Question about Tombstones and Resurrection
cwykes:
Do they become part of the family on the lot where they are resurrected? Wanda Melody Tinker died at a friend's party & the friend's parents are already sick of the ghost. They don't want a resurrected teen living there instead though! I guess they should pass the borrowed reaperphone onto the "grieving" parents - well they grieved for a bit, but have probably forgotten all about her by now!
I guess it's not a good idea to resurrect a YA outside the Uni sub-hood. I'm not sure I want to find out whether the YA just ages up or whether weirdness & borkage results.
I suppose you can't use the reaperphone on a residential lot unless there is space in the family for an extra sim. DK if that's true of dorms, but using the SS lot sounds like a good idea.
EDIT - I had confused the names. Melody died - not Wanda.

Yes, they become part of the family. I generally teleport them out as townies once they're resurrected, or get them to "find own place" and move out (if I want them to be playable).

Never done this. I have summoned a YA to a residential lot and made them part of the family. I generally just age them up. Not sure why this would not work with a resurrected sim. Standard borkage may occur (i.e. sim not aging properly), but this is fixable.

I never have lots that full. I don't think I've ever had a residential lot with more than 6 sims on it. However, to be safe, I suppose you could resurrect the sim on a lot that has fewer sims. I generally have one lot that I use as a "Welcome Centre" for the hood, where I send all my newly made CAS townies to be customized before they are townified. This lot has one "dormant playable" sim on it. That sort of lot would be ideal for resurrecting sims.
DrNerd:
AFAIK, you absolutely can't resurrect a YA on a non-Uni lot, and can't even Tombstone/InSim them dead on a non-Uni lot. I believe if you try to have someone in the regular 'hood try to rez a YA, the YA doesn't show up as someone who could be brought back. That or they flicker in and disappear. I remember someone tried to rez a YA in their regular 'hood once, but I don't entirely recall what happened.
I haven't had problems with rezzing YAs at Uni, though. They just become part of the household, but it's easy enough to move their lazy, smelly asses out and re-Dormie-fy them if you feel like it.
Emma:
I use this when resurrecting sims. Works just fine, although resurrected teens cannot be townified, they just go in the adoption pool. I tend to keep them in the family and immediately send their asses off to uni.
J. M. Pescado:
There's no reason why 12s cannot be townified. The Hacked Ingelogical Shrub I use for the job accomplishes this just fine for me.
