    in The Sims 4 General Discussion
    Three of the four YAs and the only full Adult Sim in the house are all ill, combating anything from Bloaty Head, Llama Fever to a Cold, and there are three toddlers in the household as well. I swear the Chief Intern is bringing this stuff home with him from the hospital. Wash, wash, wash and then wash again your HANDS, Dr. Joe! Oi! I don't think toddlers ever catch this stuff, but if they do, it's going to get all the rougher.

    Please share your rough moments.

      Somehow the coronavirus is even contaminating our Sims!

      Yeah, I was tempted to use the phrase Community Spread. But viruses being what they are they are generally contagious. I haven't had an outbreak of illness in my game like this since Sims2 when the dorm in uni was a small epidemic.
      :open_mouth: It's okay, I like the challenge.

      Oh, and now two of my Sims have the Sweaty Shivers. My star and his girlfriend.

      Here's the story - I have Foster Care mod installed, allowing me to have foster kids.
      Foster kids live at your household, but are NOT part of it - you can't control them and
      you can't even peek at their stats.

      At that time I had only one (adult) sim in the household and so I decided to get two foster Toddlers.

      I cursed myself 50 times over for that decision. Potty training was hell.
      Managing 2 completely uncontrollable toddlers with only 1 sim is insanity.

      Now granted - if you know what you're doing it's not too bad,
      but bad timing can really botch things up. You're stuck potty training while the otter kid is
      bawling their eyes out and breaking stuff. You bathing one kid while other one is running away.

      AS much as I love toddlers in this game, thus was NOT fun.

      You know it's a rough gaming session when your vampire sim has both the "sloppy drinker" and "insatiable thirst" weaknesses.

      Actually, this is weird. I don't have the disease 'Pets and Animals" pack or the "Strangeville" pack. Yet I get:

      As a moodlet,
      Dazzed +2
      Dizzy
      (From Illness)
      She can't tell if it's her or the rest of the world that's spinning.

      EDIT: I meant 'Cat's and Dogs' and 'Strangerville' for the disease ones.

      When your sim gets pregnant and you forget they're a glutton.
      She seriously already went through two pizzas by herself, I'm gonna go bankrupt buying pizzas.

      It reminds me of when I had a 'roommate household' in The Sims 1 with 7 sims and one of them got sick an died. I freaked out, cause I didn't understand what happened as she was just coughing for a few days and that's that. After that, another roommate followed the same path and I was like: WTH! What is going on here?!
      Then the third started couching and I knew I wasn't crazy and something was up in that house.
      Soon all 7 roommates died and I realized it was... the freaking hamster.
      Never bought my sims a hamster ever again!

      :D

      Well, I will rescue a bit from hijacking this thread. You Know it's a rough gaming session when you're in a building mood, but you can't figure out what to build. Perhaps, you should build a museum?

      Maybe that was the way of his/hers/theirs way to tell you: "I have seen enough, good bye eternity!" :)
      My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
      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..

      You know it's going to be a rough gaming session when you have to adjust the lips of the sim you are using MCCC Control on. And the hair of said sim. First Person View hates fringes. I get lucky sometimes and the perfect shot happens right off the bat. But it's when the sim doesn't close his/her mouth, and their lips aren't even close to Roddy's cheek that I scream internally.

      Well, sometimes a new father may get jealous of the baby, but still. :open_mouth:

      When every time a sim tries to cook eggs, it starts a fire.

      This is literally happening in my Asylum challenge that I'm doing for youtube and they had 3 fires back to back because I kept putting out the fire and having her resume the eggs (the stove was not burning, only the counter would be scorched).

      I had a Sim like that during my Pinstar's Legacy Challenge game. One of the two daughters kept setting the kitchen on fire any time she tried to cook a meal. I was able to turn it into quite a chapter, since I was blogging about my Challenge game. Her father, my heir at the time, took her aside and forbade her to cook until she had gained some significant skills in the kitchen. LOL

      It's a challenge. The more worlds you have, the more challenging it gets. My suggestion its don't overdo it. I have been working on making the museum in Willow Creek more interesting. A project I'm still working on. I'm making it into a hang-out for painters.
