Quick townie-making question

(1/3) > >>

Insanity Prelude:
Is it safe for Sims to have family ties when you make them into townies/downtownies/localies/whathaveyou? Since CAS won't let me make teens or kids without them, and I thought it would be nicer to the Burb family to make them townies instead of killing them this time... I'd like to avoid breaking my hood.

(Tried typing "townie family ties" into search and got a lot about the townie families, but not whether they can be, you know, families. Yeah.)

Madame Mim:
It doesn't seem to do any harm when I've done it in my game.

That said you do know that it is easy enough to remove the family ties in SimPE later if you want to don't you? Firstly, in 'Sim Description', you edit the relationships page to remove the family toggle and the relation-ship type (top and bottom) for all the Sims. Then you go into 'Family Ties' and remove the relationships there for all the Sims.

Insanity Prelude:
Actually, I never explored that in SimPE (I haven't done much with it.) Thanks for the tip :)

jolrei:
There is no harm in townies having family ties.  You can remove these relationships using SimPE after creating them, if you wish.  You can also make just adult sims, with no family ties, and age some of them down to teen afterwards using a hack (if you have one).

Madame Mim:
The only disadvantage with that method is if you're using something like ACR which calculates fertility based on days lived. Although aging down does reset the age it doesn't reset the days lived which means that you can end up with Sims that are technically infertile if ever you should wish to play them again.
