Which hacks cause resets?
cwykes:
So I should plan for reset motives and activities rather than manoeuvering to avoid it. Ok that makes sense.
What else gets reset? Time? Age I really don't want it to get set to Monday morning - just missed the school bus - by doing something silly. And I really don't want sims going back to the beginning of a life stage.... I've had that happen with sims moved around and packaged!

I don't think time gets reset - only the sims do. I recently played the vanilla base game (to see all the scenarios before reinstalling the EPs and SPs), and many of the houses were set to evening or night-time when I entered them. I'm not sure about ages, but I seem to recall that Olive Specter was just about to keel over, and the Grunt teenagers were quite close to becoming adults, so I don't think the ages get reset either.

No, time and day only resets to Monday morning when you move to a new house. Daniel Pleasant was just a few days from elder, and Mortimer Goth was 2-3 days from meeting the Grim Reaper, so that's safe. Only their motives are reset, and they assume a default stance, standing straight up with their elbows slightly bent for older sims, and toddlers will be on the floor on all fours. Babies usually are lying on the floor beside the crib. Nothing else I can think of gets reset. Sometimes if sims are in bed when this happens, the covers will still look like there is someone under them, but this is easily remedied. Oh, and you probably know that if sims had a stuck smart milk bit, they will lose that too. If the sims have cars, make sure they are all home because I've lost several cars that had been driven to work before I saved and installed something in the meantime. If there is a carpool or schoolbus when you save the lot, the driver will be standing outside the car. You won't be able to interact with them, but they will walk off the lot and another carpool will come. Dirty dishes and food left out sometimes act strange. That's all I can think of right now.

Left out books will be standing straight up, as well.

Oh, if you have pets, they will be sunk halfway through the ground!
