Give Birth and Drop Dead

Ancient Sim's Site?
I quite agree about freewill, turn it off and they're hanging around like a lot of morons waiting to be told what to do! And I love watching them when they do something truly surprising! Like big brothers autonomously going to tuck the kid brother or sister up in bed! That's so cute!

Why do you need to turn the free will off? I never turn it off, and my sims always wait a second or two for my orders, then do as they wish. Besides, you always can cancel their activity, and give them another order.
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, some people do play with it turned off.

Yeah and you don't even have to turn it off. Autonomic actions that is. They just cancel out on their own and do the thing you want them to do. I just couldn't play with free will off. Only time I turn it off is when I need to do a portrait shot of a family or couple and need them to sit and or stand in specific places without popping to the potty or something.

Things are getting even weirder in Pleasantview now and I think maybe the end is near ...
I posted recently about the almost $6m Simoleans that a moving-in Sim brought and mentioned that one of her housemates on campus, Allegra Gorey, couldn't move out after graduating and so I moved her in along with this insanely rich Sim. I then moved her straight out into her own place. Once there, for some reason she was unable to wear the new clothes she'd bought. Turned out they were YA clothes and she had an adult body. Similarly, when she got a job, her college details were in the panel instead of her job ones (this happened to another Sim who had 'issues' moving out). I went into SimPE and unticked her "On Campus" token and she was OK ... or so I thought.
She invited Castor Nova over and had her very first woo-hoo. No precautions were taken and she became pregnant. Castor was living with Brittany Upsnott (both of them changed to Romance), but left her to move in with Allegra the day the baby was due. Castor was asleep when Allegra was giving birth. After the baby was born, she played with him then put him in his cot. As soon as she'd done this, she clutched at her throat and died. She had the 'flu, but apart from hygiene her stats were fine. I reckon she died because the game had no idea how old she was. I woke Castor up, but he couldn't plead for her as the Reaper had his back to him and there was no way to pass him as he was standing in a doorway with Allegra's body in front of him. Pity, I liked Allegra, but I'm not cheating to bring her back so she'll just have to stay dead. Poor baby though, so far his one and only memory is of the death of his mother.
Thought I'd just let you know, Ancient Sim, that my allegra is alive and well and the mother of twins!!! Only wierd happening is that for some unknown reason both she and Martin Ruben were unable to graduate Summa etc. and had to start way down near the bottom of their career ladder!
My Allegra was already living with Castor at Uni, and behaving much more like a Family sim than Jane! Anyway, everyone of them moved out with no trouble (and I'd removed all the Move Out fixes because they caused problems in Pleasantview), Allegra moved in with Castor and got pregnant - they only tried once, but she did eat a lot of Macaroni and Cheese and Gelatin! Next thing I knew she was having twins (Tristram and Isolde - well, they had to have wierd names!!!) and she's doing a great job of looking after them! I've got a few pics if you'd like to see them, just don't know if there is an easy way to get them to you.
