Title: Vistor autonomously clean
Post by: PlayLives on 2006 January 06, 03:43:52
Have you ever had a vistor autonomously clean your sims home? The Diva (who is in love with one of my sims) was at his house alone with his teen son and she started cleaning (picking up food on floor, pulling weeds). She has 5 neat points (checked using mirror). She always comes over almost everyday like she lives there anyway (not even ringing doorbell just walking in) however, is this behavior normal?

I've had a few visitors (such as kids brought home from school) that I ignored, and they started to garden. 'Ok, ignore me if you want, I'll show you...I'll GARDEN!"

I've had random sims garden as well..never clean though.

Except nannies..don't make friends with them....they take over your household while they're just over for a friendly visit.
And then proceed to pee on your floors =P  THAT..they don't clean up.

Yeah, I see it all the time in my game, the gardening occassionally too.

Neat Virgos frequently garden!  When Daniel and Mary sue broke up and she went to lick her wounds in the little hut in the woods, Daniel came over and trimmed all the shrubs!  He didn't wash up though!

Sims who are extremely outgoing won't bother to ring the door bell.  They'll just walk right in like they own the place.  The Diva and Mr. Big will do this.  I've even seen Lazlo Curious do it.

Keanu Broke does it all the time!  and I've frequently seen Laszlo do it, but they do have to be on virtually best friend terms as a rule.  A lot of very outgoing sims will just turn up unannounced and hop into the hot tub or go for a swim!

And if they invade your hottub you'll most likely have to tell them goodbye while they're nekkid.  Stupid outgoing sims...   >:(

I've noticed the Grand Vampires will walk right in without ringing the doorbell too! Cheeky things...

When I was testing headmaster scenarios, I once had a headmaster start pulling weeds.  I figured I'd better get one of my Sims to help him. :)

Hope he was suitably impressed!  And tell me, if you can, Maxis has a male maid (sometimes two) in most hoods, male and female burglars, cops, firefighters etc., but no headmistresses and no male nannies!

Nor male social workers, or female repomen (errr.. repowomen). There aren't male cheerleaders (thankfully) either.

Are you kidding? Male cheerleaders are HAWT! Have you Seen Bring It On? Lol!  :D

You know what, now that I think of it, I'm gonna see if I can turn that Meadow Thayer cheerleader into a male. :P I wonder if there are Male Cheerleader NPC outfits. And if not... then Maybe I can make one or request one to be made. Hehe.

As far as I know, the Llama mascot is the male version of a cheerleader. Both do exactly the same things (i.e. school cheer, and beat up cow mascots), and I think the skill points are identical as well.

Post by: syberspunk on 2006 January 06, 12:46:33
True... but the Llama costume isn't exactly that much of a turn on... At least for me. :P I'm not into the whole furry culture, but whatever floats yer boat. ;)

I've had that happen to my sims too, usually the garden needs a good weeding so I'm not complaining ;)


Title: Re: Vistor autonomously clean
Post by: Hook on 2006 January 06, 13:59:38
I had one house where I just let the weeds grow.  It needed a good garden, and I figured the weeds looked as good as anything else.  One day, Abhijeet came over as a visitor and pulled all my weeds!

If they're gonna do that kind of stuff, they might as well trim hedges and water flowers that need it. :)

Pity Sophie doesn't get stuck into the garden instead of one of the sim teen friend's parents!  She might still be alive if she had...........

I wondered why she would do this! I figured she was either hopelessly in love or desperately lonely. She wasn't that hard to snag like the guide said. She is the only sim thus far that I've seen do some pretty wild autonomous things. She even beat up the nanny one day when she was over (invited herself in).

This also happens when the front door is very close to the street, or if they live on the yard.  Sims walk right off the street into your er..housular area and help themselves to your amenities.

On downtown lots sims will autonamously clean including townies.  I guess it is new to nightlife since before I only saw Sims do some gardening they never clean-up plates while they were invited over or just when they barge in the house.

So it could be possible some Sims will do that from now on.

I've only rarely had sims autonomously clean when they're visiting ... but visiting sims do my gardening for me all the time! It's actually really handy, since I almost never hire a gardener.

Funnily enough there is a special mirror out there that will invoke this type of behavior on a regular basis. Its quite handy.

Inge has a hack to keep your sims from clearing their plates while downtown.  It's very annoying because I sure don't clean up my plate when I go out to eat.

I've also had visiting sims pull weeds when bored.  I think it might have to do with neatness, because Beau is high in neatness.  I've even seen them pull out hedge clippers from somewhere and start trimming after they finish the weeds if I don't interrupt them.

I've never seen them clean up in the house that I can remember, except for neat sims cleaning their plate when they finish eating.

Seconded. Then I could actually have a realistic George W. Bush college sim in my game. ;D
