this thread is long, so someone's probably said these already (i didn't read all 239 pages lol) but i learnt that:
- your child's weight can be affected by how much you feed them as a baby - sims in the cooking career can make a signature cake when they get to a certain point in their career (though it just looks like a regular chocolate cake) - elder sims can retire (seems kind of obvious but i wasn't sure until recently)
when gravity falls and the earth becomes sky, fear the beast with just one eye
This is sooo weird because it literally just happened to me, but the dogs can pick up the god dang food dishes and will bring it over to your sim if they're hungry. (It wasn't my personal sim's dog. She takes care of her baby boi Oscar. It was another sim's dog who I invited over, whose dog is filthy, hungry, and sad all the time)

Wowowow that whole weight thing is weeeeird. I thought it depended on the parents weight and genetics, y'know?
My children are almost always kind of fat and turn into ridiculously obese teenagers, no matter the parents' genetics. But what shall I do when they're hungry, just not feed them?

Give them proper things to eat IE salads, roasted chicken, etc...and make them do stuff. I don't know what options there are for kids as I have none I play in game, but if they have options to play or run or work out then do it. My Sims were constantly huge. I monitored what they ate and made sure they ran around a lot. Once they maxed their skill for that I didn't have to worry about it much and now only slightly watch what they eat. It's annoying and stupid, really...but also too you can cheat in CAS and fix their bodies to how you want them.
Mine are sort of chunky also as they grow into teen. I get the Lean potion and have them drink it and they go down to a size I like better no more fat!
You can always give your chunky teens a couple of servings of the diet ice cream and they'll lose weight. *Bemoans the fact this doesn't work in real life*
A squeamish sim can 'breathe deeply' to help deal with uncomfortable things like fishing.
Click on the sim when it stops fishing to find the action. Gives a positive moodlet to the sim.
Only if they have the 'Nauseous' moodlet. So you can do this after they've eaten spoiled food, had a privacy violation, etc.
nods, true. Would be nice to have it in those situations as well.
Don't anger the fruit. It may make her toot (at you).

They drop the weight crazy fast from jogging, though. I tend to send my sims' kids out to jog several times right when they age up to teen.
I wish it were that effective in real life.
I learned in the sims 3 if you locked the front door to all but your family members the maid couldn't come in (but it bet it wouldn't stop the social worker) this actually surprised me
- It seems to me that female sims pick up weight slightly after giving birth. Although this could just be my eyes. Haven't tested this on males yet. [/quote]
I noticed my recent mother figure again weight one day when she was getting older, in adult phase not just young adult and she had 2 girls early on and then twin toddlers (I'm playing it as a later in life whoopsie)
Anyway I am pretty sure the weight gain set in about the time they were toddlers (which thanks to the compelling interactions babies still have was the day they came home from the hospital)
A little one but, depending on what colour you have the washer or dryer it can have a coin slot, or not.
The coin slot probably doesn’t function of course. I only noticed because the washer with no coin slot has a water drop and the dryer has wavy lines. When I tried a different off-white, there was a coin slot instead.

Oooh, I didn't know that, gonna have to play around with the colours. Thanks.

I tried to have my sim be a bad tenant and not pay his apartment bills and found out you can lie to your landlord that the bill check is inside the mailNothing happens though, was hoping she'd get angry but she didn't. Also on talk like a pirate day you can lie as to where X isThat made the landlord laugh
I don’t know if this is the kind of thing this thread is looking for, but in build mode you can apply a frieze or trim to a single side of a single wall (as opposed to a whole room) by holding down the SHIFT key when placing them. No more friezes inside the house when using fences as railings to knock out a floor.
This game needs more Sailor Moon!
Hold SHIFT while using the FRIEZE tool to apply it to a single wall, and not an entire room!

This is good to know, sometines it is hard to remove a floor because of that. Thank you for sharing it. I love open floors like that being able to look down into the livingroom or the entranceway.
If you make your sim eat a lot of grilled cheese, and I mean A LOT, you can unlock the secret aspiration under the food one called 'Grilled Cheese' I actually found this out by accident and wanted to see if my sim would get fatter quicker if I gave her a bunch of fried food lol
Aliens in the Science carrer can use the interaction 'Revive' when they find a Dead Space alien, squid, porcupine, coral, etc. on the Science career's lot.
They can also erase memories in the Mischief section (which comes in handy if you're trying to get the 'Double Life' achievement.

Edit: Never Mind, I found it! Disappointed you can’t pick them up, though.

- Pets can drink/roll in water from a broken dishwasher.
- An older sibling can comfort a toddler that's had a nightmare or is sad in general.
- Toddlers can reject hugs from other Toddlers.
- Toddlers can take slices of cake by themselves, or food in general, without help.

If you download one of my builds, by all means, leave me a message and tell me what you did and did not like about it.
That's a good hint! Thank you.
