Awesome Story Driver Beta-Testing reports
Kyna:
Story mode had a sim marry a single parent of a toddller, and the toddler was kicked out of the house by the new male. There was enough bed/crib capacity for the new wife & her toddler.
Now the toddler is in a homeless family all by herself, with §0 so she will slowly starve to death as she can't earn. The mother can't call the toddler to invite her over. How do I reunite the toddler with her mother? If I familyfund the toddler some money will ASM put her in a house, so that I can then merge her back with her mother?
Inge:
Can't you merge the toddler with a family, in Edit Town mode?

However, one thing I am still noticing with the romance occurrences is that married Sims (sometimes recently, i.e. newlyweds) are meeting other Sims at various locations for "hook-ups". Not sure if this was intentionally left in or not. It's not excessive, and so I guess it goes to realism.
Oh, I hope this is a feature and Pescado doesn't touch anything. My flirty/charismatic sims are having a ball, and I am waiting for the big blow up. Moar fight, please! The only thing that I wish that the spouses don't stay home while their husband/wife is out playing. I need them to catch the do.

Can't you evict the toddler and merge in with the mother's new household from "Edit Town"? It is not an attractive way to do move-ins, but that is the only way I can think to do it.
Inge beat me to it. :D

I have noticed that some Sims will arbitrarily quit their jobs, but I guess that's to be expected. It's not everyone. However, one thing I am still noticing with the romance occurrences is that married Sims (sometimes recently, i.e. newlyweds) are meeting other Sims at various locations for "hook-ups". Not sure if this was intentionally left in or not. It's not excessive, and so I guess it goes to realism.
If the sims in question are Flirty, Commitment Issues, or worse, both, they tend to do this. If they aren't, the partnering code is still bugged. But if they are, this is working as designed. Those sims cheat.

Sounds like this is working as planned, albeit in a corner case that was probably not supposed to ever trigger unless you prodded it that way. As is typical, the new male drives out the spawn of the previous weak, unfit male. Had she perhaps gotten one of those effete weaklings not in touch with their male instincts, perhaps this would not have happened, but this is life. Let it play out and let me know how it goes. I am curious how you managed to trigger a corner-case subroutine that was not intended for service at this stage, but let's see what happens.

I have one male sim with the flirty, good-kisser, commitment issues, and inappropriate that have been with every female of age in my game. I have seen him hooking up at least 2 times a night, til I got a message that there were no victims to romance one night. I had fun following his escapades.
Will the storymode allow him to pollinate some of the women he is messing with or only with his spouse? Also is the code written for the spouse to stay home while he is out? I would really love to see him caught, or at least in trouble with other spouses. Really I have 2 males and 1 female that are cheating all over town cause of their traits, and all of them are married.
