I Want A "Create A New Household" Button.
Sometimes I just want to create a new family or check something in CAS.
We use to have a create a new family button.
Now, if all my lots have sims on them, I have to go to manage worlds, edit a household, create a new sim, slipt that household and only then I can create a new family. That is not very pratical.
In a later patch (obviously, it is too late to be inclued in the one likely out this week), I hope we get a new button so we can create a new household.
Would you also like that?

I don't have empty lots.
And that isn't a create a household per se. It is to create a household for that lot.
I want a new button so I don't need to go though that whole process or that I need to always have an empty lot.
OK. How that works?
I don't have an empty lot.
I am glad that option works just fine for you.
However, since I do not have any empty lots (we have so few lots to start with that I can't afford to leave one empty just to have access to a button), I find creating a new household a real hassle of having to manage worlds, edit an existing household, split it and only then getting started.
That would be a very good solution.
I don't think that is what I mean...

Will that go into my existing world or create a new game save?
I think that's only for a new game.
Then, it is not a solution for me.
I want to say, hey, create a boyfriend for my sim, to be in the game and eventually meet her.
Or a bunch of teenagers living with a governess just so I bump into teenagers more often.
I want a button to just go to CAS and do it.
One in the Gallery / Library, like suggested, would be fine. Or, perhaps, besides Manage Worlds.
It's even listed as "create new household" when you hover over it.
What I would do is go to the main menu, hit that plus sign to create a new family, go into CAS and make whoever I wanted, and then save them to my library. Then cancel out. Don't place them into a new game. Just go back and reload the game you've been playing, go to your library, and add them into your household. At least, I'm pretty sure that would work? Off to double check...
I guess it would. I will try that right now. I thank you and all who have suggested that.
I still don't find it the smoother solution compared to the button we used to have.
At least your advice is easier than what I had been doing.
Oh geez, never noticed that before, probably because that's the spot where always the Origin-in-game popup appears
When I read 'plus sign' earlier I thought it was referring to the 'new game' option on the top, which also has a plus.
But slightly annoying is true, while maybe no deal breaker, there could be an easier option than going back to the main menu.
I've wished for a button directly into CAS myself. Going back to the main menu isn't too bad, I guess, but it's a couple more loading screens to have to go through.
Exactly.
No problem.
