Fire!
« on: May 11, 2013, 09:20:07 AM »
I always have a certain sim couple I play with (My simself and my boyfriend's simself) and I sent them to university once.

I put them in a dorm (I don't remember which one, sorry.) and picked a room and everything.

Everything went well until every other roommate just started to cook their own food. One of the females ended up setting the stove on fire.

So everyone panicked because there was a giant fire. Boyfriend-sim called the firefighters twice.

2 firefighters arrived but they didn't do much. Boyfriend-sim tried to help putting the fire out but then this happened.



I know he's hot but his butt shouldn't catch on fire.

Luckily, he didn't die. He ended up signed and I teleported him to their room and tried to keep him there. It took me a few tries though.

He already had about 3 near-death experiences that day.

I teleported my sim to their room, too. I couldn't lock the doors during a fire so I just kept canceling their "Fire!!!" actions.

After a little while I just kept getting messages that the firefighters couldn't reach the fire. I thought it was weird.

The fire stopped after a while but it had taken someone. Everyone in the dorm got the moodlet of witnessing death.



My sims were okay, but everyone else in the dorm was just crying all day and screaming about the person that died. They didn't go to their classes, they didn't eat, they didn't sleep, etc.

So they ended up falling asleep in their own puddles of pee while smelling like hobo and it disgusted my sims because they were just lying in around in the hallway.

My sim used the cry on shoulder and cheer up interaction a lot, and the moodlet just disappeared for them after 2/3 sim days.

But the roommates just kept crying and I don't know why.

Anyone else had this experience with a dorm in University life?   :-\

I've had the fires happen a lot.   I started removing the stoves when I went to Uni and just letting them have extra microwaves.

That sucks. :-\

Maybe next time I'll get a handy sim and let them upgrade the stoves to fireproof.

I lock every door leading to the kitchen and put a barista bar in the dining room. No more kitchen fires, and my Sim can still bake honey peppermint cookies.

EDIT - If your locked kitchen doors are archways, the dorm mates will scream and stomp about not having access. Use a double door instead. You can set the lock only allowing your Sim, and the dorm mates act like the kitchen doesn't even exist.

You'll need to feed the dorm mates somehow, though. They're always hungry. A barista bar works well if you also have a sink or dishwasher in the same room.
