I have a situation with my played sims. I do rotational game play. my sim gets a phone call one of my sims died then I am looking over my households and another has a 3rd child! My sims never die unless I make it happen or they're an elder. Are neighborhood stories causing this? Something is causing havoc in my played households. 😢

That's what got me. I just saw you can set it for each household. I went to an earlier save and got back my sim that died. The baby is still there for the other house, I can deal with that lol.
Glad you got it sorted out. Phew. While I do enjoy reading the tidbits of what's happening in other households (reminds me of the newspaper my Sims had to read to know what was going on in the world around them), I have lost more important NPCs than one can imagine. I just made certain to adjust the NS for the masses, and double-checked my played families, too.

I have my played sims set up exactly as I want for story purposes then I started getting notifications my sim died, my sim has another baby. She already has 2 toddlers and I didn't want the second but let it go and was in shock to see a 3rd baby. My friend told me to check NS for each house. That's what did it lol. Very, very strange deaths going on when checking the mailbox to see what's going on in the hood.
I don't know how to get rid of the 3rd baby. 2 tots and a newborn are a bit much for me. Love playing families but I space the kids out. I feel guilty for not wanting the 3rd baby lol.
Or you can go into Household Manager and do settings for all played households (My Households), and then settings for all Other Households. Note that these two are separate, even though they look like the same button in the interface.
Or you can go into Game Options and turn the whole system off, if you don't want it on at all.
I don't mind if they adopt a pet but having one baby after another was crazy and dying. I was in such shock lol.
for neighborhood stories, I have everything off for my Sims, and have edited some for Sims I don't play, to prevent unwanted things from happening.
