Things that annoy you in the Sims

[Candyd]

- Wishes from Generations - adult sims who absolutely want to play hopscotch or pillow fight with their best friends or coworkers
- The attraction system, seems like it was made to make the player lose control of his sims and to make sims cheat on their partner - so unbearable that I installed mods to disable it
- Pets who can't stand music or TV and interrupt what they were doing just because they hate music
- Too many celebrities, too many vampires
- For celebrities, best friends and family who believe stupid rumors spread by paparazzi
- And of course, sims playing all day long with the sprinkler like kids even when they're starving or exhausted !

There is absolutely one thing that annoys me when a large family is involved and one of them is in the daycare profession.

It seems everyone loves to interrupt any after-school children from completing their homework by using various social interactions. It's gotten to the point that I have to get everyone occupied with something just to get the children to finish it and then throw Vials of Potent Bliss at them to satisfy their moods in time.

When sims are obsessed with the jelly bean bush and eat jelly beans until they die! I forgot I even had a jelly bean bush on my dynasty lot until Claire Ursine's granddaughter wandered over and ate one! I didn't even know she did it until the camera panned over and Grim appeared. Sigh. Needless to say, the bush has been located and deleted :|

Jelly beans don't kill sims if eaten autonomously (unless they get very hungry or catch fire while you ignore them).

I had a sim die by autonomous jelly bean eating out behind the elixir shop. Admittedly I was completely ignoring him.

Yeah, I've also had a sim die of autonomous jelly bean eating, admittedly when I first noticed the bush existed and put one down on the lot. Now I scour the different lots trying to locate and destroy those evil things! I hate my sims dying at the best of time, but dying by their own greed is just way too much for me!

There are two eat jelly bean interactions, one autonomous and the other is user directed only. In both cases you may get a positive or negative moodlet but only the user directed one causes electrocution, fire (excluding Too Spicy) or jelly bean death.

[Magpie2012]

See now that's blatantly untrue. I have had a sim walk to the bush of his own free will, pick a bean again of his own free will, willingly eat it and die... Autonomous death by jelly bean is completely possible...

[kusurusu]

If autonomous death by jelly bean is possible, did anyone get autonomous electrocution/catching fire?

[Annabec]

I've gotten both^^

[kusurusu]

So, I just used a 100 % chance of dying mod and my sims still won't kill themselves on free will (or cause one of the other two outcomes). And no, those chances are not weighted.

p.s. Are your games up-to-date?

[KRae]

My game is up-to-date and when this happened the only mods in use were overwatch and error trap. I not sure what kind of bean he ate, but he had an interesting looking ghost. I sent him to the elixir store and left him to his own devises for hours. Maybe he got hungry and addicted to jellybeans.

[Magpie2012]

Yup, my game always gets updated as soon as a new update becomes available... I've had autonomous electrocution and fire too... Usually when ur handy sim trys to fix a broken stereo or dishwasher or your wanna-be-master-chef decides to cook a meal unwatched!

I was talking about the outcomes of eating a jelly bean (autonomously) and not cooking/repairing.

Anyway, did you ever have inactive sims killed by jelly beans? Or do your sims have the insane trait?

[Magpie2012]

I obviously haven't played with jelly beans enough! By inactive, do you mean non-household townies? Because I have had them eat the jelly beans and die, but for the most part they just seem to change colour.
