THE HORROR: The REAL TS3 Scoop As It Unfolds
dorquemada:
Hit my first bug, seemingly harmless -- the sim hit teen years and his pop's icons everywhere now shows him as a kid. Sometimes it reverts back, but just for a short time. Looks like visual annoyance, because the game treats him as an adult, but -- not sure if it's connected -- opportunities completely stopped coming for him.
Also, Marathon Runner achievement is a waste of space. The guy with it dutifully kicked the bucket on his 90th day, but his sister with no skill lived well into her 95th. Haven't noticed any benefits from Dirt Defiant perk either.

You don't want to do that. It's the most annoying trait in the game: Actions will randomly drop from queue.
Unfortunately, I've done that already, although not a self sim as I tend not to make them. I made an evil / mean-spirited / insane / brave / absentminded sim to be the emperor of evil in the criminal career track. She was pretty fun except for the random queue stompage and that irritating "duuuuuh" sound they make from the absentmindedness.
(The self sim comment I made previously was a lame attempt at self-sporkage.)
Quill:
I've been playing for about a week now and I've been reading the thread. I've seen a few of the bugs others have reported, but I've got one that's really pissing me off. I just noticed today that the daughter of two of my sims is missing one of her traits. I distinctly remember being able to choose her traits, since I'm annoyingly controlling and generally pretty good at keeping them happy. I created her with Excitable and Friendly as a toddler, and when she grew from toddler to kid she got Bookworm. She's still got the toddler traits, but she's missing Bookworm. Her brother has all of his traits, and he went through the same process, including being created as a toddler.
It could be that I somehow canceled her traits after adding them. It's very easy to not add a trait you think you've added to the list, but I think it warns you if you try to leave the window without filling all the trait slots. Anyone able to confirm or deny that vague memory?
Also, a request for a mod - Gardening for idiots: macro - Fertilize all that need fertilizing with X. It's very difficult to see which leafy green plants need to be fertilized without clicking on them, and I've got a gardening sim. If it turns out that different types of plants do better with different fertilizer, it could be based on plant type instead of all types. Also, as someone mentioned before: macro - Turn on all sprinklers. Which idiot thought it was a good idea to make us click on each of them to turn them on, and to turn them off? It's an exercise in frustration.
LFox:
Missing traits is a known bug. It tends to happen most often when the window with traits on your sim is open when selecting them. However my last kids a set of twins for some reason when aging up to young adults only had the option to add a 4th trait and not a 5th. Overall the trait selection is screwy. Always check your traits after selecting them and if some are missing use debug mode to click on your sim to open the trait selection again.

Dirt defiant significantly slows down hygiene decay for my Sims. My nonathletic Dirt Defiant Sims only need a shower around every 3rd day.
