Where are all the townies?
crunk:
Eevilcat, try adding more starter-type homes to the neighborhood. I'm having a problem with my hood with homeless sim and adding starter homes seems to be resolving the issue.

Using Awesomemod? Pes is trying to make it more intelligent in placing families, but that is resulting in it just failing to do so because all the families generate with $20k and they almost never get jobs, so they won't earn enough to afford appropriate housing.
1. Cheat console, type "listhomeless"
2. Write down the last names you see.
3. Family fund them some money. I start with $40k for everyone.
4. Cheat console, type "runstoryaction Move In Household"
5. Repeat until you get a message that it failed.
6. Family fund remainders higher amounts of money.
7. Repeat steps 4-6 until all are moved in.
If you have families with around 6-8 members, you may find that they simply can't be placed because none of the lots have enough beds. That can be fixed by shoving beds on lots.
Lorelei:
In RV, I find that empty commlots fill up with townies after my controlled Sims arrive and start doing something. Occasioanlly I'll see them out gardening or commuting to and from work, but usually they don't show up until I've lurked in one spot long enough for the game to generate them there.
Doc Doofus:
This is different, but may be related. I have had sims vanish from townie-occupied lots, but in EditTown, they are still listed as living on the lot. I had this happen with two sims, so far, one of them a newborn larva. When the family was selected, there was no baby anywhere, no icon on the left for the missing larva, but the parents had the newborn baby moodlet and the baby showed up in their relationship panel.
I fixed it by going back to Edittown, SPLITTING the household to move the infant and one parent out, then moving them back into the same household.
A similar thing happened with the Goth family. Mortimer's wife disappared from the family, while I wasn't looking. When I went back, she was still in the relationship panel but she had no icon on the left. Nobody could call or invite her. EditTown still showed her living there. The fix: I split her out of the family in EditTown then placed her back in the family. All fixed.

For some odd reason my familyfunds cheat is non-existent. I ran the "help" console after attempting it several times. Listhomeless works like a dream, though.
Also, is "runstoryaction Move In Household" only a feature of Supreme Commander? I prefer to play with that part of the awesomemod disabled.
