    What happens if all the Cottage Living sims die without children?

    Morbid, but hear me out. I just read an article about how interconnected that world is, and from all the let's plays I've seen it's true. But there's something that occurs to me, say you have aging on for all your sims. Heck even if you don't, all the pre-made Cottage Living sims could die. Would new owners of the bar automatically spawn? The grocers, a new mayor, a new creature keeper? And say you decide to try to play as a Crumblebotton is that possible, will she lose her position as a vendor? Or can you own a grocers now?

      Not sure about Crumblebotton but I know that if you play as one of the NPCs a new one will spawn in their place. So I assume the same will happen if they die. You will have a new pub owner, grocer, mayor, etc.

      Yes, these are all roles that will respawn with new Sims in them (could even be a different gender in the role next time) if they die. If you choose to play them actively, this will remove the role from them. You can't play the bar owners AS the bar owners, one of the game changers tried that in their video and they lost that role when they became played Sims.

      That is so not fair the pub owners even have a house. That's just teasing you then. That's why, when my sim got a sage pregnant and married her, we just took the kid and never moved the sage in. So she could keep her job. She just visits.

      Dang it, you know I was kind of excited thinking pub was like a knew lot and one we could own. Since they own the pub. Like we can own retail, and restaurants.

      The families will just die out and the npc’s will spawn as random npc’s from the game. I do this with most of the pre-made families the packs come with as I care very little for them.

      Would she be able to keep her role if you moved her in as a roommate NPC, or does she have to be unhoused?

      As Captain Kirk put it so eloquently, "Death is a part of Life." Unless it's my major/main character dying too soon, I don't worry about it. Aging is on for All, unless I've got Sims in Uni, and if I'm playing a traditional rotation. Then it's aging for active household, only.

      All designated NPC sims respawn if they die or are played. The crumplebottoms are the exception. The CotLiv NPCs are like the Hermit in OR and Father Winter in Seasons. When they die a new one spawns.

      It's actually very confusing because the game gave her a house in Sulani and she's still the sage, but according to everything I read, actually playing her would screw that up. But the other sages also have houses. And one of them might even be married, unless that's his sister. But I didn't do that.

      The houses may remain empty but a NPC will keep bars running.
