Extreme difficulty in killing sims by fire?
SendMeLies:
Only way I know to kill townies without a cheat is by drowning.
Daredevils are the easiest to kill.
Meet victim. Talk a bit to make acquaintance. Drive victim to gym.
Let's train! Train for around 1 or 2 hours - exhaustion is not an option here, just want to get them tired.
Let's play! Who can hold breath longer? Well, now you can get tired.
Ask again to hold breath and keep asking (you can even see the icon on their heads).
This strategy won't work with couch potatoes though. And those are the ones I want to kill the most.
Simius:
I was testing out pyromaniacs... I had 8 of them in 1 house constantly starting fires... Unfortunately, they didn't seem to start real fires since they'd go out in about 2 seconds and nothing was damaged. To my delight, a lamp (or something cheap) actually caught on fire and was destroyed after a few hours of this. Then I stopped doing that and 1 last pyromaniac started a fire... a sim with the unlucky trait walked by and he actually burst into flames and died. I was ecstatic... until the grim reaper resurrected him.
Pyromaniacs should really be able to actually start things on fire instead of just pretending to do so.
In my other house all 7 kids (1 teen, 6 children) were off to school. My adult sim started cooking but then left to go to work. The house burnt for a good 4 or 5 hours before anyone got home to panic about it. kids were running everywhere... 5 rooms were torched... but nobody died. 3 hours later my my adult sim finally returned from work and after watching the flames panicking for a while I decided to put them out. It took him a long time, but it was nice that once he put out one fire he'd automatically move on to the next... Multiple times he walked through the flames and got caught in a burning room... Unfortunately he never got burnt.
I wish it was a bit more likely that a sim standing in fire would actually catch on fire. I mean, seriously.
SendMeLies:
But, you see, pyromaniacs think they're pretending to set things on fire, they don't actually want things to burn. It is just so pretty.

My sim had the gold digger LTW- to see the ghost of his rich spouse. He decided to go after Crumplebottom, I tried fire twice it just didn't work either time, her whole kitchen needed replacing, but she never went up in flames. I had decided to just wait for her to die of old age, until stuff started to break. I had her repair the dishwasher, the trash compactor, and finally a stereo. She repaired the first two items with no problem and little skill, but got shocked by the stereo. It gave her a negative moodlet "singed" IIRC it said it would be a good idea to keep her from repairing things until this went away. I made her try again with the stereo while she still had the moodlet, it shocked her again and she died, the paper reported her death by saying she had been struck by lightning 27 times playing with a lightning rod or something.
Were you able to fulfill the wish? I have not been able to fill this wish even when it seems it should have filled. I have my sims talk to their dead spouses but nothing happens.

One of my sims had this LTW and her husband drowned in the pool. She ran outside when Grimmie came and after seeing him rising as a ghost the LTW filled for her.
