I've had 3 different bed fires.  The beds just burst into flames, or the sims in them do.  The first time it happened, the old couple died, after that I installed sprinklers above all beds so the other 2 times it happened no one died.


Was this post-Seasons? I mean, were they possibly spontaneously combusting from overheating in their own beds?

J. M. Pescado:
There's a few bugs pertaining to the warmth/cold behaviors in general. A fix is currently in testing to address some of the more bizarre issues and inconsistencies. SHC will be reduced from the current "happens constantly" levels to very exceedingly rare levels. Currently SHC has a 1% chance of occurring per hour, which, as any wargamer can tell you, is a frequency that will happen constantly, sort of like how units can't hit jack shit with a 99% hit chance. Odds this high tend to frequently result in the inexplicable destruction of orbiting fusion-powered starcruisers at the hands of spear-wielding natives.

I had a visiting Sim combust in the hot tub (the Aspiration rewards one with the roses floating out of it). I should've let him go - I would have had my fire death. This should be fun, however, since there are constantly guests out in my Sims' hot tubs until the early hours of the morning and there aren't always household members around to put them out. I should have my fire death by the time the fix is ready.

How are sims even catching fire when they're immersed in water? I hate to point out the obvious, but water tends to put fires out instantly, or at least quickly (which is why the sprinklers work). You'd think the game engine would be smart enough to at least figure out that a sim in a hot-tub wouldn't normally catch fire. Electrocution, sure, but fire? ::)

MsMaria:
I've heard the kitten killer is responsible for the bed fires. It may have been updated since then, but it definitely caused a conflict.
