Some Refuse To Die
unregister:
Most pesky and ugly townies are easy to kill off, others refuse to die no matter what is done to them.
Pong King is the latest of those that just won't leave the sim world. I've reduced his needs to bright red. I've used the tombstone of L&D and tried each option. I've turned him into a Plant Sim and deprived him of water, sun, and love. I've used the lot debugger to 'smite' him in violent succession while all his needs were reduced. I even made a small swimming pool, got him in and took the ladder away. I have aged him to an elder and tried all methods to kill him. He still lives, and refuses to die.
Is it just that some sims are made not to die? What is the best way to kill these hanger ons quickly and with less torture? I think he once was an annoying kid who wouldn't stop coming around and constantly followed my sim kids off the school bus.
Can he be killed and how? Thank you for any information on how to eliminate unwanted sims.

This happened to me after loading FT (don't know if it happened before FT because I hadn't tested it). Anyhow, I forgot about clean templates, and ended up with a lot of FT townies that I wanted gone (See Matysdoorp killing spree story featuring Snowbawl). They resolutely refused to die, or rather, they would die and then get back up again.
My solution was to teleport them into a lot and make them part of the household (no longer townies) and then kill them. I can attest that they have remained dead following this method. Make sure you have notownieregen installed to ensure that new townies do not regenerate (unless of course you want new townies to regenerate).

Alexx mentioned that there's a hidden +5 on hunger and some other motive (energy?) recently with FT, which explains our townie-killing woes. I used Inge's teleporter to make them selectable and then aged them/killed them by old age.

Huh -- that may explain why I haven't had any dormie deaths since installing FT, in spite of some going full red on everything.

Yes, just download a snowbawl and an assault rifle, you'll be back in business in no time.
