Title: NoAgingSwarm not working Post by: Fifth LMNt on 2009 October 27, 02:12:10 Having this feature enabled stops Sims from dropping everything when someone grows up except if they are sleeping. Sleeping sims still wake up to go celebrate the birthday.
Title: Re: NoAgingSwarm not working Post by: ciane on 2009 October 27, 02:22:03 The no swarming works when there is no birthday cake and the Sim just spins and ages.
With the birthday cake, you get a party and must cancel the interaction as soon as the aging Sim gets to the cake. Title: Re: NoAgingSwarm not working Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2009 October 27, 02:57:42 You bought a CAKE, and then you DON'T want a party? I don't follow. If you want to age up unceremoniously, don't get a cake. The cake is a lie!
Title: Re: NoAgingSwarm not working Post by: Tever on 2009 October 27, 11:11:45 The cake is a lie! No, it wasn't; it just wasn't for you. Title: Re: NoAgingSwarm not working Post by: Fifth LMNt on 2009 October 28, 13:53:53 LOL!
The problem is that they took away the option to just age up. So if you don't want to wait around until 8/9 pm of the last day and have it interrupt whatever they're doing, then you have to use a cake. I see the point though, how then would you distinguish when you DO want a party with everyone in attendance. Although, people who have chosen to go to bed wouldn't typically wake up to go watch the candles being blown out...

Can't remember which setting enables it, probably debuginteractions, but there is one to "Trigger Age Transition", I have used this from time to time to age sims when I have aging turned off, and want to age a couple of sims, or I want to simply move them along faster, without the cake/party hassle.

Sounds right, and the other option that shows is to change their traits. I tend to forget which cheats turn what options on, as I often turn the two debug ones on at different times as well. |
