Better Use of the SimVac?
Ancient Sim:
I have recently started using the SimVac on obnoxious townies, but I am somewhat confused by it. The only Sims who can use it are those with Gold or Platinum aspiration, who in aspiration terms are doing OK thanks very much. The ones who NEED aspiration points and would actually gain something by sucking them out of the obnoxious townies can't use it! Is there any way the rule can be altered for this object so that Sims on green (or worse) can use this object to get themselves back into a more acceptable position? I would have thought that was the whole point of using it in the first place (apart from watching the obnoxious townies suffer, of course).
LK:
Only Gold or above Sims can use it because--follow me here--it is an Aspiration Reward object.
As for its function, I think it is supposed to suck skill points from other Sims, who then become pissed off and kick your gnome or something (not a euphemism).
Oddysey:
It seems to be intended more as a user prop/torture device than as an item with an actual use. A purpose at which it succeeds quite remarkably, if properly implemented. Although nothing can beat buyable fire.
Ancient Sim:
Yes, I know it's an Aspiration Reward object, but does that mean the code can't be altered so it can serve a better purpose? All that happens to the 'vacced' Sim is that they run off the lot, leaving someone platinum instead of gold, or platinum instead of platinum. I would rather see a Sim who was previously red turn green or gold, or a green one turn gold or platinum. It seems totally wasted otherwise, because when you've seen one Sim run off, you've seen 'em all.
Trubble:
I use it to lower sim relationships... but that's just me. (Continuing the torture theme here Oddysey)
