    Is there any list where all these things are listed? So I dont have to go through over 250 pages :smiley:

    No not a list that I know of haven't seen one. These are just things that we have noticed happening as we have been playing our games, reading through them takes quite some time, but once you get to the end you will have learned quite a few things you can look for in your own game. Plus maybe some that others haven't noticed also.

    Did you know that if you purchase fish via the fish tank and click open, even on a public lot, you can actually place the fish in your inventory by clicking the put in inventory option...handy if you have a vampire that needs some plasma packs and can make them but can't go out in the day to get them, and they are actually cheaper, it cost 150 simoleans to fully stock the aquarium and it costs 50 each for a plasma pack, that may help you save money too.

    Just found out we have such a cute and detailed female hairstyle for base game!

    Thx Emma!
    It is...... so cool! I feel that it’s one of the most well-done hairstyle in the game. Wish we could get more like that.

    Did you know that when the monster under the bed appears your Sim children may be too scared/excited to sleep but they can still Nap? Also there are Nightlights from Parenthood GP that are supposed to prevent the monster from even appearing. :)

    @Bearpal64 these nightlights are quite the incentive for me for getting the Parenthood GP, I really do not like the monster under the bed !! It so messes up the energy level of the Simkids.

    Honestly out of all the packs for the Sims 4 it was the one I wanted the most (before Seasons was announced that is ) and despite not using everything yet... It is one that changed family life for me so much so that I recommend it highly.

    Yup, it was a bit of fun at first, but it soon got frustrating! I usually have a spare room with a double bed in it so I send my kids off to sleep there if it happens too much. I haven't ever had any really decent interactions with the monster, so unless I haven't pursued it enough, the relationship doesn't go anywhere.

    I had a SIM child once make friends on her own with the monster, she auto sat down and started telling it a story while her twin would run to wake up their mom upset from it

    Never had that happen, then I don't have twins. So, sometimes there is interesting interactions.

    I had one make friends with it too but it only lasts one night and by the next night she was scared of it again.

    You can turn off the monster under the bed in MCCC, I believe if you have that.

    I didn't know that with Laundry Day Stuff some of those actions are autonomous like I was focused on one of the kids and the mom came down the stairs holding the laundry bag and put it in the washing machine. She didn't turn it on though as she went up stairs and went to bed lol.

    Another Laundry Day related thing is I didn't know that the machines make a sound when they were done their cycle ^^

    Did they introduce new traits and skills after the patch? My sim just gained the Hero and Everyman trait as well as the persuasion skill... My other sim gained the Greed trait. :astonished:

    Apparently you can extinguish yourself in a shower or pool when your sim is on fire, but I haven't been able ot get them to do it even though the option is there.

    Not sure if it's not working or a mod is conflicting with it gotta check and see. :#

    Yep~ they'll do it autonomously but they're also like 'nah i'll turn it on later' which they will if another sim doesn't do it for them. I do wonder if neat sims will turn it on automatically or not.

    Active sims can quash the tense "not enough activity" moodlet by watching sports on TV.

    I just found out that when kids are at school or adults are at work you can still click on them and pick options like study hard or slack off or make friends haha! I really had no idea you could do that

    I found out that cooking gourmet meals during a holiday counts towards the "cook 3 gourmet meals in a single event" stage of Master Chef.

    I've had mine go to the shower to extinguish themselves before. I don't have mods, so maybe there is a conflict there.

    They can't age up either, which I find annoying!

    If you don't mind using mods, MCCC can turn that off so that they age.
