I think it's a good idea to have a Did You Know thread, I have sometimes wanted a place to post cool little things you've discovered that isn't worth starting a thread over.
For example I only just recently discovered that your sim doesn't actually need to
answer the phone to get the opportunities that are offered over the phone. You can just ignore the call and it's only calls from other sims that are actually ignored, the opportunities still show up. Well, this was news to me, I thought you had to always answer the phone to not miss anything. I haven't tried switching off the phone yet but I'm guessing that works the same way.
There are already lots of nice little tips on this forum but they tend to get buried in other threads. We could post them here so people have a place to look for them.
Things like this:
- You can drag newspapers and dirty plates to the trash can so the sim doesn't need to clean them up.
- Putting the rubber duck on the bathtub gives the sims a positive moodlet from taking a bath with a ducky.
- You can call sims on the phone by clicking their picture in the relationship panel instead of going through the phone menu.
- Your sim doesn't really need to Dispose All Dead Plants, you can move or delete plants in Buy mode.
