. I have a TV that costs 500+ coins to fix when it breaks.

When you say your 2 "starting sims" do you mean the first 2 you ever created? If those are your first 2 ever, they are not siblings. Have them get into a level 3 relationship and then have 2 babies with them. Then those 2 will be siblings that you can use for the sibling rivalry.

You might want to use a NPC elder for the better late than never relationship story so they won't age out before you finish the story.

I think (someone kindly correct me if they've experienced otherwise) the benefit to using the gold bathroom appliances is that they never break down or need repair. They're the only toilets I use, despite having three bathrooms.
Thanks in advance 🤓
