Story Progression Toggle: Is it borked?

<< < (28/31) > >>

Mikkey:
I have now moved some of the adult kids out and turned free will on low. Now all my sims just stand around and story progression still doesn't work as it should. Two days after I turned it on low one of the sons adopted a baby (he didn't even have a job yet, just moved out of the parents' home) and some couple got married  >:(

J. M. Pescado:
Unrelated, and the baby parthenogenesis issue has been noted already.

Slymenstra:
I stupidly recreated all of Pleasantview to match Bella and Mortimer.  I then made them all houses to match their needs and money status.  Decorated them, moved each family in and got them jobs. This part was fun.

Then I was playing with Mary-Sue in the park and noticed this old man carrying Darren Dreamer.  I was like...why??  Went to "Edit Town" and found:

The Lotharios just up and disappeared, the Dreamers MOVED in with the old couple, the Clavell's. and then Darleen Matlapin's (Dirk Dreamer's Mom) up and moved off the planet as well.  In one sim day!

No messages in the newspaper of their moves either :(

Will this be fixed in the upcoming Awesomeness?  Why the hell can't the game move around the stupid EAxis townies!  Why my carefully made sims!  I didn't even get to enjoy them for 1 day...lame.  I knew this could happen because I saw it before...but 3 families totally changed in 1 day.

Lerf:
It's a feature!  You're going to learn to love it, honest.  Real Simmers keep assuring us that you should only play one Sim at a time anyway.     :P

simsdesperado:
Could it be that changes to the town population are affected by the life length of the neighbourhood, and they happen with a lesser frequency on epic lifespan? I have played for about 30 more sim days and I still haven't found any notices in the paper about sims moving, dieing, or new births. Eventually, I did find a new baby in the Clavell household where I knew there wasn't one previously. I checked on the baby and indeed it has no mother.
