What's Something You Always Do In Your Sims Games?
I'll start:
1) If they are an occult sim, I cheat their occult powers and skills
2) Always give them Waterproof, Storm Chaser, Heatproof, Ice Proof, and Fresh Chef traits via Cheats
3) Never start a game with kids already in my household
Your Turn!

They always have to have at least one kid. (I’m a huge family player)
I always spoil them rotten.

My sims always achieve a pristine reputation before aging up to young adult.
There are some traits my sims will never have. Gloomy, glutton, lazy, slob, evil, mean, hates children, paranoid, erratic.
1) Sims3, create a sim and most of the time they are really colorful.
2) Play and get really excited if alien abducted.
3) Have at least one toddler in the house. I love toddlers.
4) Take pictures.
2. I pretty much always build my sims home to completion of some kind before playing them because I just don't really like to play the whole buy toilet buy fridge buy 1 counter decorate one room thing that often
its all or nothing really
3. kill cheerful/good sims off for no good reason or make it so they are secretly very evil or whatever
I don't even have excuse really
something about those trait being one of sims defining 3 traits just annoys my brain so much
4. put two cool sims together and they make 1-3 kids and they probably have very gothic house and many artsy hobbies and kids are straight A students because I cannot escape this trope even though I really have to so I start screaming AAAAAAAAA in my brain everytime i notice i did it again p_p
5.Vampires. or I like to think occults in general but really its about 90% Vampires.

Give them the waterproof and storm chaser sim traits.
Give them the Shameless and Carefree traits.
Give them the reward traits that slow motive depletion.
Flag them for no motive decay.
Unless I'm making new townies, flag them for no career.
And Free Real Estate command if I want to move the sim(s) into an empty house.
Also, I take a ton of screenshots.
And if the game generates new townies, I save and go into manage worlds (making sure cas.fulleditmode is on) and check out their outfits. Any townies that don't have good outfits get a makeover.
But then, it's so easy to be happy in this game that the suffering or struggles are rarely permanent
@simgirl1010 I think I've played sims with all those traits except paranoid, and I don't have the pack that paranoid comes from.
This is all done on 100% Vanilla with up to date packs, no CCs or Mods.
The latest one I've done is an island themed comedy breakfast cafe, situated in Sulani. It was designed in response to a challenge, but I've had it running actively under the ownership of Duane Talla, who became a professional comedian as an adult. No one has yet died laughing over their scrambled eggs, most likely because breakfast hours aren't long enough for customers to remain in a lengthy state of hysteria.
I do the same. Every child of my sim self's has this trait except one when the Top Notch Toddler trait was bugged and never appeared when she aged up to a child.
1. Every family member gets the always welcome trait.
2. I try to not make perfect sims. I use all of the traits except hates children. I despise people that hate kids in real life. You can not want them or even not want to be around them but to hate and mistreat a child is disgusting. I won’t deal with it in my games.
3. I try not to give my sims perfect lives. Tragedy and hardships happen. I just roll with it. Except in my current save. I refuse to let Salim die this soon…he’s tried…twice.
4. I incorporate premades (usually Zoe, Penny, Salim or Gavin) into my save. Even when I try not to, they still wiggle their way in so I don’t fight it anymore.
5. Toddlers have to max their skills before aging up.
I do the opposite. For my main six houses, i like to keep a log of when they were last sold etc and like in real life, i like to make the value go up slightly. For example the last house to sell in Llama Lagoon Newcrest sold in 1986 for $68,485 simoleans. When sold again in 1992 with updated appliances and new furniture added it sold for $70,002 simoleans.
Play Lana McKennon from the sim bin, either as leading character or close supporting character. Always tweaked in some way.
Send sim(s) to Selvadoria once necessary skills are at least 4 or 5
Go nuts on finding harvestables and starting a garden. The Spice and Romance festivals are prime seed sources.
Ditto for posters and snow globes
Establish a garlic patch by front door as soon as possible.
I do the color thing too!
Gardening. Always garden plot or more.
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Play Premades
Cheat Needs
Very few of my Sims have a career. I do allow them to have parttime.jobs or they do odd jobs for extra money. And I seldom allow their funds to exceed 25,000 Simoleans because it's too easy to amass a huge fortune in Sims4. I like the challenge of keeping a general Middle Class feel in my worlds. They donate to charities a lot, as well as volunteer their time to help others and clean up the environment.
All the babies in my game are the result of my Sims marrying and starting their family. None are created in CAS. I like watching the genetics at work as the family ages up and the kids grow up, marry, then have babies of their own. The young adults are allowed to choose their own love interests and that can take a long time for some of them. They spend a lot of their time meeting and dating new Sims before they show any interest in a potential mate. I don't interfere with their choices even though it may derail the storyline I had in mind. But it creates a bit of drama when the in-laws take an immediate dislike to the new bride or groom. Or a sibling develops a strong interest in the new family member.
I enjoy knitting items then selling them on Plopsy, utilizing the woodworking table, and hitting up the recycling center for bits that can be sold for cash. Or can be used if I have a Sim who produces candles, furniture and electronic parts.
Solar panels and water catchers are placed when my Sims can afford to purchase them. In RL I am a huge fan of renewable energy.
My Sims gain skill points by doing that skill or by reading about the skill. But I freely admit I cheat their motives from time to time. Especially if their current love interest calls and wants to meet up.
Toddlers must have their skills maxed out before being aged up to a child. All children and teens must take part in after school activities. Good grades are expected and homework has to be finished before dinner is served. And both parents help with their children's needs. Equally. If Mom is busy creating candles at bedtime, Dad must read to the toddler until they fall asleep.
I don't always play the family scenario, but it is my favorite style. I have a couple of saves inhabited by single YAs that party every day and night and generally don't have a set storyline in mind. There are no rules and I love the difference in gameplay that brings whenever I get tired of playing with families.
- My sims always start out as unmarried young adults without children.
- the majority of my sims start out as occults or become occults very early on
- I use freerealestate when it makes sense for my sims to own a house. But no money cheats after that moment and no selling all furniture to earn money
- all toddlers max all skills
- ever since I discovered the fresh chef reward trait, I have sims persue this aspiration to earn this trait. No cheating the trait
- use the likes feature to make Sims raise fun with hobbies like painting, writing,... Some activities make sense to raise fun
I often cheat up their needs, especially when I'm sending my Rock Star out to do his Rock Star stuff, as in concert and photoshoots. I would hate to have him empty his bladder on stage or worse.
I devise a plan of attack for gameplay.
