    I have yet to experience this bug, but then again my late Main Save game, I had turned off aging to await Infants. So, although the three Toddlers have earned such, I won't see it, now. I'm going to have to take a look at Erik's baby brother, who aged up to a Child most recently.

    The most recent toddler I played did not get the trait and I had to cheat it on. Which was easy enough to do to be fair. But if you didn’t know about the trait you’d be none the wiser.

    MCCC just made my day - I totally forgot that I could pause my sim's pregnancy (until infants come) so that I can more or less play as normal while waiting. Duh! I've never needed that feature, so totally forgot it existed until a few moments ago. Day Made.

    In the Style Influencer career path, when they ask you to do a "Beauty Review" video, does that mean BEAUTY PRODUCT REVIEW? I am annoyed how unclear it is.

    I tried to use that while my Sim couple was still in uni. They got married just prior to entering the university, but even though the pregnancy was on pause, she wasn't allowed to sign-up for what was to be their third and last Term. I really wanted to see how the couple would manage the care of their baby while seeking their degrees. Oh, well. I may end up doing that, too. So far, I've had to reconstruct, if you will, the save I was playing since due to what we call in my household Operator Malfunction, I managed to obliterate the save trying to do a back up. I know better, I really do. Major Oopsie!

    I have yet to try out that career, but I do believe that is the only one that has the word Beauty attached to it. Give it a try and see what happens.

    I think so. It's been a bit since I played with that career.

    That's the one they want when they ask you to do a Beauty Review video for Corporate Partnership, so I would assume so.

    That's why my sims stay home to do Uni - you can have kids while going to school full time that way. Mine haven't even applied yet lol, was working on relevant skills first.

    I just reinstalled the game on a new laptop so now I have all the original families and lots. Do I have to delete all the lots and families or is that automatically done when I transfer my original save, tray folder, etc?

    Your save should be just as it was.

    L Faba is so weird in my game. She appears in pretty much every world and is always pulling faces and acting like a child.

    I’m thinking to make her more serious looking. Even maybe give her evil witch makeover. But she is quite fun as she is.

    What sims do you find amusing?

    Looking at houses in the gallery, it became clear to me that a large number of builders have no idea what the phrase " starter house" means.

    I accidentally aided and abetted my Sim. I failed to make the other Sim active, when I had them eat butternut gnocchi. I didn't even realize what I had done until Joey suddenly had Kayleigh's dinner in his hand. So, I had her eat his pepperoni pizza, instead. :open_mouth:

    I'm guilty of that with some of my "starter" houses. These days, I do try to keep them at starter prices. I have several I still consider starter houses in size rather than price. I get carried away with the landscaping.

    I don't like the smaller houses. I like to get the camera in so I can see, without having to bend around a wall. LOL Suffer me to say, I have not attempted to build 'starter homes' which implies not only in price but little more than a two-bedroom, one bath house. (And, if it's a brand new house, the landscaping is left for the new 'owners'. ;) )

    I play with the walls cutaway (?) so the walls aren't an issue for me. I usually play in houses just big enough for my household. By that I mean, if I have a family of 4, I'll have them live in a 3-bedroom house. I don't really like to play in mansions unless I have a full household.

    Is there an advantage to cooking the more expensive higher level recipes?

    I believe there is a higher chance of the meal being high quality and giving you a positive moodlet when it's eaten.

    I was worried about my toddler being taken away because they could not go to bed and mum could not read them a story and put them to bed either.I did move the toddler bed in the middle of the room and the toddler was ok then.Will they take the toddler away if they are very tired?

    @Gigge
    You could probably start a thread in the feedback forum.

    Thanks, @simgirl1010. Not sure I want to start anything, but I was willing to chime in. I know it's an issue many people have had. There were some threads when the game first started and they were filtering words like pizza. I thought one thread might have survived.

    I don't recall seeing anything recent and doing a search for gallery filter brings up some pretty old threads that would be considered necroposting.
