ID: a person on the phone looking serious, a text bubble beneath says: "I have hidden a single raisin in every single chocolate chip cookie and muffin in the united states. here's my list of demands"

ID: Jamie Lee Curtis is facing the camera smiling, behind her is a tree, and peeking out from behind it is Mariah Carey dressed in a Santa dress. Jamie turns around to look, but no one is there, she turns back to the camera and looks worried.

I hate my sim carrying loads of stuff for all sorts of reasons (I think it creates lag, I hate having to scroll through a load of items to find what I want, there are bugs where the whole inventory disappears when you do certain things and that seems to happens less when they carry less stuff), so I try to keep the bare minimum on my sim:

• Hikon QX40di Gladiator camera
• Collection Helper
• Potent Invigorating Elixirs (means you never need to sleep)
• Vials of Potent Bliss (cures loneliness and stress)
• Wish Enhancing Serums (doubles all wish points, including lifetime wish for 24hr)
• Jars of Potent Friendship (make almost any sim a good friend, except some NPCs like paparazzi)
• Showers in a can (quick clean)
• Pemmican (quick meal + special moodlet)
• Death flower
• Flame fruit (gives positive moodlet)

But I do like to keep things just in case (as you do), so in their house I have different treasure chests for different things like seeds, gems, metals, inventions, relics, etc where I store most things (this allows for keeping much more junk which also potentially creates lag, but then, so do most things in the game lol and this way it isn't cluttering my space), and then my family inventory in buy mode is mostly free gifts my sim gets from being a celebrity, which I used to keep but now mostly sell.

So, does anyone else have these kinds of systems, or do other people generally not give it much thought at all? 😂

Full length trailer for Sims 5?

Or last ditch attempt to make Sims 4 look more appealing?

I don't see them going back further, and as someone who never moved past Sims 3 (and who generally hates this lazy genre of movie, but especially when it's based on a game that has such open and individually adaptable play), this has very little appeal to me personally.

Thoughts from fellow simmers?

I used to at most do a basic floor plan in ms paint on a 64x64 grid I had saved lol but the more I play around with constrainfloorelevation and the endless design options it opens up, the more I find I need to plan, and the harder it is to get my head around what I should do first, because it becomes so much harder to add and change things later on.

I just completely scrapped a lot I'd been trying to figure out for ages because I realised I'd screwed something up it would take starting almost from scratch to fix, I do want to start again, and to avoid this happening again I've tried laying it out in sketches and diagrams but with having both the terrain and the levels of the build shifted and sometimes overlapping (or, in the case of basement and terrain - not allowed to overlap, which is mostly what's messing me up lol), it gets so confusing and my brain just fries 😂

Probably just going to have to jump in and try to figure it out in practice.
