Eternal Sims

Since installing Ambitions my sims age up as normal to elder but then the grim reaper never comes and they just live forever . No i have not married a grim reaper into my family at any time .

So far my oldest is 265 days which is rather ridiculous on a normal life span

Also i get messages that Npc sims are nearing old age and i should visit them which is impossible considering they are NPC's and therefore do not have a house . Then 3 days later i get the message again that the same Npc is nearing old age and so on and so on .

Anne T Septic the maid and Carrie Post the mail woman are prime examples

Ageing is also messed up . My teen had a sweetheart and she aged to young adult the day before him . He aged the following morning and he immediately called her over and asked her to move in . Imagine my suprise to find she had already jumped from young adult to adult

    That is weird. I think the oldest sim I have had was like 110 days old or something close to that.

    Where is your lifespan set? Epic is 960 so, that looks normal to me.
    Life is what you make it so, make it good.

    FINALLY after 294 days the grim reaper decided to come and collect her

    Only thing was i forgot she had a death flower in her inventory so she gave it to him and goodness knows how long before he will be back to get her again .

    I noticed weird things with age as well when i instaled ambitions, The sim i played got a outfit from the past i wanted to recolor it since i didn't like the color on him after i did that he got younger thing is though i saved and quit the game for little bit but when i got back he was back to his normal age which was all the way up to near growing up to adult.

    In my game I took simis bacholer's (however it's spelt lol)remains to the science lab to be brought back, and now every so often I get a message saying I'd better visit as he doesn't have long left, but he never dies. Many generations have passed, many other sims have gone, but he is still here.

    i play on the 190 days and one of my elders died at 205 and another 210 then the other 2 elders are now 254days and still going so i guess it just waiting for grimmy to come but you can trigger it via a cheat. there son is now just an elder his self so lets see which goes first.

    If you want to get rid of her, type testingcheatsenabled true, then shift+click on her and then select 'next life stage' or something. I did that when I forget my sim had a death flower as well, and it worked! :D
